With the 'V-Lock' system, SCHURTER launches an attractive and simple cord retaining solution for IEC appliance couplers 10A and 16A. Various connectors, power entry modules and several country-specific
power supply cords are available with this option. The pin in the socket interlocking with a notch in the plug
prevents unintentional pullout of the power cable. Hence this eliminates the need for a specific socket system or retaining device that has to be adapted and built-in.
The locking is released by pressing on the releasing lever. This lever is easily identified by its bright yellow color and thus distinguishes this system from existing power cable connections. The extraction force has a
minimum of 200 N. Typical applications are in medical appliances, analysis and laboratory instruments, telecom and IT devices, power distribution or radio and TV studios.
