5180 IEC Inlet with Filter

The SCHURTER 5180 is an appliance inlet with a 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 also splash-proof.

The blue color 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 blue V-Lock cable ensures reliable pull-out protection and tightness.

Standard and high-performance versions are available. The latter are equipped with nanocrystalline cores in the chokes. The 5180 device connector filter is also available in a version made from plant-based plastic, significantly reducing the component's CO₂ emissions.

Wherever dirt, dust particles, or splashing water may occur, the 5180 is a perfect choice. This can be the case in the harsh working environments of industrial applications. 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.

The 5180 offers medical 2 x MOPP protection for applications with direct patient contact and, for example, in ambulance vehicles or in the home care sector.
