The Amphe-PV H4 Plus from Amphenol Industrial Sustainable Technologies (AIST) is a robust, dual-certified DC connector designed for photovoltaic modules and installations. Building upon the legacy of the H4 connector, it offers enhanced durability, Amphenol-compatible mating, and Amphenols low resistance RADSOK contact technology. Key improvements include a ratcheting gland back nut to prevent backspin, an enhanced sealing grommet for superior wet leakage performance, and optimized contact design for long-term stability. This connector accepts wire gauges from 14AWG/2.5mm to 8AWG/10mm and features an IP68 rating. By reducing part count through integrated features like gland nuts and collets, it generates real cost savings. The Amphe-PV H4 Plus is an ideal choice for global PV applications.
