Appliance inlet filter with high protection against dust and water
Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With product type 5180 and the associated V-Lock power cord, Schurter is launching an IP54 device connection that meets even the most demanding requirements.
The newly developed Schurter 5180 is a appliance inlet with filter in accordance with IEC 60320 and IEC 60529. Thanks to several seals, the built-in device plug provides IP67 protection for the housing. In combination with the corresponding V-Lock power cord, a protection rating of IP54 is achieved when plugged in. This rating offers excellent protection against dust particles and is splash-proof.
Special Sealing Gaskets
The blue colour of the V-Lock cable socket alone indicates that something is different here. Both the device plug and the power cord have been equipped with special sealing elements to achieve a high IP protection rating. The new blue V-Lock cable ensures reliable pull-out protection and tightness.
Standard and High-Performance Versions
Standard and high-performance versions are available. The latter are equipped with nanocrystalline cores in the chokes.
Green Line
The new 5180 device connector filter is also available in a version made from plant-based plastic. This significantly reduces the component's CO2 emissions.
Application Areas
Wherever dirt, dust particles, or splashing water may occur, the new Schurter technology is the perfect choice. This can be the case in harsh working environments in industry. In the medical field, a higher IP protection class is required. This is because medical devices must be cleaned, disinfected, and even sterilized regularly if necessary. Similar requirements apply in the food industry. Medicine 2 MOPP for applications with direct patient contact and, for example, ambulance vehicles or in the home care sector.
