Mini 600VDC 52A Power Connector

March 31, 2016 by Jeff Shepard

Anderson Power Products has introduced the SBS™ Mini, the company's smallest ever dc power connector in the SB® product group. Since 1953, the SB® has set a proven record of performance using the innovative flat-wiping contact technology. New features were added over time with the launches of the SBS™, SBE®, & SBX® connectors.

SBS™ Mini securely holds two crimp and poke contacts with sacrificial tips to enable hot swap capabilities on DC circuits. The low resistance contacts accept 20 to 10 AWG (0.75 to 4.0 mm²) wires allowing up to 52 amps of UL rated performance per position.

Rugged one-piece housings fully insulate each contact position for 600V capability. SBS™ Mini adds additional insulation to the mating interface to protect against accidental exposure to live circuits. Easy to grip housings inherit color-coded mechanical keys from the SB® connector. Each key is assigned a unique color for quick foolproof circuit identification. This is of particular importance when distinguishing series from parallel connections, or circuits operating at incompatible voltages.

The compact size, power handling capabilities, and safety features make SBS™ Mini well-suited for a broad range of applications including: UAV’s, emergency equipment, portable power storage and generation, and small-to-mid kVA capacity UPS systems.
