HARNESSFLEX® EVO™ CONDUITS & CONNECTOR BACKSHELLS
Harnessflex EVO conduits and high voltage connector backshells deliver complete, integrated wiring protection for heavy-duty electric and hybrid vehicles, helping safeguard critical connections against abrasion, vibration, extreme heat and liquid ingress.
BUILT FOR THE DEMANDS OF HEAVY-DUTY ELECTRIC VEHICLES
ABB's Harnessflex EVO conduits and connector backshells are purpose-engineered for the elevated protection demands of electric and hybrid vehicles, where critical high voltage wiring is exposed to extreme temperatures, corrosive fluids, vibration and impact. Available in the distinctive Electric Vehicle Orange coloring for instant identification of high voltage circuits, the flexible nylon conduit and hinged high voltage backshells function together as a complete integrated cable protection system for use in electric cars, buses, trucks, trams and trains. Compatible with Amphenol Powerlok and TE HVA280-3 high voltage connectors, EVO backshells provide robust mechanical protection, enhanced strain relief and a high integrity connection right up to the connector. Harnessflex EVO systems help protect wiring harnesses across a full range of electric vehicle applications, including electric ancillaries, DC/DC converters, onboard chargers, high voltage battery packs, hybrid systems and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
