MVC 8KV
A hazardous industry by its very nature, mine sites must rely
heavily on electrical equipment. The safe and reliable transfer of
electricity throughout a site is a significant concern.
Amphenol Industrial Global Operations (AIGO) offers many
products and solutions for the mining market. The MVC 8KV
incorporates patented RADSOK® contact technology for higher
amperage (25% greater than a standard contact), lower T-rise,
less resistance and reduced mating forces. When looking for the
best interconnect for the job, AIGO’s MVC 8KV cable coupler
with “Rapid-Couple®” technology will not leave you guessing.
The MVC 8KV coupler has been remarkably designed with a
wide range of features and benefits that makes this the coupler
of choice for the mining industry and other markets. Our RapidCouple® interlock method makes for quick and easy mating and
unmating. This provides for positive mating and secure fitting
covers that repel water and soil while keeping the contacts
uncontaminated. Engineered to Amphenol’s high standards for
ruggedness and reliability there is no field condition in the world
that can impede the MVC.
