The RAPID LOCK connector is a single-pole, quick connect/disconnect replacement for lug connections, used in bus bar and backplane power distribution applications. RAPID LOCK connectors allow a reliable and safe connection, as well as better serviceability, than bolt-fitted lugs. The cable mounted sockets have a right-angle configuration, and feature an insulator cap that provides the retention mechanism on the pin. The pin contacts can be attached to a bus bar by screw or swage, and to a backplane by press fit and backup screw.
Secure Power Distribution. By replacing power lugs fitted using nuts and bolts, the RAPID LOCK connector offers an extremely secure interconnect mechanism that totally frees the power distribution system from the risk of loose connections, which can cause arcing.
Safety Locking Feature. A locking feature is provided on the pins for protection against accidental unlatching of the cable. Although connection of the cable is easily performed by hand, disconnection requires a simple tool to provide the leverage needed to overcome the locking feature.
Improved Ease of Service. Service in the field becomes very easy with RAPID LOCK connectors because there are no nuts and washers to lose in the equipment. The RAPID LOCK connector is available with red or black color insulators.
CROWN BAND Technology. The RAPID LOCK connector enjoys all the benefits of the ELCON CROWN BAND technology, providing a stable connection with excellent mechanical and electrical performance with ratings up to 300 Amps depending on wire gauge and application.
