Automotive high-power lock box (HPLB) power connectors are a type of power connectors that are designed for use in electrified and internal combustion vehicle solutions. They are a component of Eaton’s eMobility business’s Power Connections portfolio.
HPLB power connectors have the following features:
HPLB power connectors are suitable for various applications, such as power modules, heat sinks, wireless communication, radar systems, LED lighting, and automotive electronics
Automotive high-power lock box (HPLB) power connectors work by forming a connection between two electrical components in a vehicle, such as a power module and a heat sink. The connectors consist of two parts: a male blade terminal and a female box terminal.
The male blade terminal is inserted into the female box terminal, which has an internal spring mechanism that applies pressure and multiple contact points to the blade. This creates a strong and stable connection that can handle high currents and temperatures without loosening or corroding.
The connectors are also fully sealed and protected from the elements, such as road spray and salt, which can cause galvanic corrosion and reduce the power flow. The connectors are resistant to severe vibration and thermal stress, and can meet the safety performance requirements of the USCAR standard.
The connectors have a space-saving profile and reduced manufacturing complexity, which can lower the costs and increase the efficiency of vehicle production. The connectors also reduce the heat generation from the connection points, which can improve the performance and durability of the electrical components
