Schaffner EMC Inc. announced a compact new family of power entry modules that enhances its existing IEC inlet filter ranges and provides more electrical and mechanical options to chose from.
The new FN 9263 series combines an IEC inlet module and an EMC filter with a single pole rocker switch. The filters’ small housings, designed to fit a 1U rack, make them suitable for devices with limited space such as portable electrical equipment, small- to medium-sized machines and household equipment and single-phase power supplies that require low-cost solutions. The filters are claimed to provide excellent symmetrical and asymmetrical attenuation performance and are mechanically compatible with Schaffner’s FN 9260 series, which features fuses instead of switches.
Specifications for the RoHS-compliant FN 9263 filter series include a maximum continuous operating voltage of 250Vac, a rated current of 1 to 10A at a maximum of 40°C (104°F) and an operating frequency of dc to 400 Hz. The filters are available in a variety of mechanical mounting versions including screw mount and snap-in versions for horizontal and vertical mounting. They are UL, CSA and EN rated and meet all other necessary safety requisites.
