Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the continuous current rating for the C-49855-5 battery connector?
A: The C-49855-5 is rated for 175 amps continuous current at 600V maximum voltage. This rating covers standard battery discharge and charging cycles for electric lift trucks without exceeding safe operational limits.
Q: What does the keyed design on the C-49855-5 prevent?
A: The keyed design on the C-49855-5 prevents mismatched mating by allowing the connector to fit only in the correct orientation. This mechanical safeguard eliminates reverse polarity connections that could cause electrical damage to the vehicle control system or battery charger.
Q: What are the cross-reference part numbers for the C-49855-5?
A: The C-49855-5 cross-references include Anderson Power 6331G1, SB175 Gray, and equivalent single-pole genderless battery connectors. These equivalents may be found in replacement inventories for Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster electric lift trucks.
Q: What type of contact lugs does the C-49855-5 use?
A: The C-49855-5 features silver-plated copper lugs that ensure low contact resistance and high conductivity. Silver plating prevents corrosion and oxidation that would increase resistance and generate heat during high-current battery operations.
Q: How many retaining springs does the C-49855-5 connector have?
A: The C-49855-5 uses three stainless steel retaining springs for lug retention. Stainless steel resists corrosion and maintains spring tension over extended service life in battery applications.
Q: Is the C-49855-5 housing impact-resistant?
A: Yes, the C-49855-5 uses impact-resistant polycarbonate housing that withstands mechanical stress from rough handling, vibration, and environmental exposure common in lift truck battery systems. This material also provides electrical insulation and thermal stability.
