IP67 Waterproof Performance Protection Specifications: When installing the product, the housing assembly must be carried out in strict accordance with the assembly diagram in the drawing to ensure that the red silicone rubber O-ring waterproof ring is intact, undamaged, undeformed and non-aging, and the sealing surface is tightly fitted without misalignment, excessive extrusion or falling off; when designing the housing, the standard plug insertion depth must be reserved, and the housing opening must be chamfered to avoid scratching the waterproof ring and exposed tongue during mating; after installation, a 1 meter water depth 30 minutes waterproof sealing test must be carried out to ensure that the protection performance meets the standard. It is forbidden to use the product when the waterproof structure is damaged and the sealing is not in place.
Exposed Tongue Structure Protection Specifications: This product is an exposed tongue design. During the whole process of transportation, turnover, mounting and use, the exposed tongue must be protected with emphasis. It is forbidden for the tongue to be impacted, bent, squeezed or scratched to prevent tongue deformation, internal contact displacement, gold plating layer scratching, and avoid affecting the electrical contact performance, mating stability and service life of the product; when the SMT nozzle picks up the material, it must avoid the tongue area to prevent the tongue from being damaged by the nozzle pressure.
On-board Mounting & Soldering Specifications: The PCB pad size, through-hole aperture and positioning hole position must be designed in strict accordance with the recommended PCB layout in the drawing. On-board installation does not require slotting to ensure that the product is vertically flush with the PCB surface after installation, without warping or offset; during SMT mounting, it is necessary to ensure the precise alignment of the 4-pin through-board with the PCB through-holes, and the mounting pins are fully fitted with the pads to avoid mounting offset, pin bending and pad cold solder; the peak temperature of reflow soldering must be strictly controlled within the range of 260℃±5℃, and the holding time of the peak temperature on the board shall not exceed the industry standard, to prevent oxidation of the zinc alloy plating, thermal deformation of the high temperature resistant plastic housing, and damage to the gold plating layer of the pin contacts, which will affect the product performance and waterproof effect.
PCB Layout & Equipment Adaptation Requirements: PCB pad size, through-hole aperture and positioning hole position must be designed in strict accordance with the product drawing, and sufficient on-board installation space and plug mating operation space must be reserved to avoid physical interference between the product and surrounding electronic components, equipment housing, and PCB board; it is recommended that the PCB layout tolerance be controlled within ±0.05mm to ensure the accuracy of on-board installation, welding firmness and production yield; the equipment housing opening must match the plug insertion size and the total length of 6.5mm, and the housing thickness design must match the product size to avoid interference damage to the interface and exposed tongue during mating.
Mating & Usage Specifications: The male and female connectors must be aligned horizontally during mating, apply force evenly along the axial direction, violent insertion, oblique insertion, shaking insertion and horizontal pulling are prohibited, to prevent deformation of the exposed tongue, bending of the interface pins, shell cracking, internal contact damage, and waterproof structure loosening, and avoid affecting the electrical performance, waterproof performance and service life of the product; it is forbidden to use non-standard, damaged, deformed male plugs with foreign objects for mating to prevent damage to the internal structure of the interface and scratching of the gold plating layer of the contacts.
Environment & Storage Requirements: The product must be stored in a dry, dust-free environment without corrosive gases and strong ultraviolet radiation, the storage temperature is controlled at 5℃~35℃, and the relative humidity is ≤75%. Avoid long-term exposure to high temperature, high humidity, acid and alkali corrosion, salt spray environment to prevent oxidation and corrosion of the zinc alloy shell, aging of the plastic housing, loss of toughness of the silicone waterproof ring, oxidation of the metal plating, and attenuation of sealing performance; the product should be used as soon as possible after opening, avoid long-term exposed storage affecting the waterproof sealing effect and electrical contact performance.
Adaptation & Selection Specifications: This product is an IP67 waterproof 16PIN on-board 4-pin through-board TYPE-C female connector, 6.5mm total length exposed tongue zinc alloy version, which can only be used with matching standard TYPE-C male plugs. The selection must be based on the equipment housing thickness, on-board installation space, waterproof grade, and operating temperature environment requirements. It is forbidden to assemble and use with non-standard, customized, size-mismatched male plugs/equipment to prevent problems such as insufficient interface installation, structural damage, waterproof failure, and poor electrical contact.
Transportation & Handling Specifications: During transportation and production turnover, the original packaging must be kept intact. Severe impact, extrusion and dropping of the tape reel are prohibited to prevent carrier tape deformation, product falling off, pin bending deformation, exposed tongue damage, shell bump damage, and waterproof sealing structure damage; after the tape is opened, avoid pulling and bending the carrier tape to prevent abnormal peeling force from affecting the feeding efficiency and accuracy of the automatic mounter.
