Power connector now mates with V-Lock cord sets
Suitable for use in medical devices, IT and audio equipment used on stage, the KEA series power connector from Schurter has been enhanced so that it now mates with V-Lock cord sets. With 1- or 2-pole fuseholder, the compact power entry module's V-Lock compatible feature prevents unintended disconnection of the power from the equipment.
Suitable for applications where the power to the equipment must withstand mechanical stress on the cord, the KEA series connector does not require additional costly hardware to install the cord retaining system (unlike wire bail or clamp accessories). The cordset safely latches into a notch in the plastic housing of the KEA. Removing the cordset is easy, simply depress the latch.
The V-Lock power cords are offered in a wide range of cord lengths and country-specific plugs, including NEMA 5-15 standard hospital grade versions. The connector is rated for 10A at 250V AC and features approvals including UL, CSA, VDE and CCC. Additionally, the KEA series provides a C14 inlet, a 1- or 2-pole fuseholder for 5x20mm fuses, 4.8x0.8mm quick-connect or PCB terminals and screw-on or snap-in mounting. An optional voltage selector allows for use in international markets.
