Quick-Disconnect, High-Current, Harsh-Environment Power Connectors for Rugged Mil-Aero Applications
Protect Circuits with Series 970 PowerTrip® Connectors
Series 970
Series 970 connectors fill the need for a military-grade harsh environment power connector with improved mechanical, environmental and electrical performance. PowerTrip® delivers reduced size and weight compared to lower-density 5015 type power connectors. Featuring triple-start mating threads, crimp rear-release contacts, IP68 environmental sealing, and improved EMI protection, PowerTrip® is ideal for power distribution units, hybrid electric drives, motors, and other high current applications.
The George HW Bush is the first US Navy surface ship to use the Series 970 PowerTrip® connector.
Fast, easy mating with triple-start ACME thread: 360° turn for full mating
Reduced size and weight compared to conventional industrial and/or aerospace solutions
LouverBand sockets for improved current ratings; up to 2000 mating cycles
Ratcheting coupling nut for secure mating and high vibration resistance
Operating temperature -65° C to +200° C
IP68+ environmental sealing, 6 ft. for 48 hrs.
Powerline Filters
Powerline filters suited for filtering DC and AC mains services are typically designed to incorporate both common-mode and differential-mode filters (line-to-line). Common mode chokes capable of screening both incoming and outgoing noise and transients are ideally suited for incorporation in Series 970 PowerTrip® filter connectors. All multiple-line filters employ modern filter elements incorporating compensating inductors or coupled chokes. PowerTrip powerline filters are typically supplied as made-to-order (bespoke) solutions. Please contact the factory for application engineering assistance.
