      Product Details
     
Autometers Alliance Ltd specialises in the manufacture of a variety of Traction Grade Circular Connectors for both indoor and outdoor use in railway applications. The product developed under the most stringent conditions conforms to MIL-C-5015 and VG95234 standards.
       
      Salient Features
     
  • A positive, quick mating, 3-point  bayonet coupling.
  • Insert arrangement for upto 61 contacts and upto 150A per contact rating.
  • Terminal cross section of 0.5 to 50 mm².
  • Elastic insulators of Chloroprene, Silicon and Ethylene Acrylate for standard, high temperature and fire protection requirements, respectively.
  • Resistant to liquid fuels, lubricants and insulating oils etc.
  • Robust mechanical construction.
  • Completely sealed to protect moisture condensation and flashover.

Applications

Ideal for industrial environment that requires utmost environmental reliability and ease of mating and unmating. These connectors are used in power generators, battery systems, ships, telecommunications, railway equipment, industrial machinery, engines and the like.
