EMI filters modules from Foster Transformer are available with optional surge suppression. These devices can be mounted with ¼-inch quick connect terminals, a feature that allows them to be used wherever needed for EMI suppression—even in multiple locations within one piece of equipment. The fully encapsulated construction of these device complies with EN 133200 and UL 1283, while a UL94 VO plastic enclosure increases protection against electrical shock. Leaking current is reduced by eliminating the capacitor-to-earth ground connection. Standard models incorporate 0.5-mH common mode inductors suitable for up to 6-amp service. Available options include bypass capacitors for increased differential mode noise rejection, and MOVs to protect against line transient. These RoHs compliant filters are well suited to use in appliances, medical devices, and recreational vehicles. Learn more at the Foster Transformerwebsite.
