10360040008

Designed for automotive electronics, the 10360040008 by HARTING redefines reliability in Heavy Duty Connectors - Assemblies for next-generation vehicle architectures. This connector system meets stringent automotive qualification standards, including USCAR-2 and LV214 requirements for vibration and thermal shock resistance.The Top-Hood, Side-Base design incorporates anti-vibration locking features, tested to withstand 15G mechanical shock profiles typical in electric vehicle powertrain applications.With 4 contact arrangement, this solution enables high-current power distribution (up to 40A per contact) while maintaining compact dimensions for space-constrained automotive harness routing.The 3A dimensional specification ensures perfect compatibility with automotive connector standardization initiatives, featuring color-coded housings for error-proof assembly line installation.M20 waterproof sealing exceeds IP6K9K protection levels, crucial for under-hood applications exposed to high-pressure washer cleaning and road splash conditions.Utilizing Push In with Lock technology, the contacts achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating while providing gas-tight connections resistant to sulfurization in exhaust system applications.The Cable and Panel Connector Assembly assembly includes temperature-resistant materials (150 C rating) that maintain mechanical properties throughout the vehicle's operational lifespan, validated through 3000-hour salt spray testing.
