3VQ8

Overview

The TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 3VQ8 is a single-phase EMC/EMI line filter designed for chassis or flange mounting. It features an IEC 320-C14 input connector and wire lead outputs, rated for 3 A continuous current at 250 VAC. The unit operates within the 50/60 Hz frequency range and utilizes a single-stage filtering architecture. Compliance certifications include UL, CSA, and IEC/EN standards, ensuring suitability for global power conditioning applications requiring compact EMI suppression.

Feature Summary

• Single-stage electromagnetic interference suppression
• IEC 320-C14 input interface with wire leads
• Chassis or flange mounting configuration

Applications

• Power supply input stages
• Medical equipment power conditioning
• Industrial control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application requires the IEC 320-C14 input interface and wire lead termination style. Confirm compliance requirements match UL, CSA, and IEC/EN standards. Ensure the mounting method aligns with chassis or flange installation constraints. Validate that the 3 A current rating meets the load demands without exceeding thermal limits.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-phase, single-stage filter is required for low to moderate current applications. The IEC 320-C14 inlet simplifies integration into standard power entry modules. Consider the wire lead output for custom harnessing rather than PCB mounting. Evaluate space constraints as the design supports flange or chassis mounting.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TE Connectivity Corcom Q Series of power line filters. The series provides general-purpose RFI/EMI suppression for AC power lines. The 3VQ8 variant specifically addresses single-phase applications requiring a standardized inlet connector. It serves as a solution for noise reduction in sensitive electronic equipment powered by standard AC mains.
