Interference suppression filters for safe power supply
Interference suppression filters and mains filters limit pulse-like, high-frequency interference voltages caused by mechanical or electronically triggered switching operations. If interference voltages are not limited, they spread via the cable network and electrically conductive connections. This can result in data errors, uncontrolled functions, and system crashes. Mains filters ensure an EMC-compliant power supply by limiting interference voltages.
Description
Your Advantages:
- Clear and tidy control cabinets due to the mounting material and cable routing systems
- Protection against pulse-like and high-frequency voltages using filters with integrated surge protection
- Large number of fields of application due to various different attenuation curves
Flexible designs – can be used in control cabinets and at the workplace
- Compact protection using symmetrical and asymmetrical filter circuit
Interference suppression filter with dedicated filter circuit
Interference suppression filters or mains filters with a dedicated filter circuit protect against both symmetrical and asymmetrical disturbance variables.
- Interference suppression filter
- DIN-rail mountable
- 1 to 10 A nominal current
Operating principle of filter circuits
Filtering of symmetrical disturbance variables X
Interference voltages between the phase and neutral conductor are filtered.
Filtering of asymmetrical disturbance variables Y1 Y2
The respective negative phase-sequence grounded interference voltages from the phase conductor to PE and from the neutral conductor to PE are filtered.
Effective range of mains filters
An attenuation characteristic curve diagram illustrates the effective operating range of mains filters. The relevant frequency-dependent attenuation can be read according to the symmetrical or asymmetrical filter circuit.
