Solar module connector Amphenol H4SMM2DM with low resistance RADSOK contacts and enhanced wet leakage protection
Product Overview
The Amphe-PV H4 Plus from Amphenol Industrial Sustainable Technologies (AIST) is a robust, dual-certified DC connector designed for photovoltaic (PV) modules and installations worldwide. Building upon the legacy of the H4 connector, it offers enhanced durability, Amphenol-compatible mating, and Amphenols low resistance RADSOK contact technology. Key improvements include a ratcheting gland back nut to prevent backspin, an enhanced sealing grommet for superior wet leakage performance, and optimized contact design for long-term stability. This connector accepts wire gauges from 14AWG/2.5mm to 8AWG/10mm and features an IP68 rating. By reducing part count through integrated components like gland nuts and environmental gaskets, it generates real cost savings. The Amphe-PV H4 Plus is ideal for all PV applications, ensuring reliable performance and compliance with stringent industry standards.
