AHM-01

Overview

The Ohmite AHM-01 is a single-phase EMI/EMI line filter module designed for medical applications requiring high performance with no leakage currents. It meets the requirements of the IEC 60601-1 Standard. The unit features a dual-stage filter type and operates at a maximum voltage of 250 VAC. It supports a rated current of 1A at 40 degrees Celsius and functions within a 50/60Hz frequency range. Termination is provided via quick connect tabs measuring 6.3x0.8 mm.

Feature Summary

• Designed for medical applications requiring high performance with no leakage currents
• Meets the requirements of the IEC 60601-1 Standard
• Dual-stage filter configuration for effective noise suppression

Applications

• Medical equipment power line filtering
• IEC 60601-1 compliant device integration
• Single-phase AC power input protection

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application requires compliance with IEC 60601-1 standards, as this component is specifically engineered for medical environments with strict leakage current limitations. Confirm that the termination style matches the PCB or wiring harness design, as the AHM-01 utilizes quick connect tabs. Ensure the operating environment does not exceed the rated current of 1A at 40 degrees Celsius to maintain performance integrity.

Selection Notes

Select the AHM-01 when medical safety standards are mandatory and low leakage current is critical. This model is suitable for single-phase systems requiring dual-stage attenuation. Consider the physical dimensions and tab spacing if space constraints exist. Compare against other AHM series variants if higher current ratings such as 10A are needed, ensuring the electrical parameters align with the system's power requirements.

Part Context

The AHM-01 belongs to the AHM Series manufactured by Ohmite Mfg Co. This series is distinct from the AHML Series, though both target medical applications. The AHM-01 represents the lower current variant within the lineup, offering a compact solution for sensitive electronic circuits where electromagnetic interference must be minimized without compromising patient safety standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the AHM series include the AHM-10 for higher current capacity (10A). Verify that any replacement maintains the dual-stage architecture and quick connect termination style to ensure mechanical compatibility.
