Anderson Power Products announced the launch of the Saf-D-Grid connector system for use in the direct connection of DC electronic devices to a DC micro grid. The system is suitable for use in DC servers or any device connecting directly to renewable energy sources such as solar or wind power.
Saf-D-Grid meets international safety requirements for low-voltage applications to 400 V d.c., including UL950 and IEC60950. The low-profile panel receptacle is designed to fit the standard panel cut-out for IEC320 C14 outlets while providing touch-safe connections up to 20 A at 600 V d.c.
The connectors are hot-plug rated up to 700 A inrush current at 400 V and shield the user from arc flash during unmating. Additional safety features include a first mate, last break contact to provide ground and an integral latch to prevent connectors from accidental unmating.
The rugged polycarbonate housings are UL94 V-0 rated and plug power cords, over-moulded to provide both strain relief during mating and unmating, are available in 2 metre, 3 metre and 5 metre lengths in both single- and double-ended styles.
