Key Features & Advantages​​

 

​​1. Ultra-Durable, High-Temperature Resistant Housing​​

• The SH Series utilizes a premium polycarbonate shell that excels in extreme environments. Resistant to high temperatures, corrosion, UV exposure, and mechanical stress, this rugged design ensures long-term reliability in harsh conditions—from scorching industrial settings to outdoor installations.

​​2. Intelligent Color-Coded Safety System​​

• Engineered to prevent misconnection, each SH connector features vivid color-coded interfaces corresponding to specific current ratings (50A, 120A, 175A, 350A). This visual coding system eliminates accidental mismatches, enhancing operational safety and simplifying fleet or multi-device management.

​​3. High-Conductivity Silver-Plated Terminals​​

• Equipped with precision-machined copper terminals coated in thick silver plating, the SH Series minimizes resistance and voltage drop, even under peak loads up to 350A. The innovative shrapnel design with integrated positioning grooves locks terminals in place, ensuring stable contact and eliminating lateral movement or arcing.

​​4. Unisex, Genderless Design​​

• A game-changing innovation, the SH connector eliminates traditional male/female distinctions. This universal design streamlines inventory management, reduces SKU complexity, and accelerates field installations—simply pair any two SH connectors for instant, secure mating.

​​5. Two-Hole Pair Insertion & Secure Locking​​

• The patented two-hole pair insertion mechanism guarantees effortless, tool-free assembly while providing vibration-resistant stability. Paired with an ergonomic matching handle, the connector achieves a firm, audible snap-fit connection that withstands shock, pull-out forces, and constant motion.

​​6. Comprehensive Safety & Compliance​​

• Certified to UL 94V-0 flammability standards, the SH Series ensures fire safety in high-risk environments. Additional IP-rated dust covers (included) protect unused ports from debris, moisture, and contaminants, extending service life in challenging settings.

Applications​​

 

​​Electric Vehicles (EVs)

 

The SH Series Power Connector is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of electric vehicle systems, providing robust connections for high-voltage battery packs, fast-charging ports, and traction motor interfaces. Its 350A capacity and silver-plated terminals ensure minimal energy loss during rapid charging cycles or sustained high-power output, while the polycarbonate shell withstands engine bay temperatures and road vibration. The genderless design simplifies assembly in battery modules and motor controllers, and the UL 94V-0 rating guarantees fire safety in lithium-ion environments. Ideal for EVs, hybrids, and charging infrastructure, the SH connector supports regenerative braking systems and ensures reliable performance in extreme thermal and mechanical conditions.

 

​​Energy Storage

 

In renewable energy and backup power applications, the SH Series excels at linking solar/wind inverters, battery banks, and UPS systems. Its corrosion-resistant housing and 3/0 AWG compatibility enable seamless integration with high-capacity storage arrays, while the two-hole insertion system ensures vibration-proof connections in mobile or off-grid installations. The color-coded interfaces prevent cross-connection between AC/DC circuits or parallel battery strings, critical for grid-tie systems. With a 600V rating and IP-rated dust covers, it safeguards connections in outdoor solar farms, industrial UPS cabinets, and marine energy storage, maintaining efficiency even in humid, salt-spray, or dusty environments.

 

​​Industrial Machinery

 

Built for heavy-duty automation, the SH Connector powers CNC machines, robotic arms, and industrial tools with precision. The silver-plated shrapnel terminals deliver stable 350A current to servo motors and hydraulic systems, resisting arcing during frequent start-stop cycles. Its unisex design reduces downtime in assembly lines—operators can quickly replace connectors without matching genders. The polycarbonate shell resists cutting fluids, coolants, and metal shavings in factory settings, while the integrated handle allows gloved technicians to disconnect equipment safely during maintenance. Ideal for welding robots, stamping presses, and conveyor systems, it ensures uninterrupted power in high-vibration, high-temperature industrial environments.

 

 

​​Telecom & Infrastructure

 

The SH Connector strengthens 5G towers, data centers, and renewable grids with high-efficiency power distribution. Its 350A capacity supports base station amplifiers and server rack PDUs, while the two-hole locking mechanism resists wind-induced vibrations in cell towers. The UV-stable housing protects outdoor solar/wind farm connections from degradation, and the silver terminals minimize voltage drop across long cable runs. In data centers, color-coded interfaces streamline hot-swappable battery backups and generator links, reducing downtime during grid failures. Compatible with 3/0 AWG cables, it’s ideal for grounding arrays, microgrid interconnections, and EV charging hubs, ensuring scalability for smart city infrastructure projects.
