Schaffner pleased to announce the launch of the new IEC filter series FN9274. It was specially designed for medical applications.
The filter was designed according to Class II medical equipment standard IEC/EN 60601-1. The so-called Two MOPP requirement (Means of Patient Protection) is achieved “out of the box”.
| Classifications | Isolation | Creepage/ Clearance |
Insulation |
| 1 x MOOP | 1500 Vac | 2.5mm / 2mm | Basic |
| 2 x MOOP | 3000 Vac | 5mm / 4mm | Double |
| 1 X MOPP | 1500 Vac | 4mm / 2.5mm | Basic |
| 2 x MOPP | 4000 Vac | 8mm / 5mm | Double |
Outside Connector:
The FN9274 filters use C18 inlet receptacles without an earth pin (according to IEC 60320). They are compatible with C17 V-Lock locking power cords to avoid accidental disconnection of power.
Versatile Configurations:
The new FN9274 inlet filter series is available in three mounting configurations, front panel mount, rear panel mount, and snap-in fit. There are also two termination styles available for each configuration, fast-on, and wire leads.
Comparison of IEC Filter Series:
FN9274 series complements Schaffner’s existing portfolio of IEC filters, which have successfully served the medical industry for many years. All of our FN92xxB and FN92xxEB models add no leakage current to medical systems; thereby maintaining safety in critical environments.
