IP54 power entry modules for food industry applications
For power entry in the food processing industry where equipment is subject to cleaning and disinfecting, and where conventional connectors could be compromised, Schurter has launched new versions of its DG11 and DG12 power entry modules that achieve an IP54 protection value in the plugged-in state in accordance with IEC 60529.
The existing variants of DG11 and DG12 were designed exclusively as 3-pole versions for protection class I applications. There are now 2-pole variants which explicitly meet the higher requirements of protection class II. Of course, this also applies to the associated V-Lock mains connection cable for cord retention.
The appliance inlet as well as the connector of the V-Lock power cord have been equipped with special sealing elements to achieve this really high IP protection.
In response to multiple customer requests, SCHURTER now offers the two power entry modules DG11 and DG12 in white as well as the most commonly used black.
