FN2030A-20-06

Overview

The Schaffner FN2030A-20-06 is a single-phase EMI power line filter rated for 250 VAC and 20 A. Designed for chassis mounting, it utilizes screw terminals for secure electrical connections. The component operates within a frequency range of DC to 400 Hz and functions reliably across a temperature span of -25°C to +100°C. It features a metal enclosure to ensure optimal earth grounding and high-frequency performance. Key specifications include a leakage current of 1.41 mA and compliance with UL, CSA, and IEC/EN standards.

Feature Summary

• Metal case construction ensures optimum connection to earth ground and supports high-frequency noise attenuation.

Applications

• Single-phase AC/DC power line filtering
• Chassis-mounted electronic equipment noise suppression

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific terminal type and current rating against system requirements before procurement. Confirm that the chassis mounting dimensions and screw terminal configuration match the available installation space. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions of the target application to maintain filter performance and safety compliance.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a robust, chassis-mount solution is required for single-phase applications up to 20 A. The metal housing provides superior grounding compared to plastic alternatives, enhancing high-frequency performance. Verify that the screw terminal interface suits the wiring harness and that the physical footprint fits the designated enclosure area.

Part Context

This component belongs to the FN2030 series of single-phase EMI filters manufactured by Schaffner EMC Inc., now part of TE Connectivity. The series is characterized by its use of metal cases for improved grounding and high-frequency attenuation capabilities. These filters are engineered for reliable operation in demanding industrial and commercial environments requiring effective conducted noise suppression.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same family include FN2030A-10-06 for lower current requirements and FN2030A-3-06 for minimal load applications. For higher current needs, consider models such as FN2030-20-08, though terminal types may differ. Always verify pinout compatibility and mounting hole patterns when substituting.
