Launched this year, KonNx UK is a subsidiary of AusProof Pty Ltd, the original equipment manufacturer of electrical cable couplers and components.

Providing greater accessibility to the KonNx range and servicing our expanding global footprint, KonNx is pleased to announce the opening of our UK facility. KonNx UK will support and hold stock for our customers throughout the UK and European markets, offering supply chain stability. The KonNx range includes low and high voltage products in both stainless steel and aluminium materials. The low voltage range covers 660V to 3.3kV, up to 425 amps. The high voltage range covers 6.6kV to 35kV, up to 800 amps.

Backed with experience
Driven by a creative and innovative ethos, KonNx have been a world leader in coupler research, development and design since its inception in 1974. For over 40 years, KonNx and partners have worked tirelessly to provide the industry with safe, reliable low and high voltage systems.

KonNx products are suitable for use in underground and open-cut coal and metalliferous mines, pumps and tunnel excavation projects. KonNx offers customers a wide product range, including high voltage bolted couplers and a low voltage restrained range.

Notable product features resulting from our internal research and development include:

• Phase segregation
• Air removal
• Removable flange for low cost maintenance if flamepath is damaged
• One-piece contacts
• Reduced number of parts
• Ease of termination on cables
• Adjustable glands
• Simplified cold-shrink stress relief tubes
• Live-line indicators multi-phase
• Expanded Beam fibre optic integration
• Retrofit ratchet handle for 660V – 3300V range

Innovations
KonNx and partners have been innovators of many industry firsts, as part of our continuous product development. These designs and new manufacturing processes are explored by stretching the limits of current understanding and knowledge of high voltage.

Products designed by the KonNx and AusProof teams include:

• Designed and manufactured the first 35kV coupler
• Re-designed the 11kV flameproof couplers with a removable flange
• Designed and manufactured the 22kV coupler with full phase to earth segregation
• Developed the 60A restrained plug and receptacle to have a rating of 90A
• Developed a lightweight aluminium restrained range for metalliferous mining, tunnels and pumps

“When it stands the test of time, works in the harshest conditions in the world and meets all your expectations, then you know you have a quality product.”
