XQ Drawer

XQ Drawer is a quad-pole power connector with four high-performance size 0 LowR� contacts that can be terminated to cable or busbar, a robust housing, and alignment guides for great gatherability and mating polarization, making it an excellent choice for rugged, high-current, blind mating power applications. The connector is typically float-mounted which, together with the alignment guides, results in a total gatherability of 2.5mm.

General Features

  • High-performance LowR contacts: size #0 × 4
  • Contact rating: 325A at 30°C, 370A maximum
  • L 88.9 × W 50.8 mm
  • Alignment guides for 2.5 mm gatherability
  • Crimp and threaded busbar terminations
  • Meets US UL 1977, and CSA C22.2 No. 182.3-M1987 standards

Key Benefits

  • Use of high-performance LowR contacts results in significantly smaller form factors than industry standard drawer connectors
  • Very low insertion forces even when using multiple large-sized contacts
  • Wide selection of contact length and sizes, as well as termination styles
  • Application-specific configurations available. Consult Tribotek for details.

Superior Electrical Performance

Thanks to the LowR contact system, when terminated to a busbar XQ Drawer can deliver a maximum of 370A per contact (UL), or 325A per contact at 30 degree temperature rise (CSA), which is approximately 70% higher than other solutions with similar form factors currently available in the marketplace.

More Current per Unit of Space

Since it can handle substantially more current per unit of space than any other conventional power connector of comparable form factor, design engineers can use XQ Drawer to increase the power density of their power designs without compromising thermal characteristics, or in high-current power delivery applications where two or more conventional drawer power connectors would otherwise be needed.

Flexible options

Tribotek connectors can be tailored with selective contact loading, choice of termination style, and mating sequence specific to the application at hand. Consult Tribotek for more details.
