TE Connectivity has launched the new CORCOM FB power line filter series. The FB Series power line filters are specially designed for lighting devices, fluorescent lamp and related lighting ballasts but are also suitable for applications requiring 277 VAC or 277 VDC. The compact size of this filter allows installation in most standard lighting tracks.
This new power line filter is placed between a lighting device and a line external to it. It attenuates conducted radio frequencies - RFI, also known as electromagnetic interference (EMI) - between the line and the equipment. The successful regulation of EMI interference will allow devices to operate as defined, in the intended environment, without suffering any degradation in performance due to interference, and without disrupting the performance of other equipment.
The FB Series power line filters are also suitable for LED displays, various lighting devices and lower current single phase applications requiring mid-range attenuation such as TV/Audio/Video; Home appliances; gaming machines; exercise equipment; computing & accessories. The new FB Series offers good attenuation in the range of 100 kHz to 30 MHz and a current rating range from .5A to 5A. It is UL listed to UL 935, the industry standard for florescent ballasts. These parts are also UL recognized, CSA certified and VDE approved.
