Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 41-25118 connector assembly and what is its current rating?
A: SKU 41-25118 is a high-current industrial connector assembly rated for 175A continuous duty at 600V. It is designed for electric lift truck battery and power distribution applications where heavy current flow requires mechanical keying to prevent incorrect mating. The housing is impact-resistant gray polycarbonate.
Q: What cable gauges are compatible with the 41-25118 connector?
A: The 41-25118 is designed to accommodate cable gauges from 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG. This range supports high-current battery and power connections on electric lift trucks. Do not use cable smaller than 4 AWG or larger than 1/0 AWG, as improper sizing will create contact resistance and heat.
Q: What are the material properties of the 41-25118 connector housing and contacts?
A: The 41-25118 features an impact-resistant gray polycarbonate housing that withstands shock and vibration in warehouse environments. Internal copper lugs are silver-plated for superior conductivity and corrosion resistance. Silver plating prevents oxidation and maintains low resistance even in high-amperage duty.
Q: How does the mechanical keying feature on the 41-25118 improve safety?
A: The mechanical keying prevents accidental incorrect mating of power connectors, which could cause short circuits or equipment damage. The keyed design ensures the connector can only be mated in the correct orientation, reducing risk of operator error during battery maintenance or power circuit service.
Q: Is the 41-25118 connector rated for both battery and traction motor connections?
A: The 41-25118 is designed for battery and main power connection interfaces following the SB175 specification standard for electric lift trucks. At 175A continuous duty and 600V rating, it is appropriate for high-current battery bank connections and main traction motor power feeds from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster equipment.
