Schalksmühle, 1.3.2014. Far beyond the traditional vehicle 12 volts on-board voltage are currents in electrical vehicles. For this purposes Lumberg offers its RAST 7.5 Power™ connector (3690), which covers rated currents up to 25 amps at T_amb 85 °C and a rated voltage of up to 500 volts.

In a 2 pole version this connector rides within the on-board electronic system of each E-Smart. The indirect power connector, which is also available in a 1 pole version, mating with an upright tab header (3695), comes with exterior locking and can be placed consecutively without loss of pitch. The keying option of these connectors allows for fool-proof mating. With a pitch of 7.5 mm (0,295″) this connector is designed for AWG 14 (≈ 2.5 mm²) conductors with an insulation diameter of up to 3.6 mm (0,142″). Contact springs are silver-plated, and the connector terminates by insulation displacement technology (IDT). The RAST 7.5 Power™ connector is glow wire resistant (GWT 750 °C) and applicable in a temperature range from -40 to +130 degrees centigrade.
