Switches, Relays & Keypads
The new Phoenix Contact BPC series connectors are protected against polarity reversal making them ideally suited for use in energy storage systems. They provide users with a high degree of flexibility due to their 360° rotatability and various connection types.
Touch-proof contacts and colour-coded and mechanical coding ensure safety when connecting the battery poles. The water resistance of the connectors also helps to ensure a reliable installation. The consistent transmission of power also ensures high-level shock and vibration resistance, even under demanding conditions.
The connectors transmit high currents of up to 400 A and are rated for applications up to 1500 V. They meet all the relevant energy storage standards in accordance with UL 4128, UL 1973, and UL 9540.
