Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With the product type 6080 and the associated V-Lock power cable, SCHURTER is launching an IP54 device connection that also meets high demands.

SCHURTERS RTS thermal fuse, successfully launched in 2018, gets a new variant with a tripping temperature of >175°C

Conventional switches inevitably require mounting holes in the user interface. Not so with the new SCHURTER CHS. With the ability to be mounted behind the surface of non-conductive materials means the CHS is therefore invisible.

With the electrification of the automotive industry, the ambition quickly arose to transfer this to aviation to the same extent. Hydraulic systems give way to electric ones. The system's supply voltage increases to allow for greater ranges thanks to reduced mass.

Optical bonding enables the connection of touch sensor, cover glass and display into one unit by means of different technologies and processes. Just as with optical bonding of TFT LC displays, this finishing process can also be applied to e-paper displays.

SCHURTER has announced that it now offers its customers complete HMI solutions with the right display to meet all desired requirements. With the company’s knowledge and extensive sourcing channels, it has selected the optimal display for the customer's application.

Touch panel products for the European market must comply with European directives and be CE certified. An essential requirement is that these products meet the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). But which are these?

Piezoelectric switches are particularly tough. They are hermetically sealed and have no mechanical switching contacts. The production site of the SCHURTER PSE EX has just been re-certified according to ATEX/IECEx. The switches of the SCHURTER PSE EX family feature aluminium or stainless-steel housings.

SCHURTER has completed its portfolio of ultra-compact single-phase filters with a new generation of particularly high-performance thanks to a double stage filter design. FMBB EP is the name of the latest member in the completely closed steel housing.

The threat of the COVID-19 is forcing us all to take far-reaching measures to reduce health risks as much as is possible. Many SCHURTER customers have questions about the hygiene of control panels. Are these applications hygienic enough? SCHURTER offers the possibility to control without touching.

SCHURTER has taken the facts of the COVID-19 pandemic into account and has prioritised and ramped up the production of its components and input systems, which are used in medical devices.

After almost 35 years success in leading positions including CEO of the family business, Hans-Rudolf Schurter is retiring. The reason for this is not due to a lack of enthusiasm for his duties, but to the company's Articles of Association.

The British power cord and cable assembly solutions specialist Volex and SCHURTER Group have a long standing and successful partnership. This partnership has now been taken to a new level in a ‘License and Distribution Contract’.

  In the process of global harmonisation, the US and Canada will adopt the IEC 60320 standard for device plugs with minor deviations.

Resistive touchscreens have been frequently used in industrial and medical environments for nearly 30 years. The resistive technology is a proven, reliable and mature technique with features such as robustness, EMC conformity, closed front without dirty edges, IP67, available in diagonals up to 24".

Indicators for the operating status of electrical equipment generate heat during operation. Wasted energy, which also promotes the ageing of surrounding components. But that does not have to be the case. A new technology reduces the power loss by up to 2,000%.

FMAD NEO is the name of the latest single-stage filter family for three-phase systems with a neutral line. Especially compact with high performance, the new filter series is suited for use in today's more portable industrial machines, designed to occupy less floor space in manufacturing plants. A wide temperature range extends its capabilities for use in many critical applications.

SCHURTER extends its successful family of chassis mounted filters for 1-phase systems, FMAB NEO with the new series FMAB HV. It is suitable for applications up to 277VAC as well as 400VDC. In North America, there are various 1-phase applications in the 3-phase 480/277VAC network. 400VDC is often used in modern data centres with DC power supply. The single-stage filter series combines a compact design with a high level of performance.

  SCHURTER has successfully passed the initial certification for the medical standard according to DIN EN ISO 13485 as well as the occupational health and safety standard according to DIN ISO 45001. The certification audits for the two standards took place in April 2019 and were successfully passed following a well-prepared and organised process.

Proven test circuit boards are being offered by SCHURTER for the DKIH-1 and DKIH-3 high-current chokes. With these, an EMI filter circuit for one or three phase systems can be set up and tested easily and quickly in an iterative process without having to make any adjustments to the layout of your own PCB.
