Harmonic filters raise power system efficiency
Load-applied passive harmonic filters represent the ideal solution for three-phase power electronics with six-pulse rectifier front ends.
Two-stage filter circuits with high component values are key to the provision of exceptional attenuation performance, compared with traditional PCB-mounting filters.
Additionally, the adoption of small-scale components is crucial to the combination of high performance with the smallest possible module size.
Being DC only, FN 409 series filters are expected to be widely adopted by manufacturers of board-mount DC/DC convertors, IT-equipment, telecomms, UMTS modules and similar areas, where high-efficiency DC filtering is essential.
The filters are designed for an operating voltage of 75V DC, with two current rating options, 6.5 and 13A.
A UL94V0-rated plastic housing features pin connections for PCB-mounting.
The units will operate in a wide temperature range, from -40 up to +100C.
The overall filter dimensions match the size of common DC/DC power convertors.
The height is 11.7mm (for the 6.5A version) and 12.7mm (for the 13A version), in common industry-standard full-, three-quarter-, half- and quarter-brick board-mount power modules. Request a free brochure from Schaffner ...
