Schurter DG11/DG12 with New Options

March 5, 2024

IP54 In Plugged State with the Dedicated Power Cord

  • Very high protection against dust and moisture
  • IEC 60320 and IEC 60529 compatible connection
  • Protection class II version added (IEC 60320 C18/C17)
  • Power entry modules now also available in white

Following the successful launch of the two power entry modules DG11 and DG12 with increased IP protection, Schurter now also offers both models in variants for protection class II applications and in white as well as black.

Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With the DG11 and DG12 product types and the corresponding V-Lock mains cable, Schurter launched an IP54 device connection that was immediately very well accepted. An IP54 value in the plugged-in state in accordance with IEC 60529 offers excellent protection against dust particles and is also splash-proof.

New Variants for Protection Class II
The existing variants of DG11 and DG12 were designed exclusively as 3-pole versions for protection class I applications. There are now 2-pole variants which explicitly meet the higher requirements of protection class II. Of course, this also applies to the associated V-Lock mains connection cable for cord retention.

Special Sealing Elements
The appliance inlet as well as the connector of the V-Lock power cord have been equipped with special sealing elements to achieve this really high IP protection.

Black or White
In response to multiple customer requests, Schurter now offers the two power entry modules DG11 and DG12 in white as well as the most commonly used black.

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.

Hylec Celebrates a Decade of Debox

March 4, 2024

Hylec3

Hylec-APL this year celebrates 10 years since the launch of its innovative Debox cable junction box series.

Now extending to five models, the versatile Debox in-line junction box family’s offer faster, more efficient and therefore cheaper installation through its simple and virtually tool-free use.

Millions of units of Debox have been sold during the decade since its launch, helping electrical installers worldwide save time and money without compromising quality.

The Debox series of innovative cable junction includes the following five models to address different application use cases.

Debox S
Re-imagined and designed to speed up every installation, the original Debox S is a cost-effective, innovative all-in-one cable junction box. Complete with 4-pole 24A UL/VDE-approved terminal block as standard, Debox S conforms to EN60598-1 (GWT 650°C). Pre-fitted with external fixing lugs for fast, easy mounting, Debox S comes complete with everything you need – including in-built cable clamps and locking clip – for rapid, simple and virtually tool-free installation.

Debox SL
Introduced the first ever completely tool-free in-line electrical junction box. Now featuring a new easier-to-use, double lever screwless terminal block, Debox SL offers maintenance-free connections. Its safe, fast and reliable 100% tool-free assembly is supplied complete with 4-pole 16A connector block, capable of accommodating 2, 3 or 4 conductors in round or flat profile cable for lighting circuits or power.

Debox SL2
Is the smallest junction box available with 5 poles. Each individual 32A screwless lever connector can take up to 3 conductors and the box features unique push-fit cable clamps. Debox SL2 saves valuable time and makes installation easier for smaller and larger internal wiring jobs, as everything needed is supplied with the box and there is no need to use a screwdriver to securely join wires or mount the box itself.

Debox SM40
Is the first 4-pole in-line junction box that fits through a 40mm aperture, yet still retains generous cable management space, making Debox SM40 ideal for use in LED lighting applications. As with all Debox junction boxes, Debox SM40 comes ready for use, supplied with everything needed, including the terminal block, making connection simpler and easier. The miniature Debox SM40 is only half the volume of Debox S or SL, making it the most compact 4-pole junction box available.

Debox 11
Is a highly versatile surface-mounted junction box for external weatherproof applications. It comes with 10 soft membrane covered cable entries, providing quick puncture-entry and self-sealing rated to IP66. Eight entries are threaded M20, ideal for cable glands, with no need for an internal locknut, offering even higher protection rating to IP67. Five 3-pole screwless connectors are supplied and the housing is made of flame retardant, impact-resistant polypropylene.

Ergonomic design and convenience for electrical installers are at the heart of the entire Debox range. The design of all models aims to simplify and speed up installation, without compromising quality. All components required are supplied, with no loose screws or parts that can be easily dropped or lost, and installation is virtually tool-free.
