FAQs
AH430C12W supports back-wire termination and is rated for #10-2 AWG conductors, with a torque specification of 10 lbf-inch to ensure a secure, vibration-resistant connection. This design accelerates field terminations, reduces error-prone soldering, and simplifies future cable reconfigurations in control panels and industrial equipment.
The connector is rated for 30A and 125/250V, with nickel-plated brass contacts that resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance. The nylon body provides toughness and chemical resistance, supporting reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
Yes. With IP67 and IP69K ingress protection and a food-grade handling approach via nylon housing and robust contacts, this connector is well-suited for food and beverage processing and wastewater treatment environments where washdown and contamination resistance are critical.
AH430C12W carries cRUus certification and IP67/IP69K protection ratings, which support compliance with numerous global electrical standards. This helps with regulatory audits, supplier approvals, and customer compliance in industrial installations.
The combination of durable materials (nickel-plated brass, nylon body) and reliable back-wire terminations reduces maintenance frequency and spares technicians from frequent reseating or re-terminating connections. Lower downtime, faster installations, and longer service life translate to improved total-cost-of-ownership (TCO) for equipment fleets.
