Heavy Duty Power Connector Housings and Hoods are combined with contact inserts to design complete heavy-duty power connectors ideal for a wide range of applications. These components are constructed from highly durable and reliable materials for efficient performance. They are available in various sizes, mounting options, and materials ideal for a variety of challenging environments.
What are Power Connector Housings?
The connector housing is a key component in designing a complete power connector. They are available in varied mounting types, including panel, base, and surface mounts. This heavy-duty connector housing features a cable gland, allowing cable entry on either side. In addition, they come in die-cast metals such as tough thermoplastic and aluminium.
What are Power Connector Hoods?
A power connector hood is a crucial accessory designed to be used with connector inserts. They are equipped with integral pipes to connect to corresponding housing levers for efficient compatibility and desired applications. They come in both low and high design types, with all their models of excellent quality and reliability. Furthermore, they allow the cable entry via a cable gland from the top or the side. Like connector housings, they are made of highly durable and tough thermoplastic or aluminum metal.
Locking Mechanisms in Heavy Duty Power Connector Housings & Hoods
These connectors are supplied with a locking mechanism that prevents them from opening during operation and tightens the connection. The most popular and familiar locking mechanism related to the industrial environment is the locking lever, which comes in either double or single form, depending on the application type.
Where are they Used?
These robust and durable heavy-duty connectors are robust electrical connectors used in various indoor and outdoor environments. The IP ratings of these connectors determine the proper applications like protection from dust, moisture, oils and greases, and foreign particles.
