Schurter Green Line Products

September 14, 2023

Types: 6100-3, 6100-4, 6102-3, 6102-5, 6600-3, 6600-4

  • High-Quality products made from bio-based plastic
  • up to 68% CO2 reduction
  • IEC 60320 10A/250VAC in-/outlets

Sustainability is no longer a trend, but the order of the day. Wherever we can reduce our carbon footprint, we should do so. For this reason, Schurter introduces the new Green Line products. In a first step, these are high-quality products made from bio-based plastics that are made from plant-based raw materials.

The Schurter products 6100-3, 6100-4, 6102-3, 6102-5, 6600-3 and 6600-4, which are already established on the market, are IEC 60320 compatible appliance connectors which can now also be obtained made of bio-based plastics.

Green Line Products:
"Green Line" is the product collection of Schurter components with the focus on reducing today's CO2 footprint and becoming less dependent on fossil raw materials.

Bio-Based Plastics:
The environmentally friendly alternative to the fossil-based plastics that are widespread today are plastics that are made from plant-based raw materials. Plant based raw materials have a CO2-neutral footprint over the entire life cycle, which leads to a significant reduction in the CO2 emissions and thus of the products. In addition, bio-based plastics often have a lower density than fossil plastics, resulting in lower material consumption.

Green Line Family in Planning:
Further products will soon follow with the already implemented IEC 60320 appliance connectors. Schurter will offer a complete family of products with a significantly reduced carbon footprint.

Schurter Type DG11/DG12 with Cordset

August 17, 2023
Schurter Logo1.jpg

IP54 in Plugged State with the Dedicated Power Cord
• Very high protection against dust and moisture
• V-Lock Cord Retention
• IEC 60320 and IEC 60529 compatible connection

Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With the product type DG11 and DG12 and the associated V-Lock power cable, Schurter is launching an IP54 device connection that also meets very high demands.

The Schurter Products DG11 and DG12 have been upgraded for an IEC 60320 and IEC 60529 compatible appliance inlet. In combination with the dedicated power cord, an IP54 protection rating is achieved when plugged in. An IP54 connection provides excellent protection against dust particles and is splash-proof.

Special Sealing Elements
The blue color of the V-Lock cable socket already indicates that something is different here. The
appliance inlet as well as the connector of the power cord have been equipped with special sealing elements to achieve a higher IP-Protection.

V-Lock Cord Retention
The new device plug connection also has the industry proofed V-Lock cord retention system. Mechanical safety clips, which often must be designed for specific types, are no longer a necessity.

Application Areas
Wherever dirt, dust particles or splash water may occur, the new Schurter technology is the perfect choice. This may be the case in harsh working environments in industry. In the medical field, a higher IP protection rating is mandatory. This is simply due to the necessity of cleaning and disinfecting medical equipment on a regular basis, and even sterilizing it if required. The food processing industry has very similar requirements.

IP54 Family in Planning
Available today are the Types 6080, DG11, DG12 and further products will soon follow. Schurter will equip a complete family of device connections with this innovative technology.
