SPICE up your linear choke library
In order to achieve efficient circuit development, a previous simulation is required. However, each simulation is only as good as the model is capable of mapping the reality. Therefore SCHURTER has provided sophisticated simulation models for its entire range of chokes taking into account magnetic saturation.
Schurter strengthens mobile EMC service
As EMC measurement now plays an important role Schurter has completely renewed and strengthened its fleet of mobile EMC measuring laboratories.

Sporty fuseholder adds value for quick assembly
With the FUS fuseholder, SCHURTER is building on its successful FUL series for high-performance applications and presents the first dust and water-proof fuseholder with ingress degree of protection IP67 especially for rough applications. The snap-in fuseholder series guarantees fast and tool-free assembly. The carrier is available in both versions with slot and fingergrip and can accommodate fuse sizes 5 x 20 mm / 6.3 x 32 mm.
Display portfolio expanded for outdoor applications
It has been announced that SCHURTER has expanded its portfolio with TFT displays with screen sizes from 1.2-110", in the common formats 4:3, 5:4 or in modern widescreen formats 8:3, 16:9, 16:10 and with TFT-switching technologies as TN, MVA, IPS, AHVA.
Waterproof coupler with protection degree IP 67 and IP 69K
SCHURTER presents the new waterproof IEC connector consisting of the appliance inlet type 4761 and the rewireable cord connector type 4762. With its high protection class IP 67 or IP 69K connected or unconnected with cover, this appliance coupler is perfect for supplying power to appliances used in harsh environments such as industrial, marine, laboratories or any type of outdoor appliances.
Filtered appliance inlet offers plastic flange
Expanding the existing series, SCHURTER's popular filtered appliance inlet, 5120 series, is now available with a plastic flange. It also features a flat front design, which offers an attractive modern-looking alternative to like products on the market.
Circuit breakers suit vertical PCB mounting
SCHURTER has expanded its T9 fuseholder style circuit breaker series to include a version for vertical PCB mounting. The T9-817 model completes the existing range, which includes a horizontal PCB version, and three different panel mount styles. The full range of mounting styles provides a form and fit alternative to equivalent closed fuseholders.
IEC appliance outlet provides status indication
SCHURTER’s 6610 series appliance outlet according to IEC 60320-2-2, Style F, is now available with an integrated light pipe. The fiberglass light pipe indicates operational status, or other function status, as an optional feature to standard connectors. Designed to channel light from LEDs on the pc board to the front of the connector, the new technology offers flexible design options including the number of light pipes, 1-4, as well as opti...
Pushbutton switches available with new illumination options
The MSM CS and MSM LA CS series metal pushbutton switches from SCHURTER are available in the diameters of 19 and 22mm. The 0.1 and 10A switching function of the MSM CS series is momentary, while the 12A switching function for the MSM LA CS is latching. The scratch resistant ceramics surface is also great for laser lettering.
Compact fuse provides high-voltage overcurrent & short circuit protection
SCHURTER’s SHT 6.3x32 fuse provides higher voltage overcurrent and short circuit protection up to 1500A at 500VAC and 400VDC in a universally accepted compact package size 6.3x32mm. The compact high performance fuse is suited for primary AC circuit protection in 3-phase systems, HVAC systems, lighting and other industrial building and automation systems.
CEE-connector with filter suits 1- & 3-phase applications
With a long history of innovation in the connector and EMC marketplace, SCHURTER expands its range of power entry modules with the introduction of the FMAD and FMAB CEE connectors, featuring a first of its kind integrated line filter for 1- and 3-phase industrial and power distribution applications. The integrated filter optimises suppression of conducted emissions by eliminating cables between the inlet and filter.
Common mode chokes for single- and 3-phase applications
The range of current compensated chokes from Schurter has been expanded with high current types for PCB mounting. The new DKIH series is now available with a nanocrystalline ring core, offering eight times higher inductance performance than ferrite core versions in the same compact dimension.
Filter family extended with P and Q series
The FMAB NEO range of single-phase filters from Schurter has been expanded with new designs. The P and Q series extends the range of current ratings up to 60A, with an extended temperature range from -40°C to 100°C.
Increased fire safety requirements for fuseholders
The fuseholder standard IEC/EN 60127-6 has been revised to improve fire safety.
