Anderson Power Products Introduces SPEC PAK Extreme

January 18, 2011 by Jeff Shepard

Anderson Power Products (APP®) introduced the SPEC Pak™ Extreme connector, APP’s latest addition to the SPEC Pak connector series. The SPEC Pak Extreme connectors increase the power handling capability of the SPEC Pak series to 320A.

This is achieved by using one of the four individual insert holders that offer customization though the use of our core Powerpole® Connector technology. As a result of its innovative design, the SPEC Pak Extreme is capable of holding up to two PP180 connectors, four PP120 connectors, four PP120 connectors combined with two PP75 connectors or nine PP75 connectors. A PP15/45 housing adapter can be substituted for one of the PP120 connectors to provide additional power, signal and/or ground options for greater design flexibility.

Contacts accommodate wire sizes ranging from 24 to 3/0 AWG (0.25 to 85.0 mm²) and can be inserted in a wide range of color housings providing color-coding options and design flexibility. The combination of housings, power, ground and signal contacts, housed in an IP68 rated, UL94 V-0 rated shell, offer thousands of design options for the most demanding applications.
