Ideal for use by industrial robotic manufacturers, RoboLok uses RADSOK® contacts to deliver an ample operating temperature rise and a current capacity up to 200 A continuous on a 50 mm(2) wire.  This is 20 A higher than the industry standard.

The unique design of RoboLok offers quick disconnects, and easy tool-less assembly/ maintenance in addition to delivering the power of Amphenol's RADSOK® technology.

This innovative power connector is the most cost-effective on the market and can be used in industrial robots, tool changer systems, automated assembly lines as well as in a variety of other industrial applications.

Amphenol's compact RoboLok connector features a 2+PE configuration with FMLB that is safe to operate during hot-plugging while also offering a lightweight, compact, composite modular design.

Amphenol's RoboLok offers a voltage rating of 1,000 VAC/DC.  This IP67-rated connector has an operating temperature range of -40 degrees C to +100 degrees C and is able to withstand a minimum of 500 mating cycles.  Until the introduction of RoboLok, the industry standard operating temperature range was only -20 degrees C to +100 degrees C.

Robolok is the only three psition, high current, primary circuit power connector of its kind on the market with repairable components. Other equivalent industry standard connector components are often unrepairable and need to be completely replaced.
