Amphenol ELP4A04 plastic power connector designed for performance and easy installation in EV systems
Product Overview
The Amphenol Industrial ePower-Lite is a plastic power connector series specifically designed for the demanding requirements of the hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) and electric vehicle (EV) markets. This series offers 2, 3, and 4-pole configurations, providing versatile solutions for various power distribution needs. Engineered with robust plastic shells capable of withstanding temperatures up to 125C, the ePower-Lite ensures dielectric protection and durability. Its design incorporates patented RADSOK technology, which delivers higher amperage capacity, reduced temperature rise (T-rise), lower voltage drop, and diminished resistance for optimal performance. The compact and lightweight plastic shell structure, coupled with a small footprint, makes it ideal for space-constrained EV applications. Furthermore, the ePower-Lite is field installable and repairable, and includes Connector Position Assurance (CPA) to confirm proper mating. These combined attributes establish ePower-Lite as a preferred interconnect solution for the EV and hybrid markets.
