New power connector range from Molex
18 March 2015
Interconnection
Molex has unveiled the Super Sabre power connector system for high-current applications where flexible wire-to-wire and wire-to-board configurations are required. Delivering 34 A per blade and withstanding up to +125°C operating temperatures makes them equally well-suited to automotive and commercial vehicle applications as they are to the appliance, medical, datacoms and industrial control industries.
Optimised for #10 to #12 AWG wires, the system accommodates both wire-to-wire and wire-to-board configurations, and is compatible with lead-free wave soldering and reflow soldering processes. Silver-plated, high-conductivity alloy terminals are used to minimise fretting corrosion concerns.
The flat-blade terminal design with four independent points of electrical contact offers redundant, secondary current paths for long-term performance and reliability. In addition, terminal design provides a more reliable electrical connection than other terminal styles.
The terminals are fully isolated on both mating sides to ensure complete protection against damage or shorting. Positive latch and terminal position assurance (TPA) features prevent terminal backout. The optional UL1977 and UL60950 ‘finger test’ certified blade meets safety requirements for many consumer applications.
