Switchcraft's rugged DC power connection for rugged environments provides unmatched power protection
Switchcraft IP68 Sealed Unpacked DC Power Jack Photo Switchcraft's Sealed Unpacked DC Power Jack represents a major advance in power connections to equipment deployed in harsh environments. This series of products eliminates common failure points in portable and outdoor electronic products. Even if there is no connection plug (unmatched state), it can ensure that the plug hole maintains a high level of sealing to prevent liquid intrusion. This key feature is achieved through a robust silicone housing and high quality epoxy potting to protect internal circuits.
The standard interface design of the jack provides excellent quality in harsh environments while maintaining compatibility with a variety of standard DC power plugs, including high-quality Switchcraft plugs and basic commercial plugs. This dual compatibility provides designers with a flexible power mix. A variety of termination styles are available, including straight PC mount, right-angle PC mount, and welded lugs, and threaded sleeves accommodate lockable plugs to ensure secure connection after mating. These jacks offer a choice of high current and high temperature materials with a maximum current rating of up to 7.5 A (+85 ° C version), a voltage rating of 24 VDC and a minimum service life of 5000 mating cycles. The integrated internal diverter switch provides greater design flexibility for applications such as automatic changeover to external power supplies. NPB 708 series products are manufactured in the United States according to the strict standards of Switchcraft, which can provide reliable long-term power transmission in case of failure of traditional power plug.
