When it comes to selecting connectors, there is an important factor that cannot be ignored, and that is the high and low temperature resistance performance. Most devices operate in environments with temperature fluctuations, and extreme high or low temperatures can pose a threat to the normal operation of connectors. Therefore, industrial connectors with reliable high and low temperature resistance performance are required for use in harsh temperature environments.
Lingke Electrical’s YM series, including different sizes such as M20 and M24, offers power connectors, multi-core and RJ45 signal connectors, as well as USB data connectors, with a high and low temperature resistance performance ranging from -25°C to 85°C. These connectors are widely used in outdoor or harsh industrial environments.
Understanding High and Low Temperature Resistance Performance:
Research data suggests that temperature accounts for 40% of the environmental stress impacting the reliability of electronic products. Therefore, the influence of environmental temperature on connector reliability cannot be overlooked. The impact of environmental temperature on connectors is mainly evaluated through the indicators of high temperature resistance and low temperature resistance.
So, what exactly do high temperature resistance and low temperature resistance refer to?
High temperature resistance performance refers to the ability of a connector to function properly in a specific temperature environment, while the material retains the required mechanical and physical properties. On the other hand, low temperature resistance performance is generally represented by the brittle temperature. The lower the brittle temperature, the better the low temperature resistance. The rigidity gradually increases as the environmental temperature decreases until a certain temperature is reached, at which point the material transitions from being rigid to becoming brittle.
Reasons behind YM Connectors’ Outstanding High and Low Temperature Resistance:
Lingke Electrical, as a professional manufacturer of industrial waterproof connectors, has deep technical expertise in ensuring connector reliability. Each model of their aviation plug connectors offers excellent high and low temperature resistance performance. Let’s explore how Lingke Electrical achieves this level of temperature resistance with their YM series products.
Outdoor engineering plastics:
The YM series industrial waterproof connectors from Lingke Electrical are made of imported high-performance outdoor engineering plastics, capable of meeting the environmental temperature requirements from -25°C to 85°C.
Within this temperature range, the main body of the YM connector does not soften or deform due to high temperatures, nor does it lose flexibility or become brittle at low temperatures, ensuring normal operation.
Insulation materials:
The insulation materials used in connectors are affected by environmental temperature in the atmosphere, leading to a decrease in insulation resistance. This can result in excessive leakage current generating heat, and if the connector remains in such an environment for an extended period, insulation failure may occur.
To address this, Lingke Electrical uses high-performance outdoor engineering plastic materials for the insulators of YM connectors, meeting the wide temperature range of -25°C to 85°C. This effectively prevents insulation failure caused by harsh environmental temperatures.
High and low temperature testing
The YM series connectors from Lingke Electrical employ imported high-performance outdoor engineering plastics with an RTI-str value of 140°C. Witness laboratories authorized by UL and TUV conducted low-temperature tests at -40°C/2h and high-temperature tests at 125°C/7 days on the YM series products, following national standards.
The high and low temperature resistance performance of the products meets the standard requirements. Additionally, the YM series has obtained UL certification, TUV certification, CQC certification, and other professional certifications, meeting the environmental temperature requirements within the range of -25°C to 85°C.
Conclusion:
Lingke Electrical’s YM series industrial waterproof connectors demonstrate outstanding high and low temperature resistance performance due to their use of high-performance outdoor engineering plastics that meet wide temperature ranges. These connectors are designed to maintain their functionality, mechanical properties, and insulation performance under extreme temperature conditions. With stringent testing and certifications, Lingke Electrical ensures that their YM series connectors can reliably operate in a temperature range from -25°C to 85°C, making them suitable for outdoor and harsh industrial environments.
By prioritizing high and low temperature resistance, Lingke Electrical provides a reliable solution for customers seeking connectors capable of withstanding challenging temperature environments.
