Robust plastic power connector designed for harsh environments Amphenol UPCIP012ALS1 delivers high current performance
Product Overview
The Amphenol Industrial UPC (Ultimate Power Connector) series is a robust plastic power connector designed for demanding applications in the hybrid electric vehicle and heavy equipment markets. Featuring patented RADSOK technology, these connectors offer significantly higher amperage capacity, reduced T-rise, lower voltage drop, and less resistance compared to conventional products. The twisted grid configuration of RADSOK contacts enables up to 50% more current through the same size pin, enhancing reliability, cycle durability, and reducing mating forces. Available in compact, lightweight plastic shells with small footprints, the UPC series is field installable and repairable, making it an ideal interconnect solution for harsh environments and high-power needs.
