P Series
The P series CHAMELEON power entry module offers
the most popular features in a small footprint design
As the first 10A module to provide all five power
entry functions in one compact design, the
chameleon module readily adapts to its environment
and the needs of international markets.
• Snap-in or flange mounting
• Standard IEC 60321-1 C14 power inlet
• Both North American and metric fusing
capabilities
• Two voltage selection options (for 4-voltage
selection, see the M, L or LA Series)
• Optional DPST on/off switch
• Filter options for general purpose, medical and
high-performance EMI filtering
The CHAMELEON module’s compact design and
modular construction allows selection of the required
power entry feature — without altering the panel
cutout. And the CHAMELEON module, with its
optional adapters, will fit several common panel
cutouts.
Filter Types
The CHAMELEON module has four filter and one
non-filtered option:
S models provide an extended performance two
element circuit EMI filter, with attenuation similar to
the EEB Series power inlet filter. It offers protection
for general purpose applications with stray Line to
Ground and Line to Line noise that must be attenuated at the power inlet. These filters have limited
leakage current and are available in current ratings of
3, 6 and 10A.
L models feature a high performance medical filter
designed to help bring most digital equipment
(including switching power supplies) into compliance
with EN55022, Level B (as well as FCC part 15J, Class
B) conducted emissions limits. They are available
with current ratings of 6 and 10A. These high
performance versions are only available with
mounting ears, single voltage selection, in a complete
RFI shield with options for switch, fuses and current
ratings. Mounting extenders are not compatible with
the L or Z models.
Z models provide a high performance three element
differential mode circuit filter, with extended EMI
attenuation similar to the M Series Z models, to help
bring most digital equipment (including switching
power supplies) into compliance with EN55022, Level
B (as well as FCC Part 15J, Class B) conducted emissions limits. They are available with current ratings of
6 and 10A. These high performance versions are only
available with mounting ears, single voltage selection,
in a complete RFI shield with options for switch, fuses
and current ratings. Mounting extenders are not
compatible with the L or Z models. For minimum
depth behind the panel, see the M Series
B models are non-filtered and incorporate an interconnection block. The block connects the voltage
selection terminals of an unfiltered CHAMELEON
module with an IEC connector and an optional switch
to reduce external wiring. Compatible with the A or B
RFI shield options.
H models provide susceptibility protection with
minimal leakage current, and are suitable for patient
care and non-patient care medical equipment.

P Series
Voltage Selection
Shield Options
P series power entry modules include the voltage
selector integral with the fuse holder. Three voltage
selection options are each supported by one of three
different fuse holders. The fifth digit of the part
number specifies which of the three fuse holders is
included to provide the desired voltage selection.
The single voltage fuse holder (option “0”) has no
voltage indication markings. The dual voltage options
select 115V or 230V by removing the fuse holder, flipping it over, and reinstalling it. Voltage selection is
indicated through a window in the P Series door. The
“SMPS” fuse holder (option “S”) jumpers two independent P Series terminals to indicate 230V
operation to a switching mode power supply. The
“PRSR” parallel/serial fuse holder (option “X”)
connects the windings of the equipment’s dual
primary transformer (not included) to step down the
voltage or double up the current. The markings on
the voltage selection fuse holders also remind the
user to install the appropriate fuse for the current at
the selected voltage.
The P series offers several RF shield options. The
metal shield, optional on S, H and B filtered models,
provides shielding from radiated emissions and
provides an RF ground for the filter to the panel. This
shield is available in two versions; a shield of the filter
components (designated by an A as the final digit)
and a complete shield (designated by B as the final
digit).
The A shield covers the filter portion of the module
and increases performance of the filter by protecting
the components from RFI coupling. This shield
allows the use of the C or J extender.
The B shield covers the entire power entry module
with metal, protecting the filter from RFI coupling,
and covering the mounting cut-out to block RFI
entering or leaving the equipment. The B shield
cannot be used with any extender.
A complete metal enclosure is integral to both the
high performance L and Z models, and must be specified by a C in the part number’s final digit. This
option is only available with the L or Z models.

Fuseholder
Accessories
Another feature of the P series power entry module is
the versatile fusing arrangement. The fuse holder can
hold two 1/4” x 1-1/4” (3AG) or 5 x 20mm (metric)
fuses. Single fusing is supported with a conversion
clip that shorts one of the two fuse positions, and is
designated by an S in the sixth part number digit. A
module designated for a single fuse may be reconfigured by the manufacturer or the user to accept two
fuses by simply removing the shorting clip. For applications intended for dual fusing, specify a D in the
sixth part number digit.

Interconnection Block
Installation of the unfiltered versions of the P series
requires wiring of the IEC socket terminals to the
optional switch and the switch to the fuse holder.
Labor can be eliminated by ordering the module
with an interconnection block. This feature, designated by “BX” in the seventh and eighth digits, pre
wires the module so that only connection to the
equipment must be done during installation. The
interconnection block includes a plastic case to
prevent access to the internal connections.
