5500.2261

Overview

The Schurter 5500.2261 is a single-phase, two-stage RFI power line filter designed for DIN rail mounting in electrical switching and control cabinets. It features a metal housing and operates at 250 VAC with a 10 A current rating. Key electrical parameters include an inductance of 1 mH, X-capacitance (Cx) of 68 nF, and Y-capacitance (Cy) of 22 nF. The unit utilizes terminal block termination and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Two-stage filtering architecture for enhanced noise suppression
• DIN rail mounting configuration for industrial cabinet integration
• Metal housing construction for durability

Applications

• Electrical switching cabinets
• Control cabinets
• Industrial machinery power input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm exact mechanical dimensions and certification marks (UL, CSA, VDE). Ensure the terminal block type matches the existing wiring infrastructure. Confirm that the 10 A continuous current rating aligns with the load requirements of the protected circuit to prevent premature tripping or thermal issues.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, two-stage EMI solution is required for single-phase AC lines up to 250 VAC. The 10 A rating suits moderate-power industrial loads. Consider the DIN rail form factor if space constraints preclude chassis mounting. Verify that the 1 mH inductance provides sufficient attenuation for the specific noise spectrum present in the application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Schurter FMAB RAIL series, which specializes in single-phase RFI filters for industrial applications. The series is characterized by its DIN rail compatibility and robust metal enclosures, distinguishing it from general-purpose PCB-mounted filters or larger three-phase units.
