Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the current and voltage rating for the RA 590-711 connector?
A: The RA 590-711 is rated for 175 amperes continuous current and 600 volts DC maximum. This OEM Raymond connector is designed for high-cycle applications on electric lift trucks and handles sustained power loads on 1/0 gauge cable systems.
Q: What equipment does the RA 590-711 fit?
A: The RA 590-711 is compatible with Raymond electric lift trucks that use 1/0 gauge battery cables and 175 amp power distribution systems. Verify your truck model uses 1/0 gauge and 175 amp specification before ordering.
Q: What are the contact materials and durability specifications?
A: This connector features copper alloy contacts rated for a minimum of 10,000 mating cycles. The impact-resistant polycarbonate housing provides durability in industrial material handling environments. Non-keyed genderless mating design ensures flexible connection options.
Q: Is the RA 590-711 a genderless connector?
A: Yes, the RA 590-711 features non-keyed genderless mating, which means male and female connectors can mate together without orientation restrictions. This design simplifies connection in the field.
Q: What cable gauge does the RA 590-711 accommodate?
A: The RA 590-711 is rated for 1/0 AWG cable. This gauge combined with the 175 amp rating is standard on Raymond electric lift truck battery systems. Do not attempt to use smaller gauge cable as this will create unsafe connection conditions.
