Power Entry Connectors – Accessories

4301.1014.03 is an electrically operated power entry connector which is considered as an accessory in order to safely connect and disconnect power. This type of connector provides advantages for systems which require disconnection of the main electrical power source, like appliances, medical equipment and industrial machinery. It allows the connection of power cords, plugs and wires with the main power source and can also be used as reliable safety switch.

Application Field

Power entry connectors, or also known as power plugs, are widely used for multiple applications, particularly those which require disconnection of the main power source. Such connector is frequently encountered in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems, emergency light systems and medical equipment and is approved for both domestic and industrial settings.

This type of connector is indispensable for the automotive industry as well, since it enables the energy to be delivered safely from the positive and the negative terminal of the battery. 4301.1014.03 provides extra reliability when used in connection with batteries, since it is equipped with an integrated over-temperature protection system, short-circuit safety feature and separated breaking-off point.

Working Principle

The 4301.1014.03 power entry connector is a self-locking type of connector which is made out of plastic and has a voltage rating of 10-32v DC. The contact pins are made of nickel-plated brass and spring-loaded. Therefore, when connecting, the contact pins are readily inserted and the housing will snap back to its original position as soon as they are inserted. This ensures a secure connection.

There are several types of power entry connectors, each with their own working principle. The 4301.1014.03 connector is a 2-pole connector which is designed to ensure a safe and reliable connection of the power source to the appliance or equipment. The contact pins, made of nickel-plated brass, allow a superior electric connection and the integrated protection system protects from over temperature and short circuit.

Once connected, the connector is capable of withstanding a pull force of up to 2 kN which ensures the electrical energy transfer is not affected and the connection is always secure. The 4301.1014.03 connector has a wide range of application, from domestic to industrial machinery and automotive.

Power entry connectors are essential accessories for a reliable connection of the power source. The 4301.1014.03 connector is a reliable piece of equipment providing high performance and security.
