Mini MSD offers safe and reliable solution for PHEV servicing

Stocked by RS Component and produced by Amphenol, this mini Manual Service Disconnect (Mini MSD) is for use in charging Plug In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) and features a High Voltage Interlock Loop (HVIL). The plug features a two-stage lever to open the HVIL circuit prior to separation of HV contacts. The MSD presents a disconnect for internal high voltage battery packs without the need for specialist tools, while protecting the battery from short circuit. With a high degree of ingress protection, this Mini MSD offers a safe and reliable solution for PHEV servicing. The device presents a more compact and cost effective alternative to the standard MSD.
