SCHURTER: 5180 Appliance Inlet Filter with IP67
October 6, 2025
Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With product type 5180 and the associated V-Lock power cord, SCHURTER is launching an IP54 device connection that meets even the most demanding requirements.
The newly developed SCHURTER 5180 is a appliance inlet with filter in accordance with IEC 60320 and IEC 60529. Thanks to several seals, the built-in device plug provides IP67 protection for the housing. In combination with the corresponding V-Lock power cord, a protection rating of IP54 is achieved when plugged in. This rating offers excellent protection against dust particles and is splash-proof.
Special sealing gaskets
The blue colour of the V-Lock cable socket alone indicates that something is different here. Both the device plug and the power cord have been equipped with special sealing elements to achieve a high IP protection rating. The new blue V-Lock cable ensures reliable pull-out protection and tightness.
Standard and high-performance
Standard and high-performance versions are available. The latter are equipped with nanocrystalline cores in the chokes.
Green Line
The new 5180 device connector filter is also available in a version made from plant-based plastic. This significantly reduces the component’s CO₂ emissions.
5180 Applications
Wherever dirt, dust particles, or splashing water may occur, the new SCHURTER technology is a perfect choice. This can be the case in harsh working environments in industry. In the medical field, a higher IP protection class is required. This is because medical devices must be cleaned, disinfected, and even sterilized regularly if necessary. Similar requirements apply in the food industry.
