5500.211

Overview

The Schurter 5500.211 is a single-phase EMC/EMI power line filter designed for chassis mounting with PC pin through-hole termination. It operates at 50 Hz and 60 Hz frequencies with a voltage rating of 250 VAC. The component provides a current capacity of 16 A and utilizes a single-stage filtering architecture to suppress electromagnetic interference on AC power lines.

Feature Summary

• Single-stage EMI suppression for AC power applications
• Chassis mount construction with printed circuit board pins
• Designed for standard 50 Hz and 60 Hz mains frequencies

Applications

• Industrial equipment power input stages
• Medical device power conditioning
• General purpose AC power line filtering

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for exact leakage current and attenuation values, as these parameters vary by configuration. Confirm that the PC pin pitch matches the target PCB layout before integration. Ensure the installation environment supports the required chassis mounting method and thermal conditions specified in the official documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16 A current rating and single-stage filtering are sufficient for the application's noise reduction requirements. The PC pin termination is suitable for automated assembly processes. Consider higher stage counts or different termination types if mechanical constraints or stricter emission limits apply.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Schurter 5500 series of power line filters, which offers various configurations for single-phase applications. The series includes options with different current ratings, stage counts, and termination styles to accommodate diverse industrial and commercial power supply designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the manufacturer's cross-reference guide for verified substitutes. Alternative components must match the 16 A rating, 250 VAC voltage, and single-stage topology while maintaining compatible PC pin dimensions.
