SCHURTER extends current range of its high-performance SMD fuse
SCHURTER expands the rated current range of its UMT-H Universal Modular fuse to 12.5 A and 16 A. With its square, compact design of 5.3 x 16 mm, the UMT-H is the space-saving alternative to classic cylindrically shaped cartridge fuses (e.g.5 x 20 mm). It is well suited for automated assembly. The smaller footprint saves valuable board space, allowing…
SCHURTER announces VDE and UL approvals for new SMD fuse
SCHURTER offers a new Universal Modular fuse, UMT-H, with a 1500 A breaking capacity at rated voltages of 277 VAC and 250 VDC. The compact, high performance fuse now has VDE approval in addition to UL approval. This time-lag fuse provides over-current and short circuit protection in various industrial control applications, including intrinsically safe applications. The…
Schurter T12-MSM circuit breaker comes with design appeal
Schurter announces the T12-MSM, a combination of a reliable circuit breaker and a robust metal switch. With its actuating appeal, the T12-MSM, unlike a typical switch, can be stylishly displayed on the front of the system as opposed to being hidden in the back. Schurter combines its circuit breakers, with thermal operation (T12) and thermal-magnetic…
SCHURTER introduces high-performance compact fuse for 3-phase systems
SCHURTER recently announced its new series SHF 6.3×32 compact fuse, which provides overcurrent protection up to 500 VAC.

The compact size of the fuse, combined with its high ratings and performance, makes…
SCHURTER’s UMT-H now has rated currents up to 10A
SCHURTER has added thirteen rated currents to its UMT-H series of SMD fuses. The expanded series now offers a total of nineteen current ratings from 160 mA to 10A at voltages up to 277 VAC and 250 VDC. The UMT-H SMD fuse with time-lag characteristic provides reliable overcurrent protection, while protecting against short circuits up…
Schurter compact power connector is now V-Lock compatible
Schurter says its compact KEA series power entry module, with 1 or 2-pole fuseholder, now mates with V-Lock cord sets. The KEA’s new V-Lock compatible feature prevents unintended disconnection of the power from the equipment. Unlike wire bail or clamp accessories, no additional costly hardware is necessary to install the cord retaining system. The cord…
Power entry module offers new seal kit
New seal kit provides added ingress protection when cord connector is plugged in SCHURTER now offers added seal protection to its 5707 series power entry module. The seal kit provides an IP54 rating between the inlet and cord connector, preventing dust or splashing water from entering between them, when the equipment is plugged in. The…
EMC filters for high power inverters rid noise on ac and dc lines
New compact 3-Phase ac line filter complements dc filter SCHURTER has added the FMCC SOL to its filter line up. It is intended for high attenuation of electromagnetic interference in 3-phase systems. Rated currents range from 150 to 2500 A at 520 or 760 V. The filter is considerably compact, and lightweight, relative to its…
New UMT fuse boasts 1,500A breaking capacity
Smaller alternative to 5×20 mm cartridge fuse SCHURTER is extending its family of Universal Modular Fuses to include a version with 1500 A breaking capacity at rated voltages of 277 Vac or 250 Vdc. The high breaking capacity of the UMT-H makes this time-lag fuse ideal for applications with high short-circuit currents. The UMT-H at…
Heavy-duty fuse clip for high voltage fuses
A provider of fuse holders is expanding its range to include a fuse clip for heavy-duty performance. The CSO fuse clip for 10.3 x 38 mm or 10.3 x 85 mm fuses, is suitable for applications with voltages up to 1,500 Vac and Vdc, and currents to 32A. The fuse clip’s characteristics meets or exceeds…
