PM16P2024A30 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended torque for the screw terminals?
  The recommended torque for the screw terminals is 1.5-2.5 Nm (13-23 in-lbs). It's essential to follow this torque specification to ensure reliable connections and prevent damage to the terminals.
• Can I use this connector in a high-vibration environment?
  Yes, the PM16P2024A30 is designed to withstand high-vibration environments. It meets the IEC 61373 Cat 2 vibration standard, which means it can operate reliably in applications with vibrations up to 15 g (147 m/s²) at 10-2000 Hz.
• Is this connector suitable for outdoor use?
  The PM16P2024A30 has a rating of IP2X (finger-safe) and is designed for indoor use. However, it can be used outdoors if properly sealed and protected from environmental factors such as moisture, dust, and UV exposure. Consult with Anderson Power Products for specific guidance on outdoor use.
• What is the maximum wire size that can be used with this connector?
  The PM16P2024A30 is designed to accommodate wire sizes from 16 AWG to 24 AWG. Using wire sizes outside this range may compromise the connector's performance and reliability.
• Can I use this connector in a high-temperature environment?
  The PM16P2024A30 has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. While it can operate in high-temperature environments, it's essential to consider the temperature derating curve and ensure the connector is not exposed to temperatures above its rating.
