High cycle Anderson Power SBE80YEL16MMHDL power connector with integrated auxiliary contact system
Product Overview
The SBE80 and SBO60 connectors offer robust power and signal connectivity, building upon the established SB connector capabilities. These connectors feature up to 8 auxiliary power/signal contacts and an IEC 60950 touch-safe housing, ensuring safety and versatility. They are designed for high-cycle applications, supporting up to 10,000 mating cycles with silver-plated contacts. The integrated auxiliary contact system enables intelligent power switching, CAN communication, and interlock circuitry, with individual poles rated up to 20 amps. The primary power contacts are silver-plated and can handle UL-rated currents up to 80 amps per pole, accommodating wire sizes up to #4 AWG (25 mm).
