SCHURTER is expanding its extensive range of surface mount chip fuses with a unique model: the new 50 mA fuse in the USFF family clearly sets itself apart from standard commercial products through a lower voltage loss and an exact opening time. The USFF 1206 thus offers the safe solution for the optimal operation of sensitive electronic systems where such performance is critical.

With the new 50 mA version of the USFF 1206, SCHURTER is offering a true market innovation. The surface mount chip fuse sets itself apart from standard commercial products through a lower voltage loss and an exact opening time. The wire-bonding technology used in the USFF 1206 allows stable, reliable operation at ambient temperatures from -55°C to 90°C, making it ideal for protection of applications such as in sensors, ICs, and batteries. The new fuse is particularly well suited for the protection of smart metering systems. The USFF 1206 has cURus certification, is halogen-free and conforms to RoHS. With these characteristics, the USFF 1206 fuse is also an excellent choice for lead-free systems.

SCHURTER now offers its popular TA35 thermal circuit breaker with a new antibacterial protective cover. This allows the TA35 to be used in applications designed to thwart the spread of bacteria, such as equipment used in medical and laboratory facilities, as well as food production plants.

The antibacterial effectiveness of the cover has been tested and confirmed according to ISO 22196, particularly the protection against the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria strains. Additionally, the silver ions contained in the protective cover prevent the growth of numerous other organisms.

The circuit breaker combined with the antibacterial cover is ideal for use in equipment where hygiene plays an important role, including equipment subjected to rigorous wash downs. The transparent antibacterial cover on the TA35 carries an IP65 rating to protect against the ingress of water and dust. It also withstands the use of common cleaning agents and disinfectants.

The circuit breaker with thermal overcurrent protection is used all over the world in applications requiring a high degree of safety and reliability. It is available in 1-pole, 2-pole and 3-pole versions and can be configured according to customer specific requirements. Six colors and a range of legends or customer-specific symbols can be selected for the illuminated or non-illuminated rocker switch. The switches are designed for efficient snap-in mounting in panel thicknesses from 1 to 4 mm and are equipped with 6.3 x 0.8 mm terminals.

When it comes to household appliances used in unattended operation, the provisions of standard IEC 60335-1 have in the past few years placed higher requirements regarding glow-wire ignition temperature (GWIT). These more stringent requirements thus also apply to installed components such as power sockets, fuse holders and connectors. For this reason, all components carrying current must meet the requirements of glow-wire tests as specified in IEC 60695-2-12 and -13.

As a leading producer of fuse holders and power sockets, SCHURTER manufacturers a large number of products made of plastic materials with high glow-wire ratings. These are above all shock-safe fuse holders in the successful FPG series, which are available in a wide range of shapes and sizes as well as fuse blocks for assembly on circuit boards. Power connectors rated for 10 A and 16 A, including with a wide range of assembly types and various terminals, also meet these stricter requirements.

SCHURTER thus fulfills and exceeds the strict guidelines concerning fire prevention for electrical devices that are operated in households unattended. Which appliances are considered to fall under the «unattended» category and thus need components of this glow-wire category is defined in standard IEC 60335-2. Examples of such appliance types are dishwashers, coffee machines, washing machines and kitchen stoves.

With the SHT 6.3×32, SCHURTER is expanding its range of high-voltage equipment fuses. The high breaking capacity of 1500 A at rated voltage opens up many interesting application possibilities. The SHT 6.3×32 is available as a fuse link or pigtail version. Both models protect personnel and electronic systems from overcurrent and potential fires resulting from catastrophic short circuit events.

SCHURTER is initially offering the SHT 6.3×32 in ten rated currents from 1 to 8 A. The fuse stands out due to its high breaking capacity of 1500 A at a voltage rating of 500 VAC. Besides a wide range of applications in the energy and industrial sectors, the SHT 6.3×32 is especially well suited for the protection of 3-phase systems.

SCHURTER offers the SHT 6.3×32 as a fuse link or a version with pigtails. Fuse links can be used in clips and fuse holders, which allows easy replacement of fuses without de-soldering. SCHURTER offers a broad range of such clips and fuse holders suited for use with the SHT 6.3×32. The pigtail version allows direct assembly on printed circuit boards by means of through-hole technology and soldering.

As a fuse that conforms to RoHS, the SHT 6.3×32 can be put to use in lead-free systems. Compatibility with the most important competitive products allows SCHURTER to offer the SHT 6.3×32 as a form, fit and function substitute product. The SHT 6.3×32 fuse is cURus approved.
