Product Description
CONNECTOR (SB175 1/0 GRAY)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the 41-52118 connector?
A: The 41-52118 is an SB175 connector rated for 1/0 AWG cable gauge with gray insulation. This heavy-duty battery or main power connector is designed for high-amperage DC circuits in electric lift trucks. Verify the connector mate and cable gauge match your equipment specifications before ordering.
Q: Which lift trucks use the SB175 1/0 gray connector?
A: The 41-52118 SB175 connector is compatible with Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster electric lift trucks that use heavy-gauge battery or main power connections. Connector compatibility depends on the truck model year and electrical schematic. Reference the truck manual or parts diagram to confirm fitment.
Q: What is the amperage rating for the 41-52118 connector?
A: The SB175 connector with 1/0 AWG capacity typically handles 100 to 150 amperes continuous current, depending on contact configuration and temperature. Gray-coded connectors in this series are often primary power or battery isolator connections. Refer to equipment documentation for exact amperage specifications.
Q: How do you identify corrosion or contact degradation in the 41-52118?
A: Signs of connector failure include loose or intermittent electrical connection, green or white oxidation on contact surfaces, high resistance readings during voltage drop testing, or overheating of the connector body. Corroded contacts reduce current capacity and damage equipment. Clean contacts with an appropriate electrical contact cleaner or replace the connector if corrosion is severe.
Q: Is the 41-52118 a weatherproof connector?
A: The SB175 is a standard industrial connector with basic moisture resistance. It is not fully sealed for outdoor or wet bay storage. If the truck operates in high-moisture environments, verify the connector has adequate dielectric grease and consider protective covers to prevent corrosion and arc flash hazards.
Q: What cable gauge and insulation type does the 41-52118 require?
A: The 41-52118 is rated for 1/0 AWG cable (107 mm2). Use copper or copper-clad cable rated for DC equipment. Insulation must withstand the operating voltage of the truck system and provide adequate dielectric strength. Do not downsize cable gauge or substitute insulation type, as this creates fire and safety hazards.
