FN356-36-24

Overview

The Schaffner FN356-36-24 is a three-phase power line filter designed for general-purpose electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression. It supports a rated current of 36 A and operates at voltages up to 440 VAC or 250 VAC depending on the phase configuration. The unit features a single-stage filtering architecture with chassis mount installation and terminal block termination. It includes neutral connection capability, making it suitable for four-wire systems operating at 50/60 Hz frequencies.

Feature Summary

• Provides general-purpose EMI/EMC filtering for three-phase electrical circuits
• Supports four-wire system configurations including neutral connections
• Utilizes a single-stage design for effective noise attenuation
• Engineered for robust chassis mounting applications

Applications

• Industrial machinery requiring three-phase power conditioning
• General-purpose EMC compliance for four-wire distribution systems
• Equipment sensitive to conducted electromagnetic interference

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and certification status (UL, CSA, ENEC) prior to procurement. Confirm that the terminal block interface matches existing wiring infrastructure. Ensure the 36 A current rating aligns with the maximum load requirements of the target application to prevent thermal overload during continuous operation.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a single-stage solution is sufficient for the required attenuation levels. Compare against the FN356-36-33 variant if different terminal configurations are needed. Ensure the chassis mount footprint fits within the available enclosure space. Validate that the leakage current specifications meet safety standards for the intended medical or sensitive electronic environments.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Schaffner FN356 series, which focuses on high-current three-phase filtering solutions. The series is widely used in industrial automation and power distribution sectors. TE Connectivity acquired Schaffner, integrating these filters into broader electromagnetic compatibility portfolios for global manufacturing support.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with alternative models such as the FN356-36-33 based on terminal style differences rather than assuming direct interchangeability without schematic review.
