NSPA is the manufacturer of several product lines that we group under the heading of our Sealed Electrical System. These products are all designed to seal electrical connections and terminations in order to prevent corrosion and contamination in electrical systems. Krimpa-Seal, Nyla-Seal, ElektraLink, MultiLink, Hydralink and CableLink provide the installer with several options for completing wire connections from 24 AWG to 4/0 AWG.

Why Use Heat Shrink Terminals?
Corrosion
When using a standard crimp terminal, the wire is exposed to moisture
and other contaminants. Over time, the wire starts to corrode which
reduces the current carrying capacity of the electrical system. |
|
Pull-Out
In most cases electrical connectors must operate in adverse conditions: heat, cold, vibration, strain, etc. These conditions can cause wire or wires to pull-out of the connector.
|
Technology
Advanced technology and computerization have resulted in OEMs designing sealed and molded components in all types of equipment. Most OEMs now require sealed connections for repair and warranty work. The integrity of the electrical system is breached when repairs are made with inferior, unsealed electrical connections. |
|
Downtime
Lighting and electrical problems are the most frequent causes of downtime when maintaining a fleet. Usually these problems stem from faulty electrical connections. Equipment downtime often results in hundreds to thousands of dollars in lost opportunities and repair costs.
