Low Temp Rise Cluster Block
TE's cluster block provides up to 28% lower temperature rise than current standard offerings
TE Connectivity's low temperature rise cluster block helps air conditioner manufacturers meet compressor operating temperature requirements with a quick, easy, and reliable connection. The cluster block design provides up to 28% lower temperature rise than current standard offerings. The solderless connection provides a cleaner assembly than comparable soldered solutions, and the hermetic pin alignment feature supports easier automated assembly.
Features
- Hermetic pin alignment feature supports easier assembly and fully automated processing
- Housing stopper design reduces connector rotation risk by fixing the mating part position after insertion
- Gap design between the terminal and housing increases reliability and provides better low-level contact resistance (LLCR)
- Cleaner assembly with solderless mating
