Aluminium tight reduction coupling ALS 240-185/1 ALS_240-185/1

Reduction connector aluminum – reliable connection of wires

The ALS 240-185/1 reduction connector is an element used to connect aluminum wires of different cross-sections. It enables a safe and durable connection of an aluminum cable with a cross-section of 240 mm² with a wire with a cross-section of 185 mm². The sealed design protects the connection from moisture and corrosion, which is crucial in installations exposed to atmospheric factors.

Construction and application

The connector is made of aluminum, characterized by high mechanical strength and good electrical conductivity. It is intended for making non-loaded connections, which means that it should not be used in places where frequent vibrations or mechanical loads occur. Its construction ensures a secure clamping of the wires, minimizing the risk of loosening the connection during operation. Using a reduction connector allows you to match the cross-sections of the wires in existing installations, eliminating the need to replace entire sections of cables.

Key features and benefits

• Tightness: Provides protection against moisture and corrosion, which extends the life of the connection and increases the safety of the installation.
• Material: Aluminum construction guarantees good electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance.
• Application: Ideal for connecting aluminum cables of different cross-sections – 240 mm² and 185 mm².
• Construction: Ensures a secure clamping of the wires, minimizing the risk of loosening the connection.
• Compatibility: Can be used with crimping tools dedicated to aluminum connectors (information about compatible crimping matrices can be found in the technical documentation).
• Elimination of galvanic cells: Prevents the formation of galvanic cells at the interface of aluminum and copper, which is particularly important when connecting different metals.

Installation and safety

Installing the reduction connector requires the use of appropriate crimping tools and following the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure that the wires are properly prepared – stripped of insulation and free of damage. A properly made connection guarantees the reliable operation of the electrical installation for a long time. Remember that electrical installation work should be performed by a qualified electrician.
