Power Entry Modules What it does Combines the AC inlet, power switch, and protective elements (fuse holder and/or EMI filter) into a single, compact unit. Provides a single mounting point for power connection, switching, protection, and noise suppression so wiring and assembly are faster and cleaner. Why customers need it Saves space and reduces part count by integrating multiple functions into one module. Simplifies assembly and servicing — one removal replaces multiple components and connections. Improves safety and reliability through firm mechanical mounting and designed electrical interfaces. Helps meet conducted EMI requirements by including filter options that reduce interference to and from equipment. Key benefits Reduced assembly time and cost: fewer parts and simpler wiring lower labor and error risk. Easier maintenance: accessible fuse holders and switches are faster to service than discrete setups. Cleaner panel design: one module produces a neater, more professional enclosure appearance. Enhanced system performance: builtin filtering and secure connections improve electrical stability. Important attributes Function: integrates inlet, switch, fuse holder, and optional EMI filter into one assembly for straightforward installation. Compatibility: designed to work with standard panel cutouts and common appliance inlet formats; compatible with a wide range of equipment that requires a secure AC entry point. Size and mounting: compact, panelmounted form factors minimize use of internal space and simplify enclosure design. Materials and durability: engineered housings and electrical contacts deliver reliable mechanical and electrical performance over typical equipment lifecycles. Performance: available configurations support protection and noise suppression features appropriate for industrial, commercial, and consumer applications. Practical applications (use scenarios) Office equipment and consumer electronics: integrate a single module to provide a neat power entry with switch and fuse for printers, monitors, and audio equipment. Industrial control panels and machinery: simplify cabinet wiring and offer EMI filtering to protect sensitive control electronics from electrical noise. Test benches and service equipment: speed up maintenance and component swaps with accessible fuses and a clearly labeled power switch at the panel. Installation and selection tips Choose a module configuration that matches your required inlet type, switch style, and protection/filter options. Confirm panel cutout dimensions and connector orientation to ensure proper fit and clearance for wiring. Consider filter and fuse options when you need to meet conducted EMI limits or provide specific circuit protection. How it stands out Integrates essential power functions in one product for a cleaner design and easier serviceability. Reduces assembly complexity and potential wiring errors while improving electrical performance and safety. Suitable for a broad range of equipment where space, reliability, and EMI control matter. Specifications and ordering Modules are supplied in multiple configurations to match common inlet formats, switch types, fuse holders, and filter options. Select the configuration that aligns with your panel layout and electrical requirements.
