清洁保养水槽洗碗机

is-it-safe-to-clean-computer-cables-in-a-dishwasher-00-final

Having spare computer cables on hand is always a good idea, but what do you do when you have suddenly inherited a very large collection of cables that need cleaning? Can you safely clean them using a dishwasher? Today’s SuperUser Q&A post has the answers to a curious, cable-rich reader’s questions.

备有备用计算机电缆始终是一个好主意，但是当您突然继承了大量需要清洁的电缆时，该怎么办？您可以使用洗碗机安全地清洁它们吗？今天的“超级用户问答”帖子解答了好奇的，电缆丰富的读者的问题。

问题 (The Question)

SuperUser reader user58446 wants to know if it is safe to clean computer cables in a dishwasher:

SuperUser阅读器user58446想知道清洁洗碗机中的计算机电缆是否安全：

A large quantity of assorted computer cables has recently come into my possession. The collection includes almost every type of computer-related cable you could want (video, USB, Ethernet, printer, audio and speaker, SATA, power, etc.). I am focusing on just the passive cables here, nothing with active electronics or things like power bricks. They became dirty while in storage and need to be cleaned.

我最近拥有大量各种各样的计算机电缆。该系列包括您可能需要的几乎每种类型的计算机相关电缆(视频，USB，以太网，打印机，音频和扬声器，SATA，电源等)。我只关注无源电缆，没有有源电子设备或电源砖之类的东西。它们在存放时变脏，需要清洁。

Most of us have probably heard about washing a keyboard in a dishwasher and I find myself wondering if the same method can be applied to dirty cables. My assumption is that because the older PS2 keyboards used in those dishwashing experiments have their own cables attached, what would be the difference between those cables and the ones I have?

我们大多数人可能都听说过用洗碗机清洗键盘，我发现自己想知道是否可以将相同的方法应用于脏电缆。我的假设是，由于那些洗碗实验中使用的较旧的PS2键盘连接了自己的电缆，这些电缆和我的电缆之间有什么区别？

Some of the possible concerns I can envision with using a dishwasher to clean these cables are:

我可以设想使用洗碗机清洗这些电缆的一些可能的问题是：

The construction of these cables could be different from a keyboard cable and the materials/fastenings might not hold up to dishwasher cleaning.
这些电缆的结构可能与键盘电缆不同，并且材料/紧固件可能无法承受洗碗机的清洁。
The water temperature in a dishwasher might be too hot for the materials used in some kinds of cables.
对于某些电缆中使用的材料，洗碗机中的水温可能太高。
Immersing some kinds of cables in water might be bad for them, so some might be cleanable in a dishwasher and some not.
将某些类型的电缆浸入水中可能对他们不利，因此某些电缆可以在洗碗机中清洗，而另一些则不能。

My assumption is that if all kinds of cables cannot be safely cleaned in this way, cables fall into just a few broad categories that drive what would be dishwasher-safe.

我的假设是，如果不能以这种方式安全地清洁所有类型的电缆，则电缆仅属于少数几类，它们将驱动洗碗机的安全运行。

Questions

问题

Washability: What characteristics (i.e. type of construction or type of use) would differentiate computer-related cables that should not be cleaned in a dishwasher from those that can be, and why?
可洗性：哪些特性(即结构类型或用途类型)将与计算机相关的电缆(不应该在洗碗机中清洗)与可清洁的电缆区分开，为什么？
Scope Of Risk: If a computer cable is put in a dishwasher and is adversely affected in a way that is not externally visible (so it would be used rather than discarded), would it only be the cable itself that was affected or are there any kinds of computer cables where the kinds of adverse effects from dishwasher cleaning could damage the equipment it is plugged into?
风险范围 ：如果将计算机电缆放在洗碗机中，并且受到外部看不见的不利影响(因此，它将被使用而不是丢弃)，那么仅仅是电缆本身受到了影响还是有哪种类型的计算机电缆在清洗洗碗机时产生的各种不利影响会损坏所插入的设备？

Dishwasher Use

洗碗机使用

Personally, I would not use a dishwasher at all for cables or other electrical/electronic components. The detergent requires very hot water to thoroughly dissolve and rinse, and can leave residue. It also tends to be a little corrosive. The plastic will not melt at dishwasher temperatures (unless a cable falls near the drying element), but it can leach out some of the plasticizer and make the plastic more brittle.

