Take a look at the features of industrial sockets
Due to the different environments faced by various industrial production activities, especially the environment faced by one type of industry such as petrochemical steelmaking, mining machinery and equipment is very different from the environment faced by a third type of industry such as hotels, so it puts forward high requirements for industrial sockets. Generally speaking, industrial sockets in various industries have the following characteristics:
1. High security: As the various aspects of industrial production are complementary, once a link has a problem, it is likely that it will also affect other links, resulting in particularly large losses. Therefore, industrial sockets need to have very high safety indicators, and often need to assist in the design of some protective measures.
2. Waterproof and electric shock protection: the design of these features is also a proof of high safety.
3. Excellent sealing and retention devices can better connect plugs and sockets together and do not easily fall off.
4. Long service life: industrial sockets have a long service life, also for better production safety.
5. Heat-resistant and flame-retardant: industrial production machines are often switched on 24 hours a day, so the heat-resistant and flame-retardant requirements for sockets are often higher.
6. High versatility: the industrial sector is very different. If the industrial socket is only designed for a particular industry, then both the cost of production and the cost of use is very high, so the socket of each industry can often be universal.
The difference between industrial sockets and civilian sockets
1, analysed from the material, industrial sockets are made of polycarbonate alloy, which is often different from ordinary plastic sockets for civilian use.
2, in terms of power, industrial electricity and civilian electricity is different, so the load power of industrial sockets will be much higher than civilian sockets. Generally speaking, the responsible power requirement of industrial socket is more than 4000W.
3, in the functional design of the socket, industrial socket is also higher than the civilian socket technology, with overload protection, current and voltage display and other functions.
4, in the service life, industrial socket is more than 4 times of the civilian socket.
Due to the difference between life electricity and industrial electricity, industrial socket should not be used in the family.
Industrial socket selection skills
1. Look at the appearance: high-quality industrial socket lettering is clear, uniform colour, no bumpy feeling. Due to the special use environment of industrial sockets, the technology is often higher. The surface of the socket will not appear cracks, bubbles, deformation and other defects. And it will look very textured, so you can intuitively feel the high hardness and flame retardancy of this socket.
2. Hand shaking: when shopping, the socket can be shaken by hand. High-quality sockets are tightly embedded inside, there will be no sound.
3. Weigh with your hand: good socket materials are high-quality materials, the copper inside is heavier. Weighing the socket, if it feels very light, then the use of this socket material is questionable.
4. Recognise the brand: a good brand, its products through the relevant national testing standards, in the choice of more to protect the safety of users.
