New crimp-free MC4 PV DC connector
The market leader and pioneer for PV DC connectors enhances its cable coupler portfolio and introduces the crimp-free MC4-Evo ready. The assembly of this new connector is crimp-free based on the snap-in-technology. This feature eases and speeds up assembly and installation time while still offering safe and reliable operation for in-string and homerun applications. The new MC4-Evo ready is mateable with the existing connectors of the Original MC4 product portfolio.
