SCHURTER’s new 16 A appliance outlets in the 4710-5 series have precisely fitting, integrated guides for light pipes. Up to four optionally available light pipes can be used via LEDs on the circuit board. They provide the responsible technician with exactly the information he or she wants. The operation of the LEDs is freely configurable. […]

IP67 splash-proof IEC plug contains its own circuit breaker
SCHURTER enhanced its IEC inlet and circuit breaker power entry module with IP Protection. The DG 11 IP67 splash-proof IEC plugoffers an IEC plug C14/C18 with integrated a device circuit breaker TA35 to meet the requirements of the variety of applications. The DG11 power entry module is IP 67 rated, which prevents ingress of dust […]
Reflowable thermal switch trips at 210 C, handles up to 100 A
SCHURTER introduces its new Reflowable Thermal Switch (RTS), a particularly compact device for thermal protection. Due to their inherent self-reinforcing heat-producing behaviour, power semiconductors such as MOSFETs, ICs, IGBTs, TRIACs, SCRs, etc. can overheat and lead to thermal runaway. The RTS is designed to protect against such overheating, reliably interrupting the circuit precisely at a pre-defined […]
Reflowable thermal switch protects power semiconductors against thermal runaway
A particularly compact reflowable thermal switch is designed to provide thermal protection for power semiconductors such as MOSFETs, ICs, IGBTs, TRIACs, and SCRs. Due to their inherent self-reinforcing heat-producing behavior, these semiconductor devices can overheat and go into thermal runaway. The RTS is designed to protect against such overheating by reliably interrupting the circuit precisely […]
Chip fuse protects against overcurrent and excessive ambient temperatures
The USN 1206 fuse is designed to meet the challenges associated with packing density in power electronics. The new chip fuse offers temperature-sensitivity suitable for both overcurrent protection and protection against excessive ambient temperatures. The USN 1206 is not a pure thermal fuse, per se. It requires a current flow to blow, thus providing protection […]
IEC appliance outlet includes integrated guides for light pipes
A new IEC appliance outlet, dubbed the series 6610-5, contains integrated guides for light pipes. Designed by Schurter Inc. to channel light from LEDs placed on a printed circuit board to the outlet surface, the new feature is especially suited for use in PDU and UPS applications. The light pipe status indication allows technicians to […]
SMD fuses guard against excessive ambient temperatures
A new chip fuse offers temperature-sensitivity suitable for both over-current protection and protection against excessive ambient temperatures. The USN 1206 from Schurter is not a pure thermal fuse, per se. It requires a current flow to blow, thus providing protection against over-current, just as well as any conventional fuse. In addition, it is also designed […]
Fast-acting SMD fuses cover 5 to 15 A at 125 V ac/dc
SCHURTER’s new High Current Fuse, HCF, is an extremely robust SMD fuse, designed using solid state, thin film technology. With its fast reacting breaking capacity rated 1000 A at 125 VAC/ 125 VDC, over a current range of 5 A to 15A, the HCF is especially suited for use in particularly harsh applications, where the […]
Polarized IEC appliance inlets now shipping from sager electronics
Sager Electronics, a leading North American distributor of Interconnect, Power and Electromechanical components, is now stocking Schurter’s Polarized IEC Appliance Inlets for Protection Class II. The 2577 and 2579 series are designed to polarize the line contact of the power mains into the appliance. The polarized inlets are popularly used in portable audio devices, cable […]
Surface-mount fuses get up to 30-A ratings
SCHURTER’s UMT-H offers a 1500 A breaking capacity at rated voltages of 277 VAC/250 VDC. The compact, high-performance fuse now has VDE approval in addition to UL approval. This time-lag fuse provides overcurrent and short circuit protection in various industrial control applications, such as intrinsically safe applications. The “intrinsic safety” method is one of the most […]
