Product catalog summary

Overview

This document offers a detailed technical guide on IEC connectors, including plugs, sockets, fuseholders, and accessories manufactured by Bulgin Components and others. It covers product categories, technical specifications, standards compliance, mounting options, and ordering information, aimed at engineers and procurement specialists selecting reliable power connectors for electrical equipment.

1. Product Categories

  • Panel Mounting Plugs and Sockets: Available in snap-in and screw mounting types, designed for various panel thicknesses.
  • PCB Mounting Connectors: Plugs and sockets for printed circuit boards, including fused variants.
  • In-line Connectors: Male and female plugs and sockets for flexible cable connections, offered in straight and angled configurations.
  • Fused Inlets: Single and bipolar fuse holders integrated into plugs for circuit protection.
  • IEC Lock: Locking mechanisms to secure connectors firmly in place.
  • Accessories: Insulation boots, retaining clips, and universal lock systems to enhance safety and installation reliability.

2. Technical Specifications

  • Voltage Ratings: Primarily 250 V for IEC connectors; some American variants rated at 125 V.
  • Current Ratings: Range from 2.5 A up to 20 A depending on product type and regional standards (10 A Europe, 15 A USA common).
  • Contact Materials: Tinned brass, nickel-plated brass, or silver-plated brass, chosen for corrosion resistance and conductivity.
  • Body Materials: Nylon UL94-V0 and glass-filled nylon for flame retardancy and mechanical strength.
  • Temperature Ratings: Up to 120°C for certain power inlets.
  • Panel Thickness Compatibility: Options from 0.3 mm to 6.3 mm to suit different mounting requirements.

3. Standards and Approvals

  • Compliance with international standards EN 60320-1, EN 60320-2-2, and IEC 60320 for appliance couplers.
  • Bulgin approval codes (e.g., SA 2403, SA 2404, PX0649) certify quality and safety compliance.
  • Some products have pending or no approvals; users should verify suitability for certified applications.

4. Mounting and Fixing Methods

  • Snap-In Fixing: Enables quick installation without screws, suitable for specified panel thicknesses.
  • Horizontal Screw Fixing: Traditional screw mounting with screws oriented horizontally, providing secure attachment.
  • Vertical Screw Fixing: Screws oriented vertically for panel mounting.
  • Product codes include identifiers for fixing type and panel thickness to ensure correct selection.

5. Accessories and Safety Features

  • Insulation boots made from PVC UL94-V0 enhance electrical safety.
  • Retaining clips and universal lock systems (e.g., KT0006, KT0009, KT0012) secure connectors and prevent accidental disconnection.
  • Compatibility tables guide accessory selection for specific connector models.

6. Product Dimensions and Packaging

  • Dimensions vary by series and mounting type, with detailed measurements for panel thickness and contact sizes.
  • Standard packaging quantities range from single units to bulk packs (e.g., 12, 20, 50, 100 pieces).
  • Some models offer shuttered holes for enhanced protection upon request.
  • Stock availability is indicated, with lead times noted for certain items.

7. Material Specifications

  • Body Materials: Nylon UL94-V0 and glass-filled nylon provide durability, insulation, and flame retardancy.
  • Contact Materials: Nickel-plated brass for screw fixing and tinned brass for soldering ensure reliable electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

8. Product Codes and Configurations

  • Product codes reflect series, panel thickness, contact termination style (solder, faston, none), and fixing method.
  • Examples include PX6490000 (in-line double-pole plus earth plug, male, straight), PX6500000 (panel mounting double-pole plus earth socket, female, locking), PX6510000 and PX6520000 (panel mounting three-pole sockets and in-line angled male plugs).

9. Applications

Suitable for medical equipment, computers, cash registers, small household appliances, instrumentation, and other electrical devices requiring standardized, safe power connections.

10. Important Notes and Recommendations

  • Verify panel thickness and fixing method compatibility before installation.
  • Use appropriate retaining clips and insulation boots to ensure safety and compliance.
  • Check approval status for use in certified applications.
  • Some connectors are not suitable for PCB mounting; confirm product suitability.
