All types of the B84143*166 series have UL/CSA approval and are designed for currents of 10, 20 or 35 A at rated voltages of 520 or 300 V AC.  These filters satisfy protection class IP20 specifications and are suitable for operating temperatures of up to 50° C.  Their electrical design is optimized for short motor leads of up to about 10 m to industry limit value class C2. These new filters are contacted via tab connectors or clamp terminals, depending on the type.

A Dash of Maxwell’s: A Maxwell’s Equations Primer – Part One

Solving Maxwell’s Equations for real-life situations, like predicting the RF emissions from a cell tower, requires more mathematical horsepower than any individual mind can muster. These equations don’t give the scientist or engineer just insight, they are literally the answer to everything RF.

Main applications



  • Frequency converters and other power electronics applications




Main features and benefits



  • Cost-effective design thanks to new materials

  • Current capability up to 35 A
  • UL/CSA approval


Glossary

  • EMC: electromagnetic compatibility must be assured to prevent mutual interference between electrical and electronic equipment and systems.

  • UL: Underwriters Laboratories is an independent organization founded in 1894 that tests and certifies products and their safety.
  • CSA: Canadian Standards Association is a non-governmental technical test organization that sets standards and tests products and their safety.



Sample and production orders can be placed immediately.  Pricing depends on type and quantity.
