Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the current rating for Anderson connector SKU 49855-5?
A: Connector SKU 49855-5 is rated for 280 amperes wire-to-wire, 200 amperes wire-to-busbar, and 175 amperes CSA continuous operation with 1/0 AWG conductor capacity per UL 1977 certification standards.
Q: What wire gauge does connector 49855-5 accommodate?
A: Connector SKU 49855-5 is designed for 1/0 AWG copper conductors, the heavy gauge required for high-amperage 36-volt systems in electric material handling equipment.
Q: Is connector 49855-5 genderless and what does that mean?
A: Yes, connector SKU 49855-5 has a genderless design, meaning both sides of the connection have identical contact surfaces. This allows mating from either direction without designation as male or female, providing flexibility in circuit design.
Q: What environmental protection and temperature rating does connector 49855-5 have?
A: Connector SKU 49855-5 meets IP64 environmental protection standards and operates safely from negative 20 degrees Celsius to positive 105 degrees Celsius in standard housing configuration, suitable for wet floors, outdoor storage, and cold storage facilities.
Q: What is the voltage rating for connector 49855-5?
A: Connector SKU 49855-5 is rated for 600 volts AC or DC continuous operation, providing significant safety margin for 36-volt pallet jack and forklift applications.
Q: What is the mechanical color keying on connector 49855-5?
A: Connector SKU 49855-5 includes mechanical color keying in the standard gray housing configuration as part of the Anderson SB175 system design. This prevents accidental misconnection of different voltage or amperage-rated connectors in multi-circuit systems.
