Rugged connector range resists vibration and hydrocarbons

Providing a reliable connection in environments subject to severe shock and vibration, the new TBC plug connectors from Multi-Contact are suitable for both mobile and stationary applications.

Rugged connector range resists vibration and hydrocarbons

Low-contact resistance and a long lifetime are ensured by the use of the company's Multilam technology. Their rugged, high-performance insulation is resistant to fuels and other hydrocarbons and can withstand temperatures across a wide range from -40degC to +125degC.

Available with 6mm and 8mm contact diameters and in two and three-pole versions, the TBC range is rated for voltages up to 1000V and continuous currents as high as 180A. Simple to connect and disconnect, their flat space-saving design incorporates a locking catch and prevents pole reversal due to incorrect coupling. Environmental protection is IP2X unmated and IP54 mated when using heat shrink sleeving.

The connectors are suitable for use with electric motors and batteries in industrial applications such as lifts, winches, cranes and battery chargers, as well as in electric vehicles such as municipal vehicles, forklift trucks and golf carts.
