EDC: Safe Switching of Direct Current

  • Uniquely compact design – ideal
    for mobile applications
  • Extremely durable (over 1 million
    switching cycles)
  • Available in 2 versions (universal
    and Schurter specific)
  • Rated current 10 A at 48 VDC

The Schurter EDC (Electronic Direct Current) switch was specifically engineered for the reliable switching of direct current in compact systems. It combines the mechanical precision of a microswitch with integrated power electronics.

The result of Schurter's new development: completely arc-free. Arcing is one of the greatest safety risks when switching direct current. The use of modern semiconductors completely eliminates arcing.

With the well-known feel of mechanical switches, the load current is switched electronically without galvanic isolation. This protects both the system and the environment from damage caused by sparking or EMC interference.

Long-Lasting and Reliable
At the same time, the EDC achieves well over a million switching cycles, as there is no arc-related erosion of the contacts. This extends the service life and reduces maintenance costs.

Ultra-Compact Design
Thanks to its compact design, the switch can also be integrated in confined installation situations. This is ideal for onboard systems in electromobility, compact power distribution systems in the aerospace industry or mobile robot solutions. The EDC also scores highly in industrial control systems with battery buffered DC supply thanks to its high level of safety, energy efficiency and ease of installation.

2 Variants
The new Schurter EDC is available in two versions. Firstly, as a stand-alone version (EDC 02) for universal actuators, and secondly as a Schurter-specific version for the MSM II switch as an actuator (EDC 01). Both versions are designed for a rated current of 10 A at 48 VDC.

Robust and Future-Proof
With the EDC switch, Schurter addresses the growing demands for safety, miniaturization and eliability in modern DC applications – a robust solution for future-proof designs.
