Listed
below are frequently asked question regarding Gel
application and use.
How
often does this Gel have to be re-applied?
Answer:
The number of times plugs are inserted will determine
the number of times gel must be applied. If the gel
is applied and the male plug is inserted, you will
never have to reapply the gel again until 2 years
or more of service. This is under normal useage conditions
in a protected environment. If multiple insertions
occur you will have to reapply the gel with each insertion.
This is our recommendation however this gel is design
to not run, drip or evaporate, so this is not absolutely
required to reapply gel and the determination must
be made by the user.
How many insertions of the male jack can there
be before the Gel
needs to be re-applied?
Answered
above. Xmultiple recommends Gel is reapplied with
every insertion.
What is the recommended best practices for
applying the Gel?
Answer:
The 3oz tube was designed to make the application
of the gel easy for the user. The gel is applied directly
from the tube into the female connector. A small drop
inserted on the contact pins inside the female is
all that is required. The male plug is then inserted
into the connector.
Could we potentially apply this to our jacks
in the manufacturing process?
Answer:
Yes, Users can have the Gel applied during the assembly
process of their products.
The
answer is also "Yes" if Xmultiple applies
the Gel during our process of manufacturing a connector
for a customer. However, if Xmultiple applies the
Gel during our manufacturing of a connector the cost
of the Gel inserted into the jacks during the manufacturing
increases the pricing by 100% and has a MOQ of 25K
units.
