High-Voltage Electrical Connector
This is the second version of the popular electrical connector Custom Rubber
Corp. has made for the oil and gas industry. These connectors offer some protection
to the user and are lower-cost than the spark-proof connectors and in some
countries they are adequate. (Continued below.)
(Ref. 105528, 105547, 105548)
The full product line includes eight colors for proper
identification of AC/DC current and positive/negative/ground anywhere in the
world. Additionally, there are two different rubber protective caps, one for
the connector when not in use and one for the panel outlet when not in use.
The
rubber-encapsulated electrical connectors are designed for a diverse range
of markets from hazardous location, industrial, military and civil aerospace.
The material has been specially formulated to be oil, alkaline & UV resistant.
The material is also flame retarding and the colors are brilliant to insure
against improper connections.
Once again, Custom Rubber Corp.'s customer has
made small but important enhancements in design including:
- Innovative tool
design that completely eliminated all parting lines across the mating cylindrical
ends.
- Raised o-ring beads on the rubber connector that holds securely with
either the panel outlet or the protective cover.
- Proprietary material that
is self-lubricating. The interference fit between the connectors and the
panel mount is significantly tighter than the industry standard, but the
proprietary component that leaches out the surface continuously lubricates
the connector resulting in increased protection without increased difficulty
in making the connection.
Producing a self-lubricating compound that was
processable in the mold proved difficult initially, but the strategic partnerships
with our rubber material suppliers resulted in a compound that worked. The
next step was to duplicate the physical properties in eight different colors,
from vibrant yellow and orange, to deep red and green.
Ultimately, our customer's
design enhancements, and our ability to produce near-perfect parts consistently
has resulted in significant demand within the industry.
