By Alix Paultre, contributing editor

Schaffner has had their FN 9280 and FN 9290 families of high-end IEC Power Entry Modules (PEMs) approved to IEC62368-1 Certification to enable customers manufacturing audio/video, information, and communications technology equipment to comply more easily with the requirements of the new technology-independent “hazard-based” standards approach.

Key features of the Schaffner FN 9280 and FN 9290 families of IEC Power Entry Modules include a removable front flange, which offers 4D (front, back, horizontal, and vertical) assembly, snap-in mounting, and various performance versions including single or dual stage and reduced leakage current levels. The FN 9280 and FN 9290 simplify panel design as all versions have the same cutout size.
