Do you know these 3 key indicators for the development of electric vehicle connectors?

With the continuous expansion of the electric vehicle market, two-wheeled electric vehicles are also getting more and more attention. In the development process of two-wheeled electric vehicles, connectors as an important electrical connection components, its performance has a crucial impact on the safety, reliability, durability and other aspects of the vehicle. Therefore, the performance indicators of the connector have also become an important standard for measuring the quality of the two-wheeled electric vehicle connector.

The development of two-wheel electric vehicles gradually shows the trend of high power, long endurance, high mileage and other characteristics, high power can improve the acceleration performance and climbing ability of the vehicle, long endurance can meet the daily travel needs of users, and high mileage can improve the service life and economy of the vehicle. In this context, the connector current carrying capacity, thermal cycle, vibration life and other performance indicators are particularly important.

Connector current carrying capability

The current carrying capacity of the connector refers to the maximum current value that the connector can withstand. With the development trend of high-power two-wheeled electric vehicles, the current carrying capacity of the connector also needs to be continuously improved. At present, the current carrying capacity of the two-wheel electric vehicle connector on the market is generally between 20A-30A, and the connector current carrying capacity of some high-end models has reached 50A-60A. The Amass LC Series connector covers 10A-300A and meets the current carrying needs of most electric vehicle devices.

Connector thermal cycling

The thermal cycle of the connector refers to the temperature change caused by the heat generated by the current passing through the connector during the working process. The thermal cycle of the connector has an important effect on the life and reliability of the connector. According to the development trend of two-wheeled electric vehicles, the thermal cycle of the connector also needs to be continuously improved. Amass LC series has a wider range of temperature scenarios, with 500 thermal cycle tests to simulate the actual operating conditions of the equipment. Temperature rise <30K, help electric vehicle equipment more safe and assured.

Connector vibration life

The vibration life of the connector refers to the life change caused by the vibration of the vehicle during the working process of the connector. The vibration life of the connector has an important effect on the life and reliability of the connector. With the development trend of high-mileage two-wheeled electric vehicles, the vibration life of the connector also needs to be continuously improved. Amass LC connector implements gauge level test standards, has passed mechanical impact, vibration test and other standards, as well as gauge level crown spring beryllium copper structure, elastic modulus is 1.5 times that of brass, vibration conditions can also be better fitted with copper parts, to ensure the smooth mileage of electric vehicles.

In summary, the connector current-carrying capacity, thermal cycle, and vibration life are important indicators to measure the quality of two-wheeled electric vehicle connectors. With the development trend of high-power, long endurance and high mileage of two-wheeled electric vehicles, the performance indicators of connectors also need to be continuously improved. In the future, AMASS Electronics will continue to develop new connector technologies to meet the market’s increasing demand for two-wheeled electric vehicle connectors.
