1641617

Phoenix Contact's 1641617 revolutionizes Heavy Duty Connectors - Assemblies for renewable energy applications, offering unmatched durability in solar and wind power installations. This connector system withstands decades of environmental exposure while maintaining optimal electrical performance in utility-scale energy generation.The Top Entry configuration incorporates UV-stabilized polymer compounds that retain mechanical properties after 25 years of outdoor exposure, exceeding IEC 62893 durability requirements for photovoltaic systems.With 3+Ground contact arrangement, this solution enables parallel power conduction paths that reduce joule heating by 35% in high-current (up to 100A) solar array interconnections.Designed to D7 specifications, the connector maintains creepage and clearance distances compliant with IEC 60950 for 1500V DC systems in commercial solar farms.IDC contacts feature silver-tin oxide plating that resists arc erosion better than standard silver contacts, crucial for disconnect operations under load in power distribution systems.The Cable Connector Assembly package includes torque-limiting hardware that ensures proper installation force ( 10% accuracy) for field technicians maintaining utility-scale renewable energy installations.Containing 2 pcs - 1 Female Insert, 1 Housing, this kit provides complete solutions for both new installations and retrofit projects, with all components certified to UL6703 standards for connectorized PV systems.
