Filtered entry module meets EMC needs
Schurter has extended its ECO filtered power entry module for DC applications, series 5003, with a newly added PCB mount version, and version with flexible wires to provide easy installation, cost savings and maximum performance in a lightweight and environmentally friendly compact package. Traditional applications are in data critical environments such as IT, telecom and data encryption, but Schurter sees a major role for the modules in DC supplied industrial automation.
The 5003 features a standard DC connector, offered in two different connector styles. The connector is encased with a single-stage filter for currents up to 15A at 125V DC. The unit mounts to the equipment enclosure with a broad metal flange, thus providing a large contact area for optimal shielding and filter efficiency. The PCB mounting style version is available with optional snap feet to safely fasten the 5003 on the printed circuit board. The flexible wire leads allow an easy, fast and cost saving installation. Screw-on, snap-in and rivet mounting options are offered. The rear mount type with pre-threaded holes, as well as the snap-in, are designed specifically to reduce assembly time and save labour costs. The series is ENEC and cURus approved.
