Schurter DKIH - High Current Choke

April 11, 2016

Schurter Logo1.jpg

Nanocrystalline Common Mode Chokes for 1 and 3-Phase Applications Mount on PCB

Schurter expands its wide range of current compensated chokes with high current types for PCB mounting. The new DKIH series is now available with a nanocrystalline ring core, offering 8 times higher inductance performance than ferrite core versions in the same compact dimension. The new product is designed for single and three phase applications with rated currents from 10 to 50 amperes. Due to its open design, the chokes are light weight and compact, ideally designed to suppress EMI noise caused by power applications on the PCB.

DKIH2

Like all other aspects of electronic design, the power portion is oftentimes built today using discrete components on printed circuit boards. With the trending integration of components, to achieve smaller and smaller form factors, thermal problems and high currents on the PCB can become a challenge.
Traditional block filters might well address these challenges, but their larger package size also presents challenges due to the mentioned space constraints; therefore an asymmetrical effective common mode choke and capacitors mounted on the PCB is a better solution.

The new DKIH-1 series is suitable for single phase AC or DC applications from 10 up to 50 amperes. Light weight and compact, the common mode chokes are easily placed on the PCB with through hole technology (THT). They are designed and approved according IEC 60938, UL 1283 and CSA 22.2 no. 8. The voltage rating is 300 VAC (IEC, UL) and 250 VAC (CSA) with an inductance range of 1.6 to 6.9 mH.

The new DKIH-3 series is suitable for three phase AC applications from 10 up to 50 amperes. The common mode chokes are also designed according IEC 60938 and are rated 600 VAC with an inductance range of 0.7 to 10.8 mH, making them suitable for many applications such as UPS systems, switching power supplies, charge stations for electric vehicles and frequency converters for energy storage.

The DKIH-1 and -3 have a wide temperature range of -40 to +100 °C. They are available with a standard pin out or customer specific pin out. Variations in the winding are also available upon request.

DKIH-1
- Rated voltage: 300 VAC (UL, ENEC), 250 VAC (CSA), 425 VDC
- Rated currents: 10 to 50 A (ENEC / UL / CSA) at 40 °C
- Rated inductance: ferrite: 0.15 to 0.80 mH, nanocrystalline: 1.4 – 6.9 mH
- Same dimensions and weight for ferrite and nanocrystalline versions
- Other pin outs available on request

DKIH-3
- Rated voltage: 600 VAC
- Rated currents: 10 to 50 A at 40 °C
- Rated inductance: ferrite: 0.08 to 1.10 mH, nanocrystalline: 0.7 – 10.8 mH
- Same dimensions and weight for ferrite and nanocrystalline versions
- Other pin outs available on request

Application
- Frequency converters for photovoltaic or energy storage
- Charge stations for electric vehicles
- UPS-systems
- Switching power supplies

Schurter Logo1.jpg

Schurter is expanding its successful single-phase filter family, FMAB NEO, with new design series P and Q. This range of single-phase filters combines high performance in a compact design. The new series extends the range of current ratings up to 60 A, with extended temperature range from -40°C to 100°C.

FMAB_NEO1

The new FMAB filter family offers 3 different levels of design flexibility. FMAB NEO design N comes with two large X capacitors, that offer high symmetrical attenuation in the lower frequency range. The new filter design P contains two standard X capacitors for high symmetrical attenuation, while Design Q offers one X capacitor for good symmetrical attenuation. With the extended temperature range from -40 to 100°C, all filters are suitable for applications used in harsh environments.

The FMAB NEO filters have a polished steel housing with a closed filter base. The filter is thus effectively and completely shielded, regardless of how it is mounted. The filter series is particularly suitable for equipment with high symmetrical interferences, such as devices with semiconductors that control high-power equipment, including professional coffee machines, devices with water heaters, and all types of industrial electronics. The compact filters are also suitable for medical equipment and household appliances.

The filter series is fitted with plug-in connections or threaded bolts. A version with wire connections is also available. The metal flange provides easy screw-on mounting.

The series of filters is designed for current levels from 1 A to 60 A at 250 V AC according to IEC and UL standards.The FMAB NEO has ENEC and cURus approvals and is suited for applications according to IEC 60950. Versions are available with small leakage currents <80 μA (M80) or without leakage current <5 μA (M5) for medical equipment according to IEC/UL 60601-1.

Technical Data / Approvals
- 250VAC single-phase block filter
- Single-stage filter with good or standard attenuation
- Filter available ins standard or medical M5 / M80 version
- Rated currents: 1, 3, 6, 10, 12, 16, 20, 30, 60A (ENEC / UL / CSA) at 40°C
- Operating Temperature: -40°C to 100°C
- Chassis: Screw-on mounting, from top
- Quick connect terminals 1 – 20A, nut and bolt 30, 60A, optional wire leads
