Amphenol ePower Connectors www.amphenol-industrial.comwww.amphenol-industrial.com Amphenol Company Overview Manufacturing connectors for over eight decades, we take pride RADSOK Technology Advantages that Amphenol Industrial Operations (AIO) is the undisputed leader in interconnect systems for harsh environment RADSOKS twisted grid configuration allows for 50% more current to pass through the same size pin, while providing increased reliability, ampacity and cycle applications. Such applications require a high degree of durability as well as lower insertion force, T-rise and voltage drop. engineering sophistication and precision manufacturing capability. Innovations like our RADSOK contact technology HIGH RELIABILITY can provide up to 50% more current through the same size pin. Connectors utilizing this RADSOK technology will Unique RADSOK design and construction technology create an electrical contact outperform similar products in the market hands down. interface that exceeds typical interconnect requirements. Applications in aerospace, medical, industrial, automotive, mining, offshore, and other harsh environments depend on the high reliability of Amphenols RADSOK technology. Amphenol Industrial, a division of the Amphenol Corporation, is a leading global manufacturer of cylindrical connectors. LOW CONTACT ENGAGEMENT/SEPARATION FORCES Amphenol Industrials product lines consist of rectangular, standard miniature, fiber optic, EMI/EMP filter, and a variety of The hyperbolic lamella socket contact construction distributes normal forces special application connectors. over a high percentage of the mating pin surface. This creates a smooth, even engagement effort. This force distribution also contributes to excellent performance in vibration applications with resistance to typical fretting corrosion. Our manufacturing capabilities include state-of-the-art CNC machining, die-casting, molding, impact and extruding, plating, LOW CONTACT RESISTANCE screw machining and process controls. The large interface area between the socket lamella and pin surface result in AIO also has a fully equipped material evaluation lab and an very low contact resistance, enabling the RADSOK contacts high current ratings compared to traditional power contact designs. engineering support organization utilizing the latest in computer aided design software and analysis tools. HIGH MATING CYCLE DURABILITY Our global manufacturing facilities include locations in Sidney, RADSOK contacts with typical silver plating finishes have demonstrated survival NY, Fraser, MI, Midland, TX, Shenzhen and Zhuhai, China, of 20,000 mating cycles. Specialized plating and contact lubricants can extend Winnipeg, Canada, and Nogales, Mexico. cycle life to 200,000 matings or higher. Even with continuous exposure to harsh environmental abuse (salt, sand, and high humidity), RADSOK contacts have been tested to maintain low contact resistance beyond 10,000 mating cycles. The ePower Connector Series RADSOK Derating Chart Temperature vs. Current Based on single conductors in free air. Wire cross-section same size as pin This series of connectors is designed for the demanding contact cross-sectional area. requirements of hybrid, electric vehicles, and utility truck electrical systems, operating at 800VDC to 1000VDC with a 200A to 400A continuous current rating. The product incorporates the patented RADSOK technology for higher amperage, lower T-rise, less resistance and mating force. Meantime, it offers a 40% smaller footprint than three EMI shielding cable glands and easier operation of termination with shielded cable by a washer compressing the shield to the inside surface of the shell. The connector series covers 2 or 3 power contacts. As an example, one ePower 400A connector can replace three conventional connectors, saving space and cost. The markets and application for the ePower Series include but are not limited to the following found in both the Military Aerospace and Industrial segments: Power converters Hybrid electric vehicles Heavy equipment electrification Two and three phase motors Starter generators
