PowerPlus high-current elements by Würth Elektronik ICS are ideal connection elements for components and cables on printed circuit boards, or as mounting elements particularly if high torques are required or if installation space is limited.
The parts consist of a punched brass base body and a stainless steel screw element. The specially designed base body allows double-sided assembly of the power supply elements in the same position, making for compact system designs.
The stainless steel screw as a separate unit permits higher torque than monolithic high-current contacts. Torques of 1,8 Nm can be achieved with the smallest M4 thread, and up to 42 Nm with the largest M12 version. Depending on the layout, the contacts can carry currents of up to 400 A.
As press-fit components, PowerPlus power supply elements also protect the printed circuit board from thermal stress. At 100-200 μΩ, the press-fit zone itself has an extremely low contact resistance, so the limiting factor is usually due to the layout of the printed circuit board or the connection of external leads.
