Electromagnetic Interference Filters What this product does Suppresses conducted electromagnetic interference (EMI) on power and signal lines to prevent noise from entering or leaving your equipment. Protects sensitive circuits and helps systems meet EMC/EMI compliance and certification requirements. Improves stability and reduces malfunctions, false triggers, and data errors caused by electrical noise. Key benefits — why you need it Reliable noise reduction: Lowers conducted interference so connected equipment runs more reliably and predictably. Faster compliance: Helps you meet regulatory emission limits and avoid timeconsuming redesigns or costly shielding. Longer equipment life: Reduces stress on components caused by frequency noise, lowering failure rates and maintenance costs. Simple integration: Available mounting and termination options make installation straightforward in designs or retrofits. Important attributes Function: Attenuates commonmode and differentialmode noise on AC and DC lines; suitable for power entry, power supplies, and signal lines where conducted EMI is a concern. Compatibility: Works with a wide range of systems — industrial controls, power electronics, telecom equipment, consumer electronics, and medical devices. Typical variants include singlephase and threephase models, PCBmount, chassismount, and snapin housings. Size and form factor: Offered in compact packages for spaceconstrained assemblies as well as larger cases for highercurrent applications. Multiple lead and connector styles support quick wiring and standardized panel cutouts. Materials and construction: Metal or plated housings and temperature dielectric components for durable electrical and mechanical performance. Internal cores and capacitors selected for stable attenuation across temperature and frequency ranges. Performance: Designed to provide attenuation in the typical interference bands encountered on power lines, with low insertion loss for the intended operating frequency range and rated current capacity matching the chosen model. Typical applications (practical scenarios) Industrial machinery: Install filters at motor drives, VFDs, and control cabinets to prevent switching noise from disrupting PLCs, sensors, and downstream equipment. Power supplies and inverters: Place filters on AC mains and DC outputs to reduce ripple and switching interference that can cause malfunction in downstream electronics. Medical and telecom equipment: Use filters to protect sensitive measurement and communication systems from external and internally generated conducted noise, assisting in maintaining signal integrity and regulatory compliance. Installation and selection tips Match current rating and voltage class to your system before selection. Choose the mounting style (PCB, chassis, or panel) that fits your enclosure and wiring layout. Confirm attenuation characteristics across the frequency range relevant to your application; evaluate commonmode and differentialmode performance as needed. Consider environmental requirements (temperature, humidity, vibration) and select a construction rated for those conditions. If you need assistance choosing the right filter configuration for a specific application or load, provide the operating voltage, current, mounting preference, and the primary sources of interference, and the appropriate model can be recommended.
