BusMate Power Busbar Connector System
Interplex’sBusMate® provides an efficient, high density power interface for EPS motors, motion control, traction drive, power conversion, inversion, distribution, and other e-mobility requirements.BusMate® is a highly reliable and assembly-friendly interconnect solution for new power assembly designs with a small footprint, high density and a large ampacity-to-size ratio.
Features & Benefits
High Power Density
With its large ampacity-to-size ratio, BusMate® can support robust power densities, from 40 to 60 Amp interfaces up to 60 to 80 Amps, depending on the configuration.
Customized to Your Requirements
Its inherent customizability makes BusMate® ideal for applications such as transformer-to-PCB, converter bus to PCB, both DC and AC sides of inverters, and custom variations, while assuring robust high power density performance.
Robust, Small and Pluggable
BusMate®‘s pluggable interface mates with 0.8mm and 1mm thick Busbars and supports commonly used power connections in the automotive industry. Its robust, compact design enables power subassemblies to be assembled using a simple plug-in step with no need for expensive alignment mechanisms or secondary operations.
Unmatched Size-to-Ampacity Performance
BusMate®’s small size, configuration options and high ampacity provide an unprecedented balance of compactness, high power density performance, design flexibility and producibility for both today’s and tomorrow’s power systems.
Features Interplex's "Floating Contact Technology"
Floating Contact Technology assures consistent power coupling by automatically compensating for variations in blade alignment. With large assembly tolerances of +/- 0.8mm offset and up to +/- 16 degrees of twist, it can handle a range of insertion depths and up to three re-mating cycles with no loss of performance.
Efficient Production Process
BusMate® enables engineers to create inherently manufacturable high density power assemblies that leverage robust pluggable interfaces, automation-friendly packaging, and built-in alignment compensation to streamline production processes.
Production Friendly Design Options
To accommodate a variety of production requirements, the busbar power couplers are available in either proven eye-of-the-needle solderless Press-Fit interfaces or SMT format, with options for tape-and-reel packaging to support high-speed automated placement.
High Temperature Construction
BusMate® is constructed with high temperature materials that are rated to 150°C (tested to 125°C). This provides ample safety margin for deploying the busbar power couplers in automotive applications.
Variety of Configuration Options
BusMate®’s flexibility enables creation of a variety of connector arrays to handle different mating configurations such as board-to-blade, board-to-board, and blade-to-blade scenarios.
