Advertorials V-Lock – plug-retention safeguard for power cords
The V-Lock system from SCHURTER prevents unintentional unplugging of power cords on equipment. A variety of power sockets, Power Entry Modules (PEMs) and numerous country- specific power cords can be supplied as part of this system, and now also in white. Also available are power cords with V-Lock that conform to the “American Hospital Grade”.
V-Lock guarantees a power cord cannot be pulled out of a piece of equipment. With this system, the power socket is equipped with a pin that interlocks with a special notch in the plug on the power cord. The lock is released by pressing a finger on the disengaging lever. V-Lock is easily identified due to its bright yellow colour, a feature that makes it easy to identify this scheme from conventional power plug/socket systems. The V-Lock locking system can be integrated into power couplings in compliance with IEC 60320 for 10 A and 16 A rated current. Advantage: no clamping system specific to a unit’s power socket or retaining bracket must be adapted and attached.
V-Lock is especially well suited for medical equipment, laboratory and analysis instruments, telecom and IT equipment, power outlet strips or equipment in TV or radio studios. V-Lock is available with black or white cables, plugs and sockets.
For medical equipment, SCHURTER offers Power Entry Modules with a medical filter and fuse holder with increased shock protection. Power cords are also available that meet American Hospital Grade.
Technical features:
- 10 A and 16 A IEC equipment power couplings - Power extension cables - Extraction force at least 200 N
Hot-Swap compact 1U single output AC-DC
power supplies Powersolve’s new GFR1K5 series power supplies are 1U high, AC-DC single output units designed to provide up to 1500W. Operating from a wide 85 to 264VAC input voltage, there are four models in the series providing outputs of 12, 24, 48 or 56VDC, the latter being suitable for PoE applications.
Featuring an impressive power density of 18W/in³ and a typical efficiency figure of 90%, the GFR1K5 series will appeal to designers looking for a high performance power supply with many features designed to satisfy a wide variety of applications.
All models share the same compact format and feature a hot swappable “Blind-Mate” capability for ease of installation and replacement. Powersolve can also supply a 1U rack capable holding up to four units for a total power output as high as 6kW.
The units are protected against overvoltage, overtemperature, overcurrent and short circuit while an I²C PMBus compatible interface is used for monitoring conditions like the output voltage, current, internal temperature and run time. It can also be used to turn the unit on and off and detect faults.
- No additional expense for components or assembly

Compact and rugged 1.25mm Pitch Connectors
Harwin manufactures a comprehensive portfolio of reliable interconnects, to the highest quality standards, offering assured performance. The range of Gecko 1.25mm pitch connectors from Harwin is lightweight, but still extremely robust. Their compact dimensions mean that they are optimised for addressing modern high- density electronic designs where there is only limited available space. They are up to 45% smaller and 75% lighter than standard Micro-D connector equivalents. Each of their Beryllium Copper plated contacts is capable of delivering 2A of current.
The Gecko connector range can provide cable-to-board, board-to-board and cable-to-cable connectivity options that exhibit industry-leading longevity – supporting a -65°C to +150°C operational temperature range, plus 1,000 mating cycles. Their heavy-duty construction allows these components to withstand exposure to elevated levels of shock (100g 6m/s on Z axis) and vibration (20g/2000Hz). Consequently, they can deal with the most demanding of application environments – including avionics, motorsport and space exploration.

Omron release new small size PCB Power Relay
boasting high switching capacity of 32A Omron Electronic Components Europe has announced a new miniature, high switching capacity PCB Power Relay. G6QE has been developed for a high switching capacity of 32A in a small size package.
The low height single-pole power relay achieved 10-kV impulse withstand voltage and a reduced power consumption of 12% compared to rated coil consumption. The G6QE has been designed to conform with cULus, EN and CQC standards and allows developers to design smaller size and higher performance in their applications with a high switching capacity of 32A and some 50,000 operations. It provides an energy saving by allowing
the holding voltage method, which also lowers heat generation in the application.
At just 30.5 x 16 x 20.5mm G6QE is not only miniature but is also incredibly versatile and can be used in a wide variety of applications including industrial, home appliances and commercial applications such as power supply and inverters.
Visit Omron at Stand: A.p17 at EUW in Vienna, 6-8 November, 2018.

Low profile DOSA converters are
made in Europe RECOM’s latest innovation increases the power density of DOSA- packaged DC/DC converters to a new level. The 6A module has at least 50% higher power density than its peers on the market, thanks to a new IC and a novel multi-layer PCB layout. It’s thermally optimized to pull the heat away from the board - so without derating it delivers over 800W/in³ at up to 90°C. The RPM modules stand out due to their exceptional efficiency of up to 99%, enabling a low-profile package
perfect for applications where space is critical. They provide either 1, 2, 3, or even 6A in the same-sized package for scalability with a profile of only 3.75mm. With a ground plane in the PCB together with the metal housing, 6-sided shielding guarantees great EMC performance. The RPM power modules have been successfully designed, tested, and manufactured – all in Europe!
