Stäubli Electrical Connectors is launching the 16BL single pole, high current connector, which has been specially designed with optimised safety functions and increased flexibility for (emergency) power supplies and industrial applications. The 16BL features numerous innovations and allows safe, intuitive use and reliable power transmission under extreme environmental conditions, even in a temperature range from -40°C to +120°C.
Building on the popular 16BV series, the new range is rated at up to 630 A and is available in a simplified combination of one socket and three plug types. Rated at up to 1000 V and 5000 mating cycles, it has increased ingress protection to IP65, IP68 and IP69, as well as salt-spray resistance.
