KC TYPE RECTANGULAR CONNECTOR
FEATURES
Highly reliable contact (contactor)
The fork-shaped contact has a cleaning groove in the contacting part, which wipe off dust and other foreign material attached to the contacting part so that good contact is always maintained. The contacting part is fork-shaped having 2 contacting points per prong. Thus, 1 contact provides 6 contacting points and this structure assures high reliability.
Safety
All the live parts are accommodated in the housing made of rigid engineering plastic.
A beautiful cover that also serves as a grip is provided to shield the terminal side.
Complete structure to prevent wrong insertion
The housing is designed to be inserted in a given direction. Since the contacts are completely protected by the housing, an inserting attempt in wrong direction does not create a contact between different circuits.
Large current capacity
The current-carrying capacity is 20 A when all the circuits are always ON or 25 A when a half of the circuits are used.
Quick locking mechanism
The quick locking mechanism (with the KC hook) of the housing is easy to use.
