It is predicted that more than two-thirds of the global population will live in cities by 2050. Buildings will therefore play an essential role in how people will experience this growing urbanization. This comes along with an energy consumption of buildings which is already more than 30% of total energy utilization and continues to rise. Hence, amongst other attributes sustainability and comfort are highly important to the future of building technology. Schaffner delivers a wide range of products and solutions to contribute to more sustainable and energy-efficient buildings and infrastructure.

Schaffner Delivers Solutions for Energy Efficiency in Building Technology:

The quality of power supply in a building is a key factor for its efficient operation. Harmonic disturbances are a common issue in buildings, which can be mitigated, not only to fulfill standards, but also to unburden the interconnected equipment, thereby increasing their lifecycle and improving energy efficiency.

Schaffner's expertise and broad product portfolio in applications such as HVAC, lighting and elevators enables truly sustainable and energy-efficient buildings.

HVAC:
Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning are responsible for a high proportion of energy consumption in modern buildings. Variable frequency drives are widely used in HVAC applications, where energy efficiency can be substantially improved by mitigating harmonic current present in the energy flow.

Elevator & Escalator:
Elevators and escalators help to make urban spaces more efficient. Especially in large commercial buildings, elevators and escalators bring people from A to B much faster, easier, and more safely. By applying modern drive technology, elevator motors run as generators during braking and feed energy back into the network or accumulator for later use.

Lighting:
Energy saving lighting systems, such as LEDs together with dimmers and timers, are widely promoted and fitted in modern buildings. They do not only provide a wide range of design and application opportunities. By allowing a dedicated smart light management they also contribute to reduced energy consumption.

IP54 in Plugged State with the Dedicated Power Cord
• Very high protection against dust and moisture
• V-Lock Cord Retention
• IEC 60320 and IEC 60529 compatible connection

Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With the product type DG11 and DG12 and the associated V-Lock power cable, Schurter is launching an IP54 device connection that also meets very high demands.

The Schurter Products DG11 and DG12 have been upgraded for an IEC 60320 and IEC 60529 compatible appliance inlet. In combination with the dedicated power cord, an IP54 protection rating is achieved when plugged in. An IP54 connection provides excellent protection against dust particles and is splash-proof.

Special Sealing Elements
The blue color of the V-Lock cable socket already indicates that something is different here. The
appliance inlet as well as the connector of the power cord have been equipped with special sealing elements to achieve a higher IP-Protection.

V-Lock Cord Retention
The new device plug connection also has the industry proofed V-Lock cord retention system. Mechanical safety clips, which often must be designed for specific types, are no longer a necessity.

Application Areas
Wherever dirt, dust particles or splash water may occur, the new Schurter technology is the perfect choice. This may be the case in harsh working environments in industry. In the medical field, a higher IP protection rating is mandatory. This is simply due to the necessity of cleaning and disinfecting medical equipment on a regular basis, and even sterilizing it if required. The food processing industry has very similar requirements.

IP54 Family in Planning
Available today are the Types 6080, DG11, DG12 and further products will soon follow. Schurter will equip a complete family of device connections with this innovative technology.
