The PBH filter series from Power Dynamics, Inc. (PDI) targets applications with high current (16/20 A) requirements. These filters are available with varying configurations of components and termination styles. They are available in flange mount or snap-in types. The medical filters offer a maximum leakage current of 2 µA at 120 VAC at 120 VAC, 60 Hz. A ground choke can be added to enhance the grounding ability of the circuit. A bleed resistor can also be added to prevent excessive voltages from developing across the filter capacitors when there is no load. Look for additional information on the PDIwebsite.
