Robust Anderson Power 6344-BK connector with multiple auxiliary contacts and touch safe housing design
Product Overview
The SBE80 and SBO60 connectors build upon the capabilities of two-pole SB connectors, offering up to 80 Amps of primary power per pole and an IEC 60950 touch-safe housing. These connectors are designed to accommodate up to 8 auxiliary power/signal contacts, enabling intelligent power switching, CAN bus communication, and interlock loop circuitry. They are suitable for applications requiring high current handling and reliable auxiliary connections, with silver-plated contacts for enhanced electrical performance and durability up to 10,000 mating cycles.
