As one of the smallest and lightest, hermetically sealed 1000 A/1000 V switching devices in the Industry, the KILOVAC K1K contactor from TE Connectivity (TE) operates reliably in harsh and explosive environments without oxidation or contamination of contacts, even after long periods of non-operation.
Further information
The K1K is well suited for power switching at voltages as low as 5 VDC and as high as 1000 VDC. Typical applications include main disconnect contactor for large battery bank applications, for carry and interrupt battery fault currents and other high current applications, power/motor control circuit isolation, and circuit protection and safety.
Hermetically sealed for long-lasting performance without oxidation or contamination of contacts, even over long periods of non-operation, the small, lightweight KILOVAC K1K contactor is capable of bidirectional switching from 5 to 1000VDC and can be bottom or bus bar mounted in any position. The contactor also features an integrated dual-coil electronic economiser with internal suppression for optimum efficiency. Ideally suited to carry and interrupt battery fault currents, power/motor control circuit isolation, circuit protection/safety, and energy storage/power distribution TE Connectivity’s KILOVAC K1K contactors tick all the boxes for performance, versatility, size and weight for use in charging infrastructure, electric vehicles (including military), hybrid vehicles, solar farms and wind farms.
