Can rotating electrical connectors be used in damp or corrosive environments?
It depends on how damp or corrosive the environment is. While rotating electrical connectors are constructed of corrosion resistant materials they might not be suitable for all applications depending upon which corrosives they are exposed to. They also are not suitable to be used in wet environments without protection. Rotating electrical connectors are available with a stainless steel ball bearing for use in damp or corrosive environments. We also recommend the use of the accessory Boot Kit for additional protection with the Modular series models. This increases the IP protection rating of the rotating electrical connector to IP53.
