Power Entry Modules What it does Combines essential power components into a single, compact assembly so you can manage AC power input, switching, protection, and filtering without multiple discrete parts. Simplifies panel or PCB integration by providing a readymade interface between external power and internal circuitry. Key customer benefits Saves assembly time and reduces wiring errors by replacing several separate parts with one integrated module. Improves safety and reliability through consistent, factoryfit connections and robust contact design. Reduces enclosure space and design complexity, enabling smaller, cleaner product layouts. Makes maintenance and replacement faster — swap a single module instead of diagnosing multiple components. Important attributes Function: integrates one or more power functions such as AC inlet, on/off switch, fuse holder, and/or EMI/RFI filter in a single unit (module features vary by model). Compatibility: available in panelmount and PCBmount configurations to match common enclosure and board designs; interface options align with standard power cable and connector formats. Size: compact footprints tailored to minimize frontpanel cutouts and internal depth; module formats support single and multifunction arrangements. Material: durable housings and conductive contacts designed for mechanical strength and longterm electrical performance; materials are selected for heat resistance and durability. Performance: designed to handle rated current and voltage for the intended application, maintain contact integrity over repeated cycles, and provide stable connection under vibration and thermal stress. Practical use scenarios Industrial control panels: Integrate the inlet, main switch, and fuse holder into one module to reduce wiring complexity, speed assembly, and simplify field servicing. Test and measurement equipment: Use a PCBmount power entry module to provide a compact, reliable power interface with optional EMI filtering to protect sensitive circuits. Telecom and networking enclosures: Fit a spacesaving module with inlet and switch to streamline frontpanel layouts and enable quick module replacement during maintenance. Why choose a power entry module Consolidation of functions reduces part count and failure points. Standardized mechanical and electrical interfaces make design and sourcing predictable. Modules allow rapid prototyping and faster timetomarket by avoiding custom power assemblies. Selection guidance Match the module's mounting style (panel or PCB) to your enclosure. Verify the module's rated voltage and current against your application requirements. Confirm required functions (inlet type, switch position, fuse holder, filter) are included in the chosen model. For reliable, spaceefficient power interfaces, a power entry module provides a practical, durable solution that streamlines assembly and maintenance while keeping power connections organized and accessible.
