What is a Power Inlet Module?

A power inlet module is a device that combines multiple functions into a single unit to control power entry. They can provide circuit protection in two main paths: fuses or circuit breakers. Both lower the chances of harming the equipment or causing the end user physical injury. The inlet is the conduit for providing power with a detachable cord set. The most common means of connecting cable to equipment is via the IEC 60320 (C14, C13, etc.). The inlet contains blades for receiving a cord.

high rated currents for highest breaking capacity demands.
Thanks to its design, the fuses tripping time minimizes excessive
temperature dissipation at 2x rated current.

Features:

High breaking capacity up to 2000A
Safe tripping in 10s at twice the rated current
High range of operating temperature
Small component height of 4.7mm

Applications:

Automotive
Telecom equipment
Datacenter appliances
Power tools

Schurter Series: DG11 IEC Appliance Inlet with Circuit Breaker

DG11 IEC Appliance Inlet C14 or C18 with Circuit Breaker TA35 2-pole with Thermal or Thermal-Magnetic Release

The Schurter DG11 is a power entry module designed
for IEC appliance inlets (C14 or C18) combined with
a 2‑pole TA35 circuit breaker offering thermal or
thermal‑magnetic release. It is intended for use in
equipment protected to IEC/UL 62368‑1 and suitable
for protection class I or II devices.

It provides a reliable alternative to traditional
fuse-protected power entries by featuring resettable
overcurrent protection, reducing components, and
removing the need for a separate fuse.

Description:

Panel mount: Screw-on version from front or rear side, snap-in version front side: Appliance Inlet, protection class I or II, Circuit breaker type TA35, 2-pole, with thermal or thermal-magnetic release
Pre-wired coupling
V-Lock notch standard
Quick connect terminal 6.3 x 0.8 mm

Key Features:

With sealing: IP54 under load, IP67 towards housing
Thermal or thermal-magnetic circuit breaker; thermal-magnetic release fast acting or with time lag
Recessed rocker prevents accidental manipulation
Various mounting options

Characteristics:

Connector and circuit breaker are prewired
Circuit Breaker thermal or thermal-magnetic, non-illuminated or illuminated
Suitable for use in equipment according to IEC/UL 62368-1
