Amphenol CVR23P Connector Offering 200A to 400A Continuous Current Ratings for Utility Truck Systems
Product Overview
The Amphenol ePower Connector Series is engineered for the rigorous demands of hybrid, electric vehicle, and utility truck electrical systems. Operating at 800VDC to 1000VDC with continuous current ratings from 200A to 400A, these connectors leverage the patented RADSOK technology for enhanced performance. This technology offers higher amperage, reduced T-rise, lower resistance, and lower mating force compared to conventional solutions. The ePower series provides a 40% smaller footprint than three EMI shielding cable glands and simplifies termination with shielded cable. Available in 2 or 3 power contact configurations, a single ePower 400A connector can replace multiple conventional connectors, optimizing space and cost. Key applications span Military Aerospace and Industrial segments, including power converters, hybrid electric vehicles, heavy equipment electrification, two and three-phase motors, and starter generators.
