10 A power-entry modules

10 June 2009 Power Electronics / Power Management

Tyco Electronics has announced the addition of a 10 amp version of its Corcom GG series general-purpose and HG series medical filtered power-entry modules. A 127 mm wire lead option has also been introduced for the HG medical modules to aid in module installation. Previously, the lines were offered in ratings of 1, 3 and 6 amps.

The GG series of power entry modules combine the functions of a general-purpose RFI filter with an IEC power cord connector and single or dual metric fuse holder. The HG series is the medical version of the GG series with reduced line-to-ground capacitance to meet UL 2601 patient care requirements.

The GG and HG series are available with current ratings up to 10 A at 250 V a.c., 50/60 Hz. With the addition of the lead wire option to the HG series, both the GG and HG are available with either industry-standard 6,35 mm tab terminals or 5-inch lead wires for load-side terminations.

These modules are UL recognised, CSA certified and VDE approved. Both GG and HG series power-entry modules find wide use in communications, computer and consumer electronics, industrial, commercial, instrumentation and medical equipment.
