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.
Thermal management complements EMC
Range encompasses single component PCB mounted heatsinks through to high-performance fan-cooled heatsink assemblies and liquid coolers.
The single-stage FN 2030 version is for suppression of symmetric interference signals, whereas the multistage FN 2090 version is used both for symmetric as well as for asymmetric interference signals.
The new filters are designed for a maximum continuous operation voltage of 250V AC at 50 or 60Hz and for rated currents from 1 to 30A (20A for FN 2090).
As well as the standard version, both filter series are also available as safety or medical versions with low leakage currents and operate over the frequency range from DC to 400Hz.
The FN 2030 and FN 2090 filter series can be supplied with surge pulse protection to IEC61000-4-5 as an option.
Medical versions of the filters are supplied without Y-capacitors and for safety critical applications low capacitance models offer low leakage currents.
The filters have all required international safety agency approvals, calculated MTBF of up to 2.2Mh and are compatible with the RoHS Directive.
The new filters are designed for chassis mounting, meet IP40 protection requirements and have a number of terminal options to suit any application.
All FN 2030 and FN 2090 filters employ chokes with high permeable core material and provide exceptional conducted attenuation performance and excellent thermal behaviour.
Operating temperature range is -25 to +100C.
Sam Williamson, Component Sales Manager for Schaffner, comments: "These new filters meet customers demands for compact, highly efficient EMC filters which may be used worldwide".
"The medical versions offer a leakage current of typically 2uA which will be very helpful to all medical systems manufacturers".
Typical applications for Schaffner's new FN 2030 and FN 2090 filters include: electrical and electronic equipment, consumer goods, household equipment, electronic data processing equipment, office automation and datacomms equipment and other electrically noisy applications requiring high filter performance.
