Select M16 connectors with threaded locking + anti-loosening structures (e.g., double threads, pawl locks) to prevent accidental disconnection under vibration.
Tighten to rated torque (60 cNm) and apply anti-loosening glue or washers to eliminate thread slack caused by continuous vibration.
Fix cables firmly and use strain relief components to avoid stress transfer to the connector interface during shock/vibration.
Choose metal housing connectors to enhance mechanical strength and shock resistance compared to plastic housing alternatives.
Technical Note: For extreme vibration environments (e.g., automotive, aerospace), select M16 connectors compliant with IEC 60068-2-6 vibration test standards and conduct periodic torque rechecks (monthly).
