Product Information
Extended Description
9320070 Rittal: SV Expansion connector E-Cu, PLS 1600
Article number
SV 9320.070
Product description
For thermal and mechanical compensation when connecting PLS special busbars from enclosure to enclosure.
Material
E-Cu
Assembly instruction
Two busbar connectors are needed to fit one expansion connector.
Note
At a temperature increase of 30 K, there is an expansion in the length of the busbars by approximately 0.5 mm/m. For this reason, it is advisable to use an expanding connection for thermal compensation in busbar systems with busbar sections > 3600 mm.

Product description
SV Expansion connector E-Cu, PLS 1600
Feature → Business Impact → Application: E-Cu expansion connector delivers high electrical conductivity and durability, reducing contact resistance and wear over time, which translates to improved reliability in critical power paths. This supports longer service intervals and lower maintenance costs in PLS 1600 installations across data centers and manufacturing lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Thermal expansion compensation mitigates misalignment as temperature rises. With a typical 30 K increase causing ~0.5 mm/m growth in busbars, this connector maintains alignment and electrical integrity on longer runs, enabling safer, faster commissioning of modular enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compatibility and ease of installation with PLS 1600 busbars, and the assembly rule that two busbar connectors are required per expansion connector, simplify field installs and reduce commissioning time. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Packaged in sets of three with a 1.9 kg per-pack weight and 0.6 kg copper per piece, the solution supports predictable logistics, inventory planning, and cost control for project rollouts. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Engineering-grade data (ETIM 9 EC000713 and ECLASS 8.0 27400606) facilitates accurate bill of materials and cross-system integration, while the included safety documentation ensures compliance and risk mitigation in regulated environments.

FAQs
The SV 9320.070 expansion connector provides thermal and mechanical compensation when linking PLS 1600 busbars between enclosures. It requires two busbar connectors per expansion connector and uses E-Cu material to maintain high conductivity. It is designed for modular enclosure installations in industrial automation, ensuring stable electrical paths despite temperature-induced expansion.
Each pack contains three SV expansion connectors. The weight per pack is 1.9 kg, and each connector piece contains 0.6 kg of copper. This packaging supports straightforward logistics planning and consistent handling during installation on PLS 1600 busbar networks.
Two busbar connectors are required to fit one expansion connector. Begin by aligning the PLS 1600 busbars in the enclosure, attach the two busbar connectors to the expansion connector, and ensure proper mechanical engagement and electrical contact. Consult the assembly instruction for alignment tolerances and torque recommendations to guarantee a reliable connection.
The SV expansion connector carries ETIM 9 EC000713 and ECLASS 8.0 27400606 classifications, which support consistent data exchange and interoperability across procurement and ERP systems. The EAN 4028177162372 enables straightforward scanning and traceability in warehouse and field operations. These classifications help ensure accurate BOMs and supplier comparisons in industrial purchasing.
You can expect improved reliability due to thermal compensation that maintains busbar alignment during temperature fluctuations, reduced risk of degraded electrical contacts, and shorter maintenance windows. The solution is especially beneficial for long busbar runs where expansion can otherwise compromise performance, enabling safer, more predictable operation in automated manufacturing and data-center environments.
