DD11 and DD21 – New with Rotated Switch
The Schurter DD11 and DD21 power entry modules, which are already used in a variety of applications, are now available in a version with a rotated switch. This meets the specific requirements of medical applications where the switch (rocker) must be rotated by 180°: the switch-on position is at the top and the switch-off position is at the bottom.
With their ultra-compact design, the power entry modules DD11 and DD21 are the ideal choice for low-profile designs. They are all-in-one solutions comprising an IEC C14 connector, a fuse holder and a switch. All the individual components are pre-wired. This significantly reduces assembly time. The compact design and three-in-one functionality allow less space to be used in the equipment. The power entry modules DD11 and DD21 are ideal for applications involving high transient loads.
New with 180° Rotated Switch
Schurter newly offers two different variants with switch-on and -off position rotated by 180°, thus meeting the requirements of many medical electronic applications.
V-Lock Cord Retention
All DD11 and DD21 modules, including these new variants with rotated switch, are equipped with the proven V-Lock cord retention system as standard.
Application Areas
The new variants are suitable for applications according to IEC/UL 62368-1 (Audio/video, information and communication technology equipment), IEC 60601-1 (Medical electrical equipment) and IEC 60335-1 (Electrical appliances for household and similar purposes). They also meet the requirements for appliances in unattended use. This includes the enhanced requirements of glow wire tests acc. to IEC 60695-2-11 or -12 & -13.

DG11 – With Additional Magnetic Release
The Schurter DG11 power entry module, which has been optimized and proven over many years, is now available in a version with an additional magnetic release to protect against very high overcurrent (short circuit).
Circuit breakers are usually designed according to the thermal principle with a bimetal. If a defined temperature is exceeded due to the overcurrent, the circuit is interrupted. Once the bimetal has cooled down, the device is ready for use again. However, this process is very slow. For this reason, thermal circuit breakers are usually combined with a fuse.
New with Additional Magnetic Module
Schurter is upgrading its TA35 2-pole miniature circuit-breakers with an additional, optional magnetic module. From now on, no additional fuse is required for the thermal-magnetic versions. Depending on the application, the magnetic modules are available with both slow and fast characteristics.
V-Lock Cord Retention
The new versions of the DG11 connectors are equipped with the proven V-Lock cord retention protection as standard.
Splash- and Dustproof: IP67
The DG11 power entry module is fitted with special sealing elements (gaskets) to achieve the very high degree of protection IP67.
Application Areas
Wherever dirt, dust particles or water occurs, and the highest safety standards are required, these new Schurter power entry modules are the perfect choice. Typical areas of application are harsh industrial environments or demanding medical applications where cleaning and disinfection as well as maximum protection against overcurrent (short circuit) are required.

The first plant-based Schurter connectors were launched in July last year. Now Schurter is following suit and significantly expanding its portfolio of “Green Line” connectors. Because wherever you can reduce your CO2 footprint without compromising on quality, you really should do so.
As with the launch of the first series of Green Line products, Schurter remains true to its policy of offering a version with plant-based housings for products that are already established on the market. This approach offers customers of these products the great advantage that no redesigns or recertifications are
necessary when replacing the old connectors based on fossil raw materials. The Schurter Green Line is therefore a 1:1 replacement with all certifications.
New to the Green Line
The steadily expanding Schurter Green Line now includes the 4797 appliance outlet, the 4798 and 6080 appliance inlets and the 4782 rewireable connector.
Bio-Based Plastics
The environmentally friendly alternative to the fossil-based plastics commonly used today are plastics made from plant-based raw materials. Plant-based raw materials have a neutral CO2 footprint over their entire life cycle, which leads to a significant reduction in overall CO2 emissions. In addition, bio-based plastics often have a lower density than fossil-based plastics, which leads to lower material consumption.
Quality
In addition to CO₂ reduction, the bioplastic is also impressive in terms of safety and quality. It meets all technical and visual requirements. Products made from bioplastics impress with the same performance and service life as those made from fossil, crude oil-based plastic. Of course with all the international approvals needed.

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.
