Auto-Lock Electrical Connection Locking mechanism
For years, Networking and Medical Professionals have strived to find solutions for cable retention.Quail Electronics is pleased to introduce a new and exciting solution to power electrical connection: the IEC Auto-Lock™! The Auto-Lock™ is an internal retention mechanism that actually hooks to the pins of power supply inlets and resists any axial force unless the Auto-Lock™ mechanism is released!
North American Power Cords North American cords are keyed by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) in relation to both current and voltage. All North American cords are UL and C-UL approved.
IEC Auto-Lock™: Locking IEC Solution for your cords by Quail
Quail Electronics is pleased to introduce a new and exciting solution to power electrical connection: the IEC AUTO-LOCK™! The Auto-Lock™ is an internal retention mechanism that actually hooks to the pins of power supply inlets and resists any axial force unless the Auto-Lock™ mechanism is released! Tremendous amounts of force cannot get the electrical connector to budge, but as soon as the IEC Auto-Lock™ mechanism is manually deactivated, the connector slips easily out of the inlet.
Hospital Grade Power Cords and Green Dot Medical Power Cords Power cords used in hospital environments are subject to special requirements by Underwriters Laboratories. Before granting approval, UL applies rigorous tests which check durability and conductivity to ensure that the product operates at peak levels. Once a product line is approved, it is stamped with the green dot which is the trademark of hospital grade UL cords.
