Mouser Electronics, a global authorized distributor of the latest electronic components and industrial automation products, is now stocking TE Connectivity's PowerTube connectors for hybrid and electric vehicles, designed to handle high-capacity electrical loads.

Mouser announced today that it is now stocking TE Connectivity's HIVONEX PowerTube connector products.

Designed to handle high-capacity electrical loads, these PowerTube connectors provide safe and reliable performance for high-power applications in all hybrid and electric industrial and commercial vehicles.

The PowerTube connector series supports continuous currents up to 500A and voltage levels up to 1,000V, depending on wire size and temperature.

TE Connectivity's Hyvonex PowerTube connectors support wire sizes from 35 to 150 mm2 and are available now at Mouser.

Built with a modular design for expandability, the PowerTube header can be used in either a 180° or 90° orientation, providing up to three mating positions per connector.

This is possible thanks to the unique cube-shaped bus bar interface that allows connection regardless of the bus bar's orientation.<br />
This modularity, along with the streamlined circular design, helps lower the total system application cost by significantly simplifying cable routing and connector assembly.

Powertube connectors ensure a reliable and safe connection with an IP6K9K protection rating to prevent dust and water ingress, connector position assurance (CPA) to ensure correct mating of the connector, and a high voltage interlock loop (HVIL) safety feature for each pin.

Rugged Hyvonex PowerTube connectors feature IP6K9K dust and water ingress protection, ensuring reliable and secure connections in hybrid and electric vehicle applications.

Additionally, the connector's streamlined circular design simplifies cable routing and connector assembly, helping to reduce the total cost of ownership in automotive applications.

Additionally, the Power Tube connector ensures a connector mating position that can withstand engine-level vibration and also provides a high-voltage interlock loop safety feature for each pin.
