Electrification is a global trend. In hospitals, the number of electronic medical devices is rising constantly. In the field of medical equipment, electromagnetic interference (EMI) between several medical devices may be life threatening. For example, in MRIs, Schaffner filters are used to mitigate EMC noise.
Schaffner's Expertise within the Medical Industry:
Schaffner offers a broad range of components for the medical industry and has consistently extended its proven IEC Inlet family with single- and dual-stage solutions adapted to market needs. Especially when it comes to protecting human life, Schaffner is dedicated to continuously improving state-of-the-art of interference suppression for devices in medical applications.
Medical Equipment:
Durable medical equipment provides freedom, independence, and quality of life not possible without these products. One key trend in the industry is the growth of the aging population requiring access to vital and necessary medical equipment for treatment using X-rays, CTs, and MRIs. Another key trend is the growing interest in wearable and in-home devices. Portable and movable components are becoming popular not only in the field of preventative healthcare and fitness but also in the medical equipment sector as well.
Laboratory & Analyzer Equipment:
The medical laboratory plays an important role in the healthcare system, providing clinical, diagnostic, and research services that contribute to the quality of health care. Medical laboratory equipment is an essential tool in these services, providing accurate and precise results that can improve diagnosis and treatment plans, as well as contributing to advances in health care research and development of new treatments. Laboratory equipment includes medical as well as other equipment such as chemical and biological.

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.
