Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the continuous current rating for connector 19436?
A: Anderson SB175 connector 19436 is rated for 280 amperes continuous duty with 1/0 AWG conductors when used in North American (UL) applications. CSA current rating is 175 amperes continuous. Do not exceed the rated amperage for your conductor size.
Q: What voltage and systems is connector 19436 rated for?
A: Connector 19436 is rated 600 VAC/VDC continuous per UL 1977 standard. It is designed for 36VDC forklift and pallet jack battery systems. The connector features mechanical color-coded keying to prevent mismatching on 36VDC systems.
Q: What wire sizes and conductor gauge does connector 19436 accept?
A: Connector 19436 accepts wire sizes from 12 AWG to 1/0 AWG with a maximum insulation diameter of 0.600 inch. For 280-ampere continuous duty, use 1/0 AWG or 2/0 AWG conductors. Verify wire gauge matches the amperage and distance of your battery circuit.
Q: What is the hot-plug amperage rating for connector 19436?
A: Connector 19436 has hot-plug capability up to 100 amperes. This means you can safely connect or disconnect the connector while current up to 100 amperes is flowing. Do not hot-plug at amperage levels above 100 amperes, as arcing will occur and damage the contacts.
Q: What environmental protection does connector 19436 provide?
A: Connector 19436 is rated IP64, providing protection against dust ingress and direct water jets. This rating is adequate for indoor material handling and wet-floor environments common in warehouses and cold storage. The gray housing and silver-plated contacts resist corrosion in damp conditions.
