The power adapter is a common electrical auxiliary product in our lives, so do you know what to do if the power adapter gets hot? How to maintain it? Let’s follow the editor to learn about it!

　　How to deal with the heat of the power adapter?

　　The heat of the power adapter is unavoidable, but we can speed up its heat dissipation to prevent its temperature from rising continuously.

　　1. Select switching components with low voltage drop and low loss, and the heat dissipation area should be as large as possible. Switching power supplies above 100W should generally have metal perforated shells or add cooling fans.

　　2. Try to put the power adapter in a place with good ventilation and heat dissipation, and never put books or other things on the power supply.

　　3. When using the notebook in a high temperature environment, the notebook power adapter should be placed in a place that is not exposed to direct sunlight and is ventilated; do not put the power adapter near the cooling air outlet of the notebook, otherwise not only the heat of the power adapter will not be dissipated Go out, but also absorb some of the heat.

　　How to maintain the power adapter?

　　power adapter is also called "conventional power supply", which is a very common type in monitoring power supply. Take the power adapter as an example to explain how to maintain the outdoor power supply in daily life.

　　1. Try to prevent the sun and rain from getting wet. You can choose a suitable waterproof power box for installation. The waterproof power box is reliably fixed with bulging screws. The power adapter is installed in the box. The box can also be equipped with a power socket. If there are power connectors, network cable connectors, video cable connectors, etc. Hidden in a box.

　　2. Don't use the power cord to hang the adapter in the air to prevent the connector from short-circuiting and causing a safety accident, or the connector erodes and falls over time and hits people.

　　3. The network cable connector, video connector, DC power connector, etc. should be connected reliably, and it is best to fix it with a cable tie to eliminate the stress of the connector.

　　4. For adapters with screw holes, they can be fixed in the waterproof power box with screws. For adapters without screw holes, they can be stuck in the waterproof power box with foam tape.

　　The treatment methods and maintenance work for the power adapter heating are introduced here. I believe you already know how to deal with these two situations. I hope I can help you!
