High power connections

By Plant Engineering Staff December 5, 2006

Rhino-Hide 49 Series single-pole connection products for high-amperage power applications are designed to withstand punishing environmental conditions and severe temperature extremes. The connection products consist of male and female plugs, connectors, receptacles, insulators and contacts and accessory products such as clevis pins, receptacle castings dust cover caps, gaskets and covers. These connection products are designed to deliver up to 1,000 V — either ac or dc — and up to 1,135 A through cables ranging in size from 313 MCM through 777 MCM.

This line of products are compatible with single-pole products from other leading manufacturers. Plugs, connectors and receptacles are color-coded for fast visual identification of circuits and phase connections. Cables attach to the contacts using standard crimp tools.
