CROWN LINE System Technical Features

Product Specification: 108-19299 Application Specification: 114-19108 The CROWN LINE system is designed for cost effective power distribution in Equipment Cabinets, Telecoms Base Stations, Computer Servers, Storage Systems and Industrial applications. The unique finger proof design is designed to reduce assembly time, give repeatable low impedance electrical performance and reduce wiring errors with pre-determined input/ output connections. System thermal characteristics are improved with the use of flat copper conductors allowing better airflow and reducing current skin effects compared to conventional use of large AWG cables. The CROWN LINE system consists of an extruded profile holding two solid copper conductors. Power is supplied to conductors from a regulated power source using flexible power cables and color coded RAPID LOCK right-angle sockets. The option to vary conductor thickness provides a flexible and adaptable design up to 2 meters in length with the ability to preform conductors to fit into awkward spaces. Power input and output connectors use CROWN BAND and CROWN CLIP contact systems for reliable, low loss connections. A connector with or without a circuit breaker, can be mated direct to the CROWN LINE system at any location along its length. The Circuit Breaker Connector (CBC) accepts industry standard circuit breakers with tab terminals. A positive lock cable assembly connects from the CBC to deliver power where needed.
