4799: IEC Connector C19 for Cable Mounting with V-Lock

  • IEC 60320 Connector, C19 IEC 16 A, UL 20 A
  • V-Lock Cord Retention
  • Ideal for Power Cable Production in Small Volumes or Maintenance Work
Schurter 4799 Pic

The 4799 rewireable IEC connector from Schurter is the first of its kind: it combines a rewireable C19 connector with the proven V-Lock cord retention system.

Fast reaction time is an important factor in opening a new market for a device. Rewirable connectors are particularly flexible and especially suitable for small series of mains cables to enable exactly this. These connectors give you the freedom to choose the right cable with a country-specific plug.

Applications for a Safe Connection (V-Lock)
With electrical appliances that are moved or vibrate during operation, there is a risk of the power cable being unintentionally pulled out of the appliance, resulting in a power failure. Therefore, cord retention systems such as the one on the 4799 are a cost-effective solution to a potentially expensive problem. Cord retention systems are typically required for applications in the field of medical analysis, diagnostic or laboratory equipment, portable instruments, professional audio/video applications or equipment in the food industry.

Halogen-Free Design
Type 4799 from Schurter does not use halogens for the bushing or any other plastic components.

Approvals and Certifications
The 4799 connector has all approvals for the European, Chinese and North American markets. It is certified in accordance with the IEC/UL/CCC 60320 standard.

Finder 68 Series Pic 100a
Finder 68 Series Pic1

Thanks to its specific design and technical characteristics, the new Finder 68 Series power relay achieves the switching of exceptionally high loads, making it perfect in the context of energy production and distribution and in particular for the world’s demand for green sustainable mobility (EV-charging).

It can be used in charging stations up to 55 kW, in the production of inverters, battery chargers, emergency power generators, as well as in many other renewable energy applications.

It can also be installed in uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), in pump control panels and inside automation control panels such as for the control of heavy-duty elevators.

Suitable for mounting and connecting via a printed circuit board, thanks to its 2 NO 100 A rated contacts, the Type 68.22 can achieve the full switching of a three-phase + neutral load up to 100 A by utilizing JUST 2 relays in tandem – saving considerable PCB real estate in comparison to earlier technologies.

Function & Features:

The 68 Series power relay was designed through a careful analysis of the specific areas of application and demands of the market, combined with Finder’s know-how in the design and construction of relays.

The new 68 Series is totally MADE IN ITALY and boasts low coil consumption, a holding power of only 0.7 W, compact size and a modern design – the result of collaboration with the Milanese design studio Fossati | Minelli.

With a distance between open contacts of 3.6 mm it complies with VDE 0126-1-1 and EN 62109-1 standards, as well as meeting the requirements of EN 60335-1 relating to heat and fire resistance (GWIT 775 ° C and GWFI 850 ° C).

  • 2 NO 100 A Contacts
  • Available with 12 and 24 VDC Coil Voltages
  • Maximum Switching Voltage 400/690 V AC
  • Rated load AC1 40000 VA
  • Creepage and Clearance Distance – 8 mm
  • Contact Material AgSnO2
  • Ambient Temperature Range -40… + 85 ° C

Applications:

  • Power Generators
  • Back-up Generators
  • Pump Control
  • Disabled Lift
  • Inverter
  • Charging Stations

Schurter DKCV-1 Current-Compensated Chokes

DKCV-1 Current-Compensated Chokes for Vertical PCB Mounting

  • Very high inductance
  • Compact design with a small footprint
  • Open structure for optimized cooling
  • Optional customer-specific versions
Schurter Dkcv 1 Pic

Schurter is launching a new, vertically mountable choke family for PCBs with very high inductances. The DKCV-1 current-compensated chokes are designed for currents from 0.5 to 10 A. Thanks to their nanocrystalline cores, the new chokes have very high inductances with particularly compact dimensions.

Powerful applications in the energy sector are becoming increasingly compact. This compact design combined with high energy efficiency leads to an increase in electromagnetic interference in modern electronic devices. Powerful filter elements are required to suppress this interference. Due to the compact dimensions, the integration of the filter elements on printed circuit boards is an ideal solution. The new DKCV-1 choke series is particularly suitable for applications that require high attenuation.

High Performance in a Compact Design
The nanocrystalline cores enable very high currents with extremely compact dimensions. Thanks to the vertical choke arrangement, they also require very little space on the PCB. All variants of the DKCV-1 family have the same footprint on the PCB.

Applications
The new chokes are ideal for demanding applications that require high inductance with compact dimensions. These include switching power supplies, industrial, medical, laboratory and test equipment. The chokes are suitable for currents up to 10 A and voltages up to 300 VAC or 450 VDC and have ENEC,
cUR and UR approvals. For higher power applications, the DKIV-1 series of chokes is available with rated currents up to 50A.
