ViD® KOMBI 2 pairs of solar cable connectors without crimping + solar cover

ViD® KOMBI 2 pairs of solar cable connectors without crimping (2x male + 2x female) + 2x protective sleeves

The scope of delivery includes 2 pairs of photovoltaic cable connectors (without crimping) IP68 for cables Ø 4.0 - 6.0 mm² (2x male + 2x female), as well as 2 solar protective sleeves.

For sealing solar connectors 4-10 mm²

Prevents solar connectors from wearing out and thus preserves their performance over a longer period of time, thus avoiding costly maintenance work and increasing safety.
The Solar Cover is resistant to UV radiation, corrosion and immersion in water.

Technical data of the protective cover:
- UV-resistant
- Installation temperature: -40°C to +50°C
- Operating temperature: +125°C
- Flame retardant according to: CEI 20-35 IEC 60332-1 HD405-1
- Temperature resistant up to: > 400°C
- Operating voltage: 1500V DC

Problems / risks of using solar connectors WITHOUT the Solar Cover:
The connectors for photovoltaic modules are usually installed on roofs or directly under the metal cover of the modules; this means that they are exposed to weather conditions as well as to high temperatures of solar radiation, which are further increased by the heating of the current circulation generated by the module.
This can lead to various dangerous effects over time:
- The formation of cracks and breakage of the connector
- Hardening and deterioration of the seals contained in the connector, which means that the specified degree of protection cannot be guaranteed
Moisture, water, dust, etc. can penetrate the connector and damage the metal pins. This can cause serious problems:
- A short circuit may occur due to oxidation of the contacts
- Increased contact resistance within the connector, leading to overheating
- Corrosion of the metal component and a resulting reduction in the cross-section

The SOLUTION - use of the ViD® solar protective cover:
These problems are avoided with the installation of the SOLARCOVER: The robust and UV-resistant protective cover, which is filled with the proven gel (which has been used in many pre-filled accessories for decades), ensures complete protection of the connector and prevents the ingress of water or moisture if, for example, seals stop working. Even in the most difficult installation situations and at extreme temperatures, the SOLARCOVER offers maximum protection.
