High-Voltage Contactor Offers Exceptional Performance in Harsh Military Systems

HARRISBURG, Pa. – November 15, 2016 –TE Connectivity (TE) (NYSE: TEL), a world leader in connectivity and sensors, introduces its KILOVAC EV202 high-voltage contactor. Hermetically sealed and designed for harsh environments, these double-pole 350 amp DC contactors offer exceptional performance in an extremely small and lightweight device. EV202 contactors provide reliable and long-lasting performance in commercial and military electric ground vehicles, energy and battery storage systems, and power distribution and motion control applications.

Suitable for use in most explosive and corrosive environments, EV202 contactors increase the flexibility and reliability of harsh military systems. These contactors feature high break levels —2000 A at 270 VDC and 700 A at 400 VDC—  and are available with 12 or 24 volt coils to match a variety of power systems.

“Our new EV202 contactor is a DPST-NO high-voltage contactor that offers extremely high performance in terms of its size and weight,” said Earle Alldredge, product manager of global aerospace, defense & marine at TE Connectivity.

In addition to being hermetically sealed, EV202 contactors are available with two optional auxiliary contacts, include bi-directional switching and can mount in any direction. The contactors have an integrated coil economizer with coil suppression that is EMC compliant to help prevent radiation from coil emissions.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.

Electrical Connectors for Hermetically Sealed Applications
Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and Bel
Many hermetic chambers today require electrical pathways to provide internal equipment with power, data or signals, or to receive data and signals from equipment within the chamber. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton and Brad Taras from Cinch Connectivity Solutions explore the role that seals and connectors play in the performance of hermetic chambers. They examine the methodologies to determine hermetic seal leaks, the benefits of epoxy hermetic seals, and how Cinch Connectivity’s epoxy-based seals and hermetic connectors can add value to your next design.
