DKCV-1 Current-Compensated Chokes for Vertical PCB Mounting
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.

Cynergy3 has both flowmeters and flow switches amongst its range of measuring instruments.
Cynergy3 manufacture flowmeters and flow switches that can accurately measure liquid volumes ensuring correct dispensing in a wide range of industrial applications. Our ultrasonic flowmeters can be specified to have a range of outputs and are commonly used in hot or cold beverage dispensing providing reliable, safe, consistent results for customers. The flow switch acts on demand to start or stop the flow of liquid avoiding over or under filling.
Coolant flow is another important application where monitoring flow is necessary to keep cooling systems working effectively. Our flow switches can be programmed to automatically manage flow, activating or deactivating pumps as needed to keep flow within the recommended parameters.

Ideally suited to protect against overcurrent and short circuit of equipment in telecommunications, process control and other industrial applications where sophisticated equipment requires a high precision performance.
A latching type bimetal is combined with a magnetic coil to ensure protection and genuine physical contact isolation. This provides the joint benefits of delayed operation for low level overcurrent protection and fast magnetic action of higher value short circuits, disconnecting the faulty circuit within milliseconds.
