Power entry modules put five into one

P series power entry modules from Tyco Electronics are the first 10A devices to provide all five power entry functions in one small package.

Recently introduced P series of power entry modules (Chameleon modules) from Tyco Electronics are the first 10A devices to provide all five power entry functions in one small package Chameleon modules offer increased design flexibility and readily adapt to their environment and the needs of international markets

Benefiting from a compact design and modular construction, Chameleon modules allow power entry features to be selected without altering the panel cutout.

With adapters the devices will fit any standard panel cutout.

Technical features of the Chameleon module range include snap-in or flange mounting, IEC powerline connector, both North American and European fusing capabilities, two voltage selections, optional DPST on/off switch and filtering options for general purpose, medical, and high-performance applications.

Chameleon power entry modules feature four filter options.

S models offer protection for general purpose applications where line-to-ground and line-to-line noise must be controlled.

H models provide susceptibility protection without leakage current associated with line-to-ground capacitors and allows equipment to meet UL544 for patient care and non-patient care products.

High performance filter versions (L models and Z models) are designed to help bring most digital equipment into compliance with EN55022, Level B conducted emissions limits, whereas L models also comply with medical standards UL544, UL2601 and EN60601.

In addition, an interconnection block (B models) is available for the Chameleon module range, reducing external wiring by connecting the voltage selection terminals of an unfiltered P series module with a switch and an IEC connector. Request a free brochure from Tyco Electronics UK ...
