Schurter receives approval for EC12 Power Entry Module in China

SCHURTER’s EC12 series Power Entry Module (PEM) has received the CQC approval mark, which is mandatory for PEMs with EMC filters used in China.

The IEC Power Entry Module, with integrated C20 appliance inlet and 2-pole ON/Off switch, is ENEC approved up to 16 A at 250 VAC and cURus approved up to 20 A at 125/250 VAC.

The EC12 is offered with current ratings 12, 16 and 20 A for standard or medical low leakage applications. Ideal for applications with high transient loads, the switch features a high inrush current withstand according to IEC/EN 61058-1. It is also offered with illumination, as well as other marking options or I/O marking orientation. The appliance inlet can be specified to mate with V-Lock cordsets, which are offered in varying lengths and country-specific plugs to safeguard against unintentional disconnection.

The CQC Mark Certification is otherwise a voluntary product certification sanctioned by the China Certification & Inspection Group (CCIC) to manage the process for manufacturers interested in pursuing the China Compulsory Certification (CCC). It is a certification system in which merchants voluntarily participate. The voluntary product certification service (called CQC mark certification) carried out by CQC certification indicates that the product meets the relevant quality, safety, environmental protection, performance, and other standards by imposing the CQC mark.
