After crimping, slide the wire seal up to the terminal’s insulation barrel. When the terminal is inserted into the housing, the wire seal seats in the housing entry hole, creating the waterproof seal. If the wire seal is installed after crimping, it cannot pass over the terminal and the connector will not seal properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ: What IP rating does this connector achieve?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith correctly installed wire seals and a fully engaged connector body seal, the 7222-2418-30 \/ QLW-A connector achieves \u003cstrong\u003eIP67\u003c\/strong\u003e (dust-tight, protected against temporary immersion in water up to 1m for 30 minutes).
