Anderson Power Products, represented in Australia and New Zealand by Soanar , have introduced the new SPEC Pak connector.
The SPEC Pak connector (Sealed Power for Environmental Connections) has an environmentally sealed IP67 shell to protect existing APP contacts and housings. Anderson Power Products’ customer-configured SPEC Pak connector can be used where a rugged or water proof high power, signal and ground interconnect solution is required such as in:
- Mass transportation
- Off-road vehicles
- Factory automation
- Oil and petro-chemical exploration
- Agricultural equipment
Powerpole technology is the core technology within and is protected by the SPEC Pak connector. The Powerpole technology gives users a range of options, which may be specified to empower designers of power, signal and ground connections flexibility. When Powerpole technology is combined within the SPEC Pak connector, the result is a powerful environmental interconnect for use in an array of demanding applications.
The core APP Powerpole technology within the SPEC Pak connector is cost-effective. The SPEC Pak connector has a broad selection of colour coded housings with power housings (standard and finger proof) that handle up to 45A as well as signal and ground housings for design flexibility.
These housings combined with contacts for wire gauges #24 to #10 AWG (0.25 to 4mm²) provide users several design solutions in a single interconnect. The SPEC Pak connector utilises an industry standard panel mount cut out of 26482/5015 shell size 24 and the touch safe housings meet the UL1977, section 10.2.
Anderson Power Products’ SPEC Pak connector offers the following advantages:
- Economical installation costs
- Size to power performance ratio
- Easy assembly
- Options for customer configurability
