PCB CONNECTION - COMPACT & PLUGGABLE

Compact like a terminal, but pluggable. Pluggable PCB terminals are used especially in building technology as well as in air conditioning systems. Their compact design offers the additional advantage of pluggability.

With pluggable PCB terminals, the device is easier to service during wiring and device replacement.

Products are also available as a snap-in version for wall-mounted housings. Their small size makes these connectors particularly suitable for integration in the housing area.

Safe Tripping of Particularly High Currents in the SELV Range
• Very high breaking capacity of up to 2'000A
• Safe tripping in 10s at twice the rated current
• Particularly compact dimensions
• Operating temperature range from -55°C to 125°C

Even in the SELV range, the range of safety extra-low voltage that is harmless to people even when touched, enormously high currents can flow in the event of a short circuit. Schurter responds to this danger with the new, particularly compact SMT fuse UHS.

SELV stands for "Safety Extra Low Voltage". The term sounds self-explanatory and harmless. However, especially with the availability of inexpensive and yet very powerful lithium-ion battery cells, the need to be able to switch off ever higher currents in a controlled manner on inexpensive SMT circuit boards is
increasing.

The SMT fuse Schurter UHS with rated currents of 50 to 100A, which was specially developed for these cases, ideally meets the requirements for a high and fast breaking capacity in case of massive overcurrent. The immense energies stored in lithium-ion battery cells can be galvanically isolated in a controlled manner.

Compact and Powerful
Space is a scarce commodity on modern printed circuit boards. This makes the minimal "footprint" occupied by the UHS all the more significant. Nevertheless, it manages to disconnect the circuit at twice the rated current within just 10 seconds and thus ensures that the PCB can be constructed in a spacesaving and economical manner.

Danger: Short Circuit
Lithium-ion battery cells can store very high amounts of energy and release it again within a very short time - for example in the event of a short circuit. The UHS has an enormously robust design. Its breaking capacity at 50VDC is 600A, and lower voltages up to 16VDC even allow 2'000A.

Wide Range of Applications
The UHS is designed to operate at ambient temperatures from -55°C to +125°C. This makes it ideal for applications in the automotive sector. However, other applications with potentially very high overcurrent (telecom, data center or power tools) are also perfectly suited.

An Optimised Unit for Demanding Requirements
• Designed and optimised for Avionics applications
• FRM-A: Ultra-compact, light and made for harsh environmental conditions
• DRM-A: Whisker-free ceramic fuse with fast tripping characteristics

Very small, light and robust: These are increasingly important requirements of the Avionics industry for the components of their suppliers. Schurter addresses this need with the FRM-A and DRM-A fuse holder/fuse combination.

Minimized dimensions and low weight of Avionics components, their reliability and efficient maintainability are elementary requirements to keep operating costs low. The pressure to reduce the carbon footprint and operate sustainable aircraft fleets is driving the industry. Schurter addresses this need with the most compact and robust Avionics qualified fuse holder on the market, the FRM-A, and the matching SMT fuse DRM-A with a fast-tripping characteristic.

FRM-A: Ultra-Compact and Powerful
It is particularly the modest dimensions that make the Schurter FRM-A closed fuse holder a great one. Not only is it the most compact in its class, but it also shines with its enormous robustness and IP67 protection. Successful vibration, shock and salt mist tests confirm this in an impressive manner. The FRM-A has been developed exclusively for the SMT ceramic fuse DRM-A

DRM-A: Using Gold Against Whisker
Tin whiskers represent a risk for short circuits in electronics. The underlying physical process has not yet been fully identified. However, the problem has always been circumvented by adding lead. But lead is often an undesirable element (RoHS guidelines). The DRM-A therefore completely dispenses with a
lead-containing coating and relies on gold in its place. Gold-plated end caps offer no surface for whiskers to attack. The DRM-A, which was developed specifically for Avionics applications, is suitable wherever the highest demands are made on reliability and robustness. But this does not necessarily have to be at an altitude of 50,000 feet and installed in the FRM-A. Thanks to its design, it is also ideally suited for industrial and telecom applications.
