FAQs
What does IP68 mean?
IP68 is an Ingress Protection rating indicating that the connector is dust-tight and protected against continuous immersion in water under pressure, making it suitable for permanent outdoor installations.
Is the gel inside toxic?
No, the gel is non-toxic and safe for handling and environmental contact.
Can I reuse this connector after opening it?
Yes, the connector is designed to be re-enterable. After opening for maintenance, it can be re-sealed to maintain its waterproof properties, provided the gel seal is intact.
What is the maximum voltage this connector can handle?
This connector is typically used for low-voltage applications. Consult the product's detailed specifications or WISKA for exact voltage limitations if not explicitly stated.
How do I know if my cable fits the 6-8mm range?
Measure the diameter of the cable's outer sheath. If it falls between 6mm and 8mm, it is compatible with this connector.
What is the origin country of this product?
The country of origin for this WISKA connector is Italy.
Troubleshooting
Connection is intermittent or not working.
Verify that the cable diameters are within the 6-8mm range. Ensure the stripped wire ends are properly inserted and secured in the spring terminal block. Check that power is correctly supplied to the circuit.
Water ingress detected.
The connector may not have been properly sealed or the cables are outside the specified diameter. Inspect the connector for damage. Replace if compromised and ensure proper installation for IP68 rating.
Difficulty inserting wires into the terminal block.
Ensure the wires are stripped cleanly and not frayed. If the cable is too thick for the 8mm limit, it will not fit. Gently twist the wire strands to keep them together before insertion.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Ready for immediate use with pre-filled gel.
- Excellent waterproof and dustproof protection (IP68).
- Allows for re-entry for future access or maintenance.
- Secure connection thanks to the integrated spring terminal block.
- Suitable for outdoor and external electrical installations.
Cons
- Limited to specific cable diameters (6-8mm).
- Not suitable for high-voltage applications.
- Requires manual insertion of wires into the terminal block.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the power supply is disconnected before starting.
- Strip the ends of the two cables to be joined, ensuring the exposed wire diameter falls within the 6-8mm range.
- Insert the stripped wire ends into the spring terminal block within the connector. Ensure a firm connection.
- Close the connector. The pre-filled gel will automatically seal around the wires and the terminal block.
Compatibility:
- Suitable for low-voltage DC and AC applications.
- Designed for cable diameters between 6mm and 8mm.
- Ideal for outdoor and external installations requiring IP68 protection.
Care:
- This connector is maintenance-free due to its sealed, pre-filled design.
- If re-entry is required, carefully open the connector and re-seal it after modifications. Ensure the gel remains intact for continued waterproofing.
- Avoid exposing the connector to temperatures or chemicals outside its rated specifications.
