Quick connectors typically have a flame-retardant rating to ensure that in the event of a fire, the connector does not exacerbate the flames or pose significant safety risks. The following are common flame retardant levels for quick connectors:
UL94 V-0: This is the highest flame retardant rating. When the quick connector undergoes flame ignition testing, its self extinguishing time is less than 10 seconds, and the trace amount of combustion can disappear within 12 seconds. This level of quick connector is the safest and more suitable for high-end electronic products and firefighting equipment.
UL94 V-1: The self extinguishing time of this quick connector is within 15 seconds, and the trace amount of combustion can disappear within 30 seconds. These connectors are suitable for demanding electronic devices and electrical systems.
UL94 V-2: The self extinguishing time of this quick connector is usually within 30 seconds, and the trace amount of combustion can disappear within 60 seconds. Connectors with this level are more common and suitable for more common electronic devices.
UL94 HB: This quick connector is not considered a flame-retardant product, but it has a certain degree of flame resistance and is usually used in electronic products to connect ordinary household electrical devices.
The above-mentioned flame-retardant grade quick connectors have different application ranges. You can choose the appropriate flame-retardant grade quick connector according to your actual usage needs, thereby improving the safety and reliability of electrical connections.
