5500.2055

Overview

The SCHURTER 5500.2055 is a single-phase, two-stage EMC/EMI power line filter designed for chassis mounting. It supports voltage ratings of 125 VAC and 250 VAC with a current rating of 6 A at operating frequencies of 50 Hz and 60 Hz. The component utilizes quick connect terminals for circuit termination and exhibits a leakage current of 1.4 mA. Certified under UL standards, this filter belongs to the FMLB series and is engineered for effective noise suppression in AC power applications.

Feature Summary

• Two-stage filtering architecture for enhanced electromagnetic interference suppression
• Quick connect terminal interface for simplified circuit integration
• Chassis mount design for secure mechanical installation

Applications

• Industrial equipment power conditioning
• Medical device power supply filtering
• Commercial appliance noise reduction

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm exact leakage current values and certification marks. Ensure the application voltage does not exceed the rated 250 VAC limit. Confirm that the quick connect terminal dimensions match the mating connector specifications on the target PCB or wiring harness to ensure proper electrical contact and mechanical stability.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a two-stage attenuation profile is required for 6 A single-phase circuits. Compare against single-stage alternatives if space constraints are critical, noting that two-stage designs typically offer superior high-frequency noise rejection. Verify compliance requirements such as UL listing against specific regional regulatory standards before finalizing the design.

Part Context

This component is part of Schurter's broader portfolio of power line filters, specifically within the FMLB series. It serves as an EMI/EMI protection module intended to mitigate conducted emissions from switching power supplies and other electronic loads into the mains network.

Replacement Considerations

The 5500.2035 is a single-stage alternative within the same series offering similar current handling but different attenuation characteristics. The 5500.2044 is another two-stage option with lower leakage current (250 uA) but requires verification of inductance values and physical footprint compatibility.
