Single pole high current connector - Powersafe
Special contact design
Due to recent developments in the technology of spring blade pins, the electrical characteristics of the connector are undergoing significant improvement:
- Low contact resistance
- Minimal voltage drop
- High short-circuit currents are possible
- Compact design
- Self-cleaning pins
- Lower insertion force when creating the connection
- High power transfer frequency
- High number of mating cycles
- Double-screw terminals for connection to 150 mm² (max. continuous power of 500A.)
- Crimp-clamping for cables up to 300 mm² (max. continuous power 800A)
- In compliance with EN 60529, Powersafe fulfils the requirements for protection class IP67 when plugged in.
