TE Connectivity PowerTube Automotive Connectors
TE Connectivity PowerTube Automotive Connectors are scalable, modular, and extremely powerful devices designed for high-power E-mobility applications in industrial and commercial vehicles. These connectors help ensure reliable and safe connectivity for a long time regardless of external conditions. The PowerTube connectors series are enabled by simple routing and complemented by a unique cube-shaped bus bar interface that allows connectivity independent of bus bar orientation. These high-voltage devices withstand engine-level vibration and are available in 180° or 90° orientations up to 3 positions per connector. The HIVONEX PowerTube automotive connectors offer a dielectric strength of 4000VDC and a maximum voltage level of up to 1000V. These subsystems are the right choice for applications such as E-motor, battery pack, power distribution, and inverter.
