EC Series

  • Three element differential mode circuit provides the highest attenuation of any available standard inlet filter
  • High common mode inductance
  • High differential mode capacitance
  • Effective attenuation of Line to Ground and Line to Line noise across the frequency range
  • Performance and application similar to the ED series but with higher differential mode performance
  • Includes several termination options

Specifications

Maximum leakage current, each Line to Ground:
  @ 120 VAC 60 Hz .25 mA
  @ 250 VAC 50 Hz .50 mA
     
Hipot rating (one minute):
  Line to Ground 2250 VDC
  Line to Line 1450 VDC
     
Operating Frequency: 50 / 60 Hz
     
Rated voltage (max.): 250 VAC
     
Rated Current: 1A to 10A
   
Operating Ambient Temperature Range (at rated current Ir):
    -10°C to +40°C
In an ambient temperature (Ta) higher than +40°C
the maximum operating current (Io) is calculated as
follows: Io = Ir √(85-Ta)/45
