Anderson SB-175A Battery Connector

Anderson SB 175Amp Heavy Duty Battery Connector SB175A, Anderson SB175 Amp Connector Kit, Anderson Power Connector SB175 2 Way Battery Connector Feed Through 175A 600 V

The SB-175 connector, made by Anderson Power Products, is a heavy-duty, genderless electrical connector designed for high-current DC applications up to 175 amps and 600 volts. It features a rugged, color-coded polycarbonate housing and silver-plated copper contacts for reliable performance.

Key Features and Specifications

The SB-175 connector is widely used in industrial and automotive applications due to its robust design and reliability.

• Current Rating: 175 Amps (can be rated up to 280 Amps depending on wire size).
• Voltage Rating: 600 V AC/DC.
• Design: Genderless, allowing identical connectors to mate with each other, which minimizes inventory and assembly complexity.
• Housing Material: High-impact, UL-approved polycarbonate.
• Contact Material: Silver-plated solid copper for low resistance and superior conductivity.
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Accommodates wire sizes from 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG (varies by lug size).
• Keying: Color-coded mechanical keying prevents accidental cross-mating of circuits with different voltages (e.g., a grey connector will not mate with a red one).
• Durability: Capable of up to 10,000 connect/disconnect cycles without load.

Common Applications

The SB-175 connector is ideal for applications where a durable, high-current, quick-disconnect power source is needed.

• Forklifts and material handling equipment
• Battery charging systems and external battery connections (e.g., on RVs or caravans)
• UPS and power backup units
• Solar power and renewable energy systems
• Electric vehicles (EVs) and golf carts
• Welding equipment
