EMI filter modules from Foster Transformer are available with optional surge protection and can be mounted with ¼″ quick connect terminals, allowing their installation where needed—even multiple locations within a piece of equipment. Fully encapsulated construction complies with EN 133200 and UL 1283, while a UL94 VO plastic enclosure increases protection against electrical shock. Leakage current is reduced by eliminating the capacitor to earth ground connection. Standard models incorporate 5.0-mH common mode inductors suitable for up to 6-A service. Options available include bypass capacitors for increased differential noise rejection and MOVs to protect against line transients. These RoHs compliant filter modules are well suited to use in appliances, medical devices, and recreational vehicles.More information is available at the Foster Transformer website.