就个人而言，我根本不会将洗碗机用于电缆或其他电气/电子组件。洗涤剂需要非常热水才能完全溶解和冲洗，并可能留下残留物。它也倾向于具有腐蚀性。塑料在洗碗机温度下不会融化(除非电缆掉在干燥元件附近)，但它会滤出一些增塑剂并使塑料更脆。

If you are going to use a dishwasher, I would limit it to molded cables like power cables or speaker cables where there are just a few wires, the wires are heavy, you are dealing with low frequencies, and/or the molded connectors hermetically seal the ends.

如果要使用洗碗机，我会将其限制为模压电缆，例如电源线或扬声器电缆，这些电缆中只有几根电线，电线较重，正在处理低频信号和/或模压连接器是密封的结束。

Insidious Water

阴险水

Where you have openings into the connector or cable, water and detergent is likely to wick in and will be difficult to remove. Capillary action can pull liquid into nooks and crannies, and into the cable, where evaporation can take ages. Using heat to dry it out may even make it worse because the cable can act like a heat pipe; the evaporated water spreads as a vapor to other areas, so you can end up spreading it more than getting rid of it.

在连接器或电缆上有开口的地方，水和清洁剂可能会芯吸，并且难以清除。毛细作用可能会将液体吸入到角落和缝隙中，并进入电缆中，在电缆上蒸发可能会老化。用热将其弄干甚至会变得更糟，因为电缆的作用就像热管。蒸发的水会以蒸气的形式扩散到其他区域，因此您最终可以将其扩散到除掉之外。

In any kind of cable, residual water can, over time, cause the conductors to become brittle and more prone to breakage (through oxidation and chemical/electro-chemical reactions mentioned in the answers by txtechhelp, Nick T, and Tonny). The thinner the wires in the cable are, the less metal they have and the more susceptible they are.

在任何类型的电缆中，残留的水都会随着时间的流逝而导致导体变脆并更容易断裂(通过txtechhelp ， Nick T和Tonny的答案中提到的氧化和化学/电化学React)。电缆中的电线越细，金属越少，越容易受到影响。

Different Types of Cables

不同类型的电缆

If water gets into low frequency cables, it can shorten the service life of the cable, but it probably will not significantly change the cable’s performance. Cables used for high-speed data communication are a different matter; the water itself can be an immediate problem because these cables are not just wires and connectors. Their performance relies on electrical characteristics of the cable design. Water can affect those characteristics and degrade performance.

如果水进入低频电缆，会缩短电缆的使用寿命，但可能不会显着改变电缆的性能。用于高速数据通信的电缆是另一回事。水本身可能是一个迫在眉睫的问题，因为这些电缆不仅是电线和连接器。它们的性能取决于电缆设计的电气特性。水会影响这些特性并降低性能。

Cleaning Recommendation

清洁建议

What you are trying to get rid of is external. The cables should still be internally good. If you get water inside, you may create issues you do not currently have. A better solution is to just hand clean the cables externally by wiping them with a rag and some isopropyl alcohol.

您想要摆脱的是外部的。电缆内部仍然应该良好。如果内部积水，可能会造成当前没有的问题。更好的解决方案是用碎布和一些异丙醇擦拭外部，以手工清洁电缆。

Risks

风险性

The risks relate primarily to the performance or service life of the cable. The only risk of damage I can envision to something other than the cable would be getting water inside the plug of a power cord. You could potentially get leakage currents that could corrode the wires or cause other problems beyond the cable itself.

风险主要与电缆的性能或使用寿命有关。除了电缆以外，我能想到的唯一损坏风险是在电源线的插头内进水。您可能会得到泄漏电流，这些电流可能腐蚀电线或引起电缆本身以外的其他问题。
