EMC (Electro-Magnetic Compatibility) means a device (e.g.
a connector) can tolerate interferences and continue to work
properly.
It's generally measured via the shielding effectiveness.
This value is a ratio between the power radiated inside to the
maximum power interferences outside.

Control of corrosion impact on electronic devices is an
important expertise. Metal connectors suitable for outdoor
and indoor use should be able to withstand climate ingress,
exposure to salt spray and corrosive gases while still
maintaining mechanical and electrical functionality.
Over the years, many different test methods have been
developed but never really captured the exact equivalence
between testing scenarios and real electronic device
exposure to corrosive environments. SOURIAU has been
developing, manufacturing and testing connector solutions
for more than 90 years and has developed a unique corrosion
test based on Salt Spray exposure combined with four
additional corrosive gases. Typical industrial applications
may involve exposure to corrosive atmospheres equivalent
to 48 or 96 hours. SOURIAU’s UTO product series has been
validated to withstand corrosive agent exposure at these
timeframes. In addition, we can offer different solutions
and plating options to withstand longer corrosion exposure
times and test up to 500 hours.
