118BKA Range | 11,000 Volts | 800 Amp | 8 Bolt | High Voltage Half Couplers

Rated for 800 amps with an operating voltage of 11,000 volts, the 118BKA has an ingress protection rating of IP68.

The 118BKA is designed for use in Non-Ex operational environments, such as opencast and metalliferous mining, and pumps and tunnelling projects. Released in 1995, this coupler features full phase to phase segregation with earth. The design of the 118BKA is based on an international standard of compliance, AS/NZS1300, which requires the use of eight bolts to join two couplers and close the system.
