4601-501

Overview

The 4601-501 is an LC EMI feedthrough filter manufactured by Tusonix, a subsidiary of CTS Electronic Components. It features a capacitance of 2.4µF and a rated voltage of 15 A. The component utilizes an axial bushing package with two solder eyelets for mounting. It is designed to suppress electromagnetic interference in power lines.

Feature Summary

• Provides effective attenuation of electromagnetic interference through LC filtering topology
• Features a robust axial bushing design with integrated solder eyelets for secure panel mounting
• Capable of handling high current loads suitable for demanding power applications

Applications

• Power supply input filtering
• Industrial equipment EMI suppression
• Military and aerospace electronic systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific attenuation characteristics at your operating frequency against the official datasheet, as performance varies with signal frequency. Confirm that the axial bushing dimensions and solder eyelet configuration match your panel cutout requirements. Ensure the 15 A current rating exceeds your maximum load current to prevent thermal failure. Check RoHS3 compliance status if required by your assembly specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high current capacity and strong low-frequency EMI rejection are required. The bushing style allows for direct chassis grounding, which enhances noise suppression compared to surface mount options. Consider the physical size constraints imposed by the axial lead and eyelet structure during PCB or panel layout planning.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 4601 series of discoidal EMI filters from Tusonix. These components are engineered for high-power applications where traditional capacitors may fail due to current stress. The series offers various capacitance values tailored for different filtering needs while maintaining consistent mechanical mounting standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Tusonix 4601 series variants with similar capacitance and current ratings. Cross-brand replacements must match the 2.4µF capacitance, 15 A current handling, and axial bushing form factor. Verify electrical parameters and mechanical dimensions before substitution.
