FQ Series 7 Pin Waterproof Circular Connector 10A Bayonet Plug IP67

Product Overview

The FQ Series 7 Pin Waterproof Circular Connector is engineered for reliable electrical transmission in demanding industrial environments where moisture, vibration, and dust protection are essential. Designed in accordance with the DZ4Q/RE008-84 standard, this connector is an upgraded version of the traditional Q series, offering improved sealing performance and enhanced mechanical reliability.

Its compact aluminum alloy housing, combined with a secure bayonet locking mechanism, provides quick installation while maintaining a stable electrical connection. The connector adopts an advanced squirrel-cage elastic contact structure that delivers lower contact resistance and greater durability than conventional wire spring contacts, making it suitable for equipment requiring dependable long-term performance.

Key Features

• High-performance IP67 sealing to protect against water and dust ingress.

• Bayonet locking mechanism allows fast connection and secure engagement.

• Squirrel-cage elastic contacts provide stable conductivity and reduced contact resistance.

• Gold-plated copper contacts improve electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance.

• Lightweight anodized aluminum alloy shell offers mechanical strength and corrosion protection.

• Compact design saves installation space while maintaining reliable performance.

• Excellent resistance to vibration, mechanical shock, and harsh environmental conditions.

• Suitable for repeated connection and disconnection with a service life of up to 500 mating cycles.

Working Principle

The connector establishes electrical continuity by accurately engaging gold-plated male and female contacts through a precision bayonet locking system. Once locked, the sealing structure prevents moisture and dust from entering the contact chamber, while the elastic contact design maintains consistent electrical pressure under vibration and mechanical movement.
