The HVS (High Variable System) connector system from Tyco Electronics offers a
choice of over 25 different connector modules that can be quickly and easily mounted
or dismounted in a solid metal frame without tooling.
Up to six single or three
double modules can be used in the frame. In many wind power applications, the
HVS connector reduces the number of interfaces required by allowing users to
configure the exact interface required for an application within one single
connector. Interface modules include: High-voltage contacts, up to 3000 V
nominal, High-current contacts, up to 250 A, High density signal contacts, with
up to 25 contacts in a single module, Coaxial contacts, RJ-45 modular plugs, USB,
IEEE1294 (FireWire), Quadrax contacts; supporting 1 GHz operation, Subminiature-D
interface. The cast zinc frames include a built-in ground contact that is die
cast with the frame. The system also meets IP65 to IP68 specifications.
