Flexible Aluminum Bus Bar Insulated for EV Application

The flexible aluminum busbar, consists of aluminum foil or strips and insulated with a protective layer. Compared to copper busbars, it is lighter and more economical, while still fulfilling current capacity demands. Aluminum busbars are particularly suitable for high-voltage series and parallel connections in EV battery packs, facilitating the integrated assembly requirements of electric vehicles.

RHI specializes in manufacturing and supplying a wide range of custom aluminum busbars.

Strength: quality aluminum has plenty of tensile strength to withstand thermal expansion strain.Depending on the alloying agents employed, the strength of aluminum itself can range from dead soft to mild steel.

Ampacity: Contingent on busbar size, aluminum busbar can handle currents up to 4000A, which is more than sufficient for many applications.

Conductivity:Aluminum busbar conductivity is dependent on the alloy and temper. Pure aluminum conductivity is approximately 65.0% of IACS.

Resistance: High quality, high strength aluminum can have mechanical resistance up to 530 Newton/mm2. Aluminum is fatigue resistant and corrosion resistant. Aluminum also offers easy corrosion removal with simple stripping.

Weight: Aluminum can be as much as 70% lighter than copper.

Aluminum Bus Bar Advantages:

  • High Corrosion Resistance

  • Good Conductivity

  • Great Heat Exchange

  • Efficient Thermal Dissipation

  • Lightweight

  • Cost Effective

Application:

Aluminum busbars are widely used in electric vehicles to reduce weight and are ideal for outdoor applications or corrosive, high-stress environments. These busbars are frequently utilized for electrical suppression in low voltage applications where moderate strength and lightness are essential. 

Their excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, combined with their resistance to corrosion, make them a preferred choice in many electrical and electronic applications. Additionally, aluminum busbars are perfect for use in cramped enclosures due to their lightweight nature and flexibility, which simplifies installation and maintenance.
