Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With the product type DG11 and DG12 and the associated V-Lock power cable, SCHURTER introduces an IP54 device connection that meets very high requirements.
The SCHURTER products DG11 and DG12 have been upgraded for an IEC 60320 and IEC 60529 compatible device connection. In combination with the special power cord, an IP54 degree of protection is achieved when the device is connected. An IP54 connection offers excellent protection against dust particles and is splash-proof.
Special sealing elements
The blue colour of the V-Lock cable sleeve already indicates that something is different here. Both the device input and the power cord connection are equipped with special sealing elements to achieve higher IP protection.
V-Lock cord attachment
The new appliance plug also features the industry-proven V-Lock cord fastening system. Mechanical safety clamps, which often have to be designed for specific types, are no longer necessary.
Areas of application
Wherever dirt, dust particles or splash water can occur, the new SCHURTER technology is the perfect choice. This can be the case in harsh working environments in industry. In the medical sector, a higher IP protection rating is mandatory. This is simply due to the need to regularly clean and disinfect medical equipment, and even sterilize it if necessary. The food processing industry has similar requirements.
IP54 range planning
immediately available are types 6080, DG11, DG12 and other products will follow soon. SCHURTER will equip a complete family of device connections with this innovative technology.
