Amphenol Industrial ePower-Lite Automotive Connectors
Amphenol Industrial ePower-Lite Automotive Connectors are compact, lightweight plastic shell connectors that are field-installable and repairable. These connectors are available in 2, 3, and 4-pole configurations and use innovative RADSOK technology, which allows for 50% more current through the same pin. This improves the reliability, and durability and reduces the required force of connection. The connectors are designed with a compact, lightweight plastic shell and are field-installable and repairable. The connectors operate with currents from 70A to 120A and are designed for hybrid electric vehicles and heavy equipment industries.

There is nothing more amazing than finding the one person that you connect with who makes you laugh, love, and learn. Well, when it comes to EVs, the range of power-lite connectors from Amphenol will let your application know what true love really is. These connectors are constructed from a plastic shell making them lightweight, their compact design helps them take up little space and the use of a low mating force helps to reduce chance of damage during installation and maintenance. With a maximum DC operating voltage of 1000V, and a maximum continuous current of 120A, the power-lite connectors are an excellent choice for EV applications. Additionally, these connectors come in 2, 3, and 4 pole options for working with numerous busses, and their IP67 waterproof rating, IEC 60529 touch proof rating, and operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C makes them ideal for harsh environments. Finally, their RoHS compliant construction makes them applicable in most markets including the EU.
