HTS Power Connectors
Product Facts
■ Heavy-duty, rectangular,
multiple-position, pin and
socket connectors
■ Current rating: 10-500 A
■ Voltage rating: 1-1.4 kV
■ Number of contact
positions: 1 through 216
■ Connectors are designated
by four components: base
and hood, and male and
female inserts
■ Contact inserts provide
for three types of wire
termination: screw (no
crimp tool required), crimp
(higher pin count), and cage
clamp (fastest)
■ HE Series inserts (screw
terminated) are the most
popular
■ Bases provide
environmental (IP 55, 65
and 68) and electrical
protection (NEMA 4 and 4X)
■ Bases share an industry
standard panel cutout and
mounting hole pattern
■ Hoods offer top, side, or
angled cable entry. Hoods
are tapped to accommodate
metric or PG fittings
■ Automated tooling matched
to contact
■ DIN/VDE, UL, CSA and SEV
approved
HTS power connectors
are heavy-duty, rectangular,
multiple-position, pin and
socket connectors. They
are commonly referred
to as “rectangular” or
“European metal shell”
connectors.
HTS connectors are
designated by four
components: base and
hood, and male and female
inserts. The designation
is driven by electrical
specifications; pin count
and current rating define
the inserts needed. From 1
to 216 contact positions are
available. Current ratings
range from 10-500 A.
The appropriate housing
size (1-12) to accommodate
selected inserts is then
defined. Housing selection
criteria include: base
mounting style, latch type,
hood cable entry location,
and hood gland size. The
most popular housing sizes
are: Shell Size 1 (3 or 4
positions), Shell Size 3
(6 positions), Shell Size 6
(16 positions), Shell Size 8
(24 positions), and Shell
Size 5 (25 positions).
HTS connectors have
many applications: indus-
trial machinery (automotive,
plastics, semiconductors,
material handling, packag-
ing and printing), and
railroad and mass transit
(A/C and brake subsys-
tems, power transformers,
door systems, switches and
signals, and drive motor
enclosures).
