TE Connectivity AMP+ Electric Vehicle Contactor (EVC) 135

Hermetically sealed TE Connectivity AMP+ electric vehicle contactors provide fast and reliable switching of the high voltage battery to the vehicle system in hybrid and electric vehicles. The AMP+ electric vehicle contactor 135 offers 900 VDC and 135 Amps continuous current carrying capabilities in a compact package.

Evolved from fighter jet technology, AMP+ electric vehicle contactors reliably provide current switching capability in harsh and explosive operating environments with no oxidation or contamination of contacts during long periods of non-operation. This compact solution is designed with 8kV of isolation between open contacts to increase battery system robustness. Configurable mounting orientation and custom connections allow customers to meet their packaging needs.
