5500.202

Overview

The SCHURTER Inc. 5500.202 is a single-stage power line filter module designed for PCB mounting, optimized for standard or medical applications. It provides electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) filtering for AC power inputs. The component is rated for a continuous current of 4A and operates at voltages up to 250VAC. It features a compact form factor suitable for space-constrained designs and includes integrated safety capacitors and inductors to attenuate conducted interference on the power line.

Feature Summary

• Single-stage EMI/EMC filtering architecture
• Optimized for medical equipment standards
• PCB mount configuration for direct integration
• Integrated common mode choke and X/Y capacitors

Applications

• Medical diagnostic equipment
• Patient monitoring systems
• Industrial control panels
• Consumer electronics with strict EMC requirements

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific variant matches the required current rating and voltage class for your application. Confirm compliance with relevant medical safety standards if used in healthcare devices. Check for any recent product change notifications regarding component updates or end-of-life status before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact, single-stage solution is sufficient for noise reduction. Ensure the PCB layout supports the thermal requirements and mechanical stress of the mounted component. Compare against multi-stage alternatives if higher attenuation levels are necessary for stringent regulatory environments.

Part Context

This component belongs to Schurter's 5500 series of power line filters, which are widely used in global electronic equipment. The series offers various current ratings and mounting options, providing designers with flexible solutions for meeting international EMC directives such as CISPR and IEC standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other single-stage PCB-mount filters from Schurter with identical pinouts and electrical characteristics. Cross-reference part numbers like 5500.2003 for similar current ratings. Verify that any substitute meets the same safety certifications and physical dimensions.
