EAC301X

Overview

The EAC301X is an AC power entry module manufactured by Switchcraft Inc. It functions as a male AC receptacle with IEC-320 C-14 connector type and quick connect solder terminals. Rated for 10 A current and 250 VAC voltage, it features panel mount installation style. The housing is constructed from polyester with UL 94 V-0 flammability rating. Operating temperature range spans from -55 C to +65 C. It is not switched or filtered.

Feature Summary

• Provides secure panel mounting for AC power input connections
• Utilizes quick connect solder terminals for circuit board integration
• Constructed from polyester material meeting UL 94 V-0 standards

Applications

• Industrial equipment power entry
• Commercial electronics enclosures
• Audio visual system power interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific terminal configuration and insulation ratings against your design requirements before procurement. Confirm compliance with regional safety certifications required for your target market. Ensure the panel cutout dimensions match the mechanical specifications provided in the official datasheet to guarantee proper fit and secure mounting during assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a non-switched, non-filtered IEC C-14 receptacle is required for panel mounting applications. Consider the 10 A current rating and 250 VAC voltage limits to ensure compatibility with the downstream power supply unit. Verify that the quick connect solder terminal type aligns with the printed circuit board layout and manufacturing capabilities available for the production line.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IEC series of AC power entry modules produced by Switchcraft Inc. It serves as a standard interface component for connecting external power cords to internal electronic systems. The design focuses on reliable electrical connection and mechanical stability within enclosed equipment housings requiring standardized AC power input points.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings with other IEC C-14 receptacles from different manufacturers. Ensure terminal type and mounting style compatibility before substituting.
