10EK3

Overview

The TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 10EK3 is a single-phase EMC/EMI line filter module designed for commercial applications. It features a rated current of 10 A and a rated AC voltage of 250 V at 50/60 Hz. The unit utilizes wire lead termination and employs a single-stage filtering configuration. Operating within a temperature range of -10°C to 40°C, it is packaged in bulk.

Feature Summary

• Single-stage EMI/RFI filtering for power line noise suppression
• Wire lead termination style for circuit board integration
• Commercial grade construction suitable for general electronic equipment

Applications

• General purpose electronic equipment power input stages
• Commercial machinery requiring EMI suppression
• Industrial control systems with standard AC power inputs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the 10EK3 part number to confirm exact terminal dimensions and mounting requirements. Ensure the application environment remains within the specified -10°C to 40°C operating temperature range. Confirm that the single-stage attenuation meets the electromagnetic compatibility standards required by the final system design before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-stage filter solution is sufficient for the target EMI reduction requirements. The wire lead termination is appropriate for direct soldering or crimping onto PCBs or terminal blocks. Consider the 10 A current rating to ensure adequate headroom for the maximum continuous load current of the connected equipment without thermal degradation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the TE Connectivity Corcom Filters K series, which covers ratings from 1 to 10 Amps. The K series provides various termination options including wire leads and quick connect terminals. This specific model represents the 10 A variant within the single-stage filtering portfolio, offering a balance between performance and physical footprint for standard commercial power inlet applications.
