TE Connectivity EV Series High Voltage Relays

TE Connectivity / Kilovac EV Series High Voltage Relays are designed for high-voltage DC applications in electric vehicles and other harsh environment. The relays are lightweight, small, hermetically sealed, and are not position sensitive, allowing for it to be mounted in any orientation. The Kilovac relays have a voltage range of up to 2kV DC and are designed and built in accordance with AIAG QS9000. These relays operate over a temperature range from -55°C to +85°C and find application in several industries, including military ground vehicles, test equipment, charging system, and commercial ground vehicles.
