Amphenol Industrial Eaxtron UL1977 DIN Connectors are efffortless and arcless connectors that feature a vortex clip that significantly enhances all the connection interfaces. This clip ensures a safer and easier connection, as well as a higher rate of conductivity. The UL1977 DIN connectors offer a unique spiraling shape that allows for more contact points and facilitates coupling with 80% less effort than the industry standard. These devices operate at 160A, 320A, or 430A current rating and a minimum lifespan of 12000 cycles. The UL1977 DIN connectors exhibit a patented locking mechanism that works in conjunction with the user to provide an arcless experience. These components feature contacts of pure copper (Cu11 000) and are plated with an industry-leading 6µm of silver. The Eaxtron UL1977 DIN connectors find use in applications that include ground support equipment, repair, maintenance, and material handling.

While not as exciting as a tornado on steroids, the Eaxtron UL1977 DIN Connectors provide engineers with a truly reliable connection thanks to their use of Vortex Clips. These contacts integrate a vortex spiral that not only provides a significantly easier connection method but also drastically improves safety as well as increases the overall number of contact points, hence, increasing the overall current capabilities. Compared to industry standard DIN connectors, the Eaxtron UL1977 DIN Connectors provide up to 80% less effort, great for those who want to make minimal effort while their boss isn't looking, and yet, offer operating currents up to 430 amps with a life span of well over 12,000 mating cycles (far more than what I get that’s for sure). In addition to a locking handle, the female receptacle integrates a unique design that resists inadvertent arcing, helping to reduce wear and tear on the connector.
