This connector system outside fixed installations enables equipment like luminaires in furniture and shelving to be connected securely and flexibly in an extremely easy and minimalistic manner.

The gesis® MICRO connector system impresses with its round shape and small diameter of just 8 mm. These ideal properties enable the cable assemblies to be laid and installed easily and unobtrusively.

The 2-pole and 3-pole connector system (GST08i2 / GST08i3) can be guided through drilled holes with a diameter of 8 mm with ease, without the need for special tools.

Given that gesis® MICRO is optimally matched to the entire gesis family, this enables a completely integrated system.

Schurter 5180 Series Appliance Inlet Filter IP67

Schurter 5180

Appliance inlet filter with high protection against dust and water

  • IP67 towards the housing
  • IP54 for the corded connection
  • Filter version with high attenuation
  • V-Lock cord retention

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.
