OMG! The Best Heavy-Duty Power Connector and Housings Ever!

Heavy-duty power connector hoods and housings are utilized in conjunction with contact inserts to form a complete heavy-duty power connector. Enrgtech offers a wide variety of Heavy-Duty Power Connector and Housings in various sizes, materials, and mounting options from some of the leading brands in the industry. You can choose among them according to the parameters most suitable for your applications.

Power Connector Hoods

Heavy-duty power connector hoods come in both low and high construction types. The cable entry to the connector hood is achieved through a cable gland which is present either at the top or the side. The strong hoods are manufactured from metals, including tough thermoplastic and die-cast aluminium.

Power Connector Housings

Heavy-duty power connector housings usually come in panel/bulkhead, surface, and mounting base types. The cable entry to the connector housing usually comes through a cable gland on one or both sides of a surface-mount housing, through the rear of a panel, or sometimes through bulkhead-type housing. The Strong housings are also made from die-cast aluminium and tough thermoplastic metals.

Locking Mechanisms

The locking mechanism of a heavy-duty power connector is designed to prevent the opening of the lock during operation by increasing the tightness of the connection. The most common locking mechanism on industrial electrical connectors is the locking levers. Levers are available as single and double levers and can be present on either side of the hood or the housing, depending on the application. The levers are connected with the pins on the opposite half of the assembly and locked securely into one place. You can also secure some industrial connectors with the help of screws or bayonet locking systems which is an effective method.

Applications

Heavy-duty connectors are solid electrical connectors that are used in a variety of industrial applications and environments. They are appropriate for both indoor and outdoor uses. Many connectors feature IP ratings when correctly mated to protect them from dust, moisture, oils, foreign particles, and grease. Some of the standard IP ratings include IP65 and IP66. IP67, IP68, and IP69K.

Some of the applications for which heavy-duty connector hoods and housings are used include:

• Transportation
• Robotics
• Industrial Automation
• Manufacturing
• Utilities
• High voltage electrics

They can be used for a variety of other applications. Considering such a wide range of applications, they are highly effective and can efficiently get the jobs done.
