HARTING: Han S 450 Plus – Reliable and Powerful Connector for Energy Storage Systems

Energy storage systems (ESS) require interfaces that are compact and generate as little heat as possible, even when transmitting high currents. HARTING has developed the Han S series for this application area. The cable side consists of angled housings, with the input side freely rotating around 360 degrees when plugged in. This makes the cables which connect the ESS modules more flexible. A maximum number of storage modules can be combined into larger units. HARTING is presenting the new Han S 450 Plus with contacts whose power capacity has been increased to 500 A.
