EMI Wind-Lok Connector with RADSOK Technology Suited for High Amperage Applications
Amphenol Industrial Operations has introduced EMI Wind-Lok which is a reverse bayonet connector that is designed to deliver high power from source to load. It is a single pole, high-power connector that features a 1/3 turn reverse bayonet coupling design with secondary coupling that allows for audible, tactile and visual confirmation of secure mating. This connector with EMI shielding can be used in a variety of different markets, including wind turbines, offshore windfarms, electrical generators, charging systems, as well as offshore petroleum production. It has an operating temperature of -40˚C to +125˚C and can withstand up to 2,000 mating cycles. Its 18 mm RADSOK socket contact provides an amperage rating up to 800 A at 2,500 VDC.
EMI Wind-Lok features rugged corrosion resistant plating with a hard coat anodized finish that can withstand 300 days of continuous salt spray. The connector is vibration resistant and offers crimp or two-hole busbar termination and features silver plated contacts. It is RoHS and REACH compliant, providing more protection for insert and contact assembly. Moreover, Its double-dead front, finger-proof inserts help to protect the pin as well as the socket and it can fit a wide range of wire sizes.
