Industrial Electrical Connector Amphenol CCBK160 with Patented Vortex Clip and UL 1977 Certification
Product Overview
Amphenol Industrial Operations, in partnership with Eaxtron, presents the UL 1977 Effortless & Arcless DIN Connectors. These connectors feature the patented Vortex Clip technology, significantly enhancing conductivity and reducing connection/disconnection effort by up to 80%. Constructed from pure copper (Cu11000) plated with 6m of silver, they offer superior durability and minimal wear. The robust polyamide housing and flexible handles ensure reliable performance in demanding environments, with an expected lifespan of up to twelve thousand cycles. Designed for arcless operation, these connectors safely manage and disperse arcs within the connector carriage, minimizing risks to personnel and equipment. A color-coded system aids in preventing incompatible connections by classifying different voltages and applications. The innovative contact loader streamlines the attachment of wired pilots, auxiliaries, and main contacts, requiring no additional pieces for secure installation.
