SHARE

 

 

 

When it comes to ensuring reliable connectivity in harsh environments, waterproof connectors are a must. Whether you’re working in outdoor applications, industrial settings, or marine environments, connectors that offer high protection against water and dust are critical. WEIPU’s IP68-rated connectors—specifically the SP and WK20 series—offer a robust solution designed to meet the demanding needs of industries ranging from automation to energy.

 

 

 

What is IP68 Protection?

 

IP68 is one of the highest protection ratings for connectors, indicating that the connector is fully protected against dust ingress (dust-tight) and can withstand continuous immersion in water beyond 1-meter depth. For industries like outdoor lighting, renewable energy, and industrial automation, connectors with IP68 protection are a must-have to ensure uninterrupted performance, even in extreme conditions.

 

 

 

Why Choose WEIPU’s IP68 connectors?

 

  • Reliable Protection in Harsh Environments: Both the SP and WK20 series are designed with the highest IP68 protection, making them perfect for applications exposed to dust, moisture, or water immersion. Whether you’re dealing with solar panel installations, outdoor lighting, or marine equipment, these connectors are built to ensure that your system operates reliably under challenging conditions.

 

 

  • Flexible Solutions for Diverse Applications: The SP series features a variety of connector sizes and options, offering a versatile solution for various industrial and commercial applications. The WK20 series, known for its push-lock mechanism, provides secure, easy connections, even in environments where a quick and secure coupling is essential. Both series support multiple termination types—solder, crimp, and screw—giving you the flexibility to choose the ideal connection method for your specific requirements.

 

 

  • Robust Design for Maximum Durability: WEIPU connectors are built to last. The durable materials used in the SP and WK20 series ensure they withstand physical wear, extreme temperatures, and harsh environments.
