High Current Louvertac Screw machined pin & socket contacts. Both versions feature the AMP Louvertac springs for superior current carrying, heat transfer and durability performance. See catalog 65141. The total current capacity of each contact in a connector is dependent upon the heat rise resulting from the combination of electrical loads on all the contacts in the connector arrangement and the maximum ambient temperature in which the connector will be operating. Caution must be taken to assure that these combinations of conditions do not cause the inter- nal temperature of the connector to exceed the maximum operating temperature of the housing material. There are several variables which must be considered when determining this maximum current carrying capability for your application. These variables are: a. Wire SizeLarger wire will carry more current since it has less resistance to current flow therefore, it generates less heat. The wire also conducts heat away from the connector. b. Connector SizeIn general, the more circuits in a connector, the less current per contact can be carried. c. Ambient TemperatureThe higher the ambient temperature, the less current can be carried. 3 3 Catalog 82045 Dimensions are in millimeters Dimensions are shown for USA: 1-800-522-6752 South America: 55-11-3611-1514 Revised 11-03 and inches unless otherwise reference purposes only.
