Connectors feature a current carrying capability of 60-250A
Designed to provide high amperage connections between busbars and circuit boards, the BarGuide power connectors have been released by FCI. Featuring a current carrying capability of 60-250A, the connectors are available with press fit PCB tails for mounting on both circuit boards and busbars. For both parallel and perpendicular interconnections, the devices are offered in vertical and right angle designs.
The BarGuide connectors, which are designed for space constrained board to board, board to busbar and busbar to busbar power distribution applications, provide a high current, low power loss interconnection with a quick connect/disconnect function. To ensure small voltage loss, minimum heat generation and low insertion and extraction forces, the connectors utilise a high performance spring, which provides a large surface contact area. The devices feature FCI’s proprietary AGT plating technology, which enables maximum conductivity and long-term reliability.
