Fuses

When you need to protect electronic equipment from power spikes, you need a reliable fuse. Schurter is proud to be able to offer a comprehensive range of fuses available in resettable and non-resettable versions. Needless to say, all of our fuses meet the most stringent international safety standards. Our resettable fuses offer protection of low voltage DC circuits, limiting fault current to an acceptable level. Non-resettable fuses provide low voltage primary and secondary protection. We also have Telecom fuses for secondary protection in telecommunications equipment, Varistors for primary and secondary protection of AC and DC applications, and fuseholders for holding cartridge fuses, sub-miniature fuses, and miniature fuses.

Circuit Breakers

Schurter's range of circuit breakers are ideal for protecting appliances from overcurrent or undervoltage. Our thermal circuit breakers are available in one, two and three pole varieties with different actuation and mounting formats. We also have thermal-magnetic circuit breakers available in one, two, three and four pole types. These have lever actuation for various mounting styles. Also available are Schurter's Undervoltage Protection units for currents ranging from 2.5 Amps to 20 Amps, as well as Power Entry Modules with integrated circuits breakers - These are typically used for screw-in, snap-in and PCB mounting.

Switches

Our range of input systems includes touch panels and touch screens, metal and membrane keypads and cabinet & control systems. We also supply a huge range of electromechanic and electronics switches. Our printmount switches for Printed Circuit Board mounting are available in a variety of designs, either as a through-hole or SMD assembly, with a Gullwing or J connection. Frontpanel switches have a range of switching functions, can have a number of poles, and come in a range of colours and illumination. For more information on our switches, touchscreens, sensor keypads and metal line keypads, please visit our website.

EMC Products

Schurter offers a wide variety of standard products ensuring electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). We have single phase and three phase line filters with or without IEC power entry module, pulse transformers, chokes and driver modules. Single phase block EMI filters have a current range of 0.5 Amps to 36 Amps and are ideal for chassis or PCB mounting. Three phases block EMI filters have a current range of 3 Amps to 115 Amps at 275, 480 and 520 Volts. Our suppression chokes can be magnetically compensated, linear, or storage type, and are available with a current rating ranging from 0.4 Amps to 50 Amps.

New Products - Switches

We are constantly increasing our product ranges in every department so that our customers can find exactly what they are looking for. To our already large portfolio of input systems, we have recently added the following products: MSM metal switches with colour-anodized aluminium housing, Piezo Switches with ATEX approval (these can be used in explosive applications), Robust GFG Touch Screens, metal switches with ceramic surfaces for high resistance to destructive elements, Piezo Keypads for extreme environments, multifinger touch screens, and latch action switches with improved, attractive design. We continually strive to add the most innovative products to our range, so watch this space!
