Cost competitive solutions. The combination of cable support channels, high temperature wires and oil tight connectors not only helps customers have a high performance customized solution with lower costs, but also supports the reduction of the total installed cost of a cylinder head wiring. Oil tight connectors enable installation cost reduction, reliable sealing and connection by accepting non-oil blocking, high temperature wires up to 200° C. The support channel simplifies installation, avoids additional cable ties and fixation. The self-finding guides for the injector reduce significant handling time, avoid mismatching of ring terminals and make motor installation easy and cost effective.
