M15733/33-0001

Overview

The M15733/33-0001 is a MIL-DTL-55684 qualified EMI feedthrough filter manufactured by Tusonix, a subsidiary of CTS Electronic Components. It features a Pi-filter circuit topology designed for high-performance noise suppression in critical applications. The component utilizes a custom capacitance value of 1750 pF to achieve specific attenuation characteristics. It is constructed with a chassis-mount configuration and includes UNF-2A threading for secure panel installation. This filter is rated for operation within standard military temperature ranges and provides robust electromagnetic interference protection for sensitive electronic systems.

Feature Summary

• MIL-DTL-55684 qualified reliability for defense and aerospace environments
• Pi-filter topology providing enhanced high-frequency noise attenuation
• Chassis-mount design with UNF-2A threaded interface for secure integration

Applications

• Military communication equipment requiring certified EMI suppression
• Aerospace avionics systems subject to strict electromagnetic compatibility standards
• High-reliability industrial control panels exposed to significant electrical noise

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact capacitance tolerance and voltage rating against the official datasheet before procurement, as custom variants may exist within this series. Confirm that the UNF-2A thread specification matches your chassis mounting requirements. Ensure compliance with MIL-DTL-55684 quality standards is explicitly stated in the purchase order documentation to guarantee authenticity and traceability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when MIL-DTL-55684 qualification is mandatory for the application. The 1750 pF capacitance value offers a specific balance between low-pass filtering and DC leakage current considerations. Compare the physical dimensions and mounting hole patterns against available space constraints. Consider the thermal performance at maximum operating temperatures if installed in enclosed enclosures without active cooling.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Tusonix MIL-DTL-55684 feedthrough capacitor family, which provides standardized solutions for military electronics. The M15733 designation indicates a specific form factor and terminal configuration within the broader CTS product line. Similar parts in the series vary primarily in capacitance values and voltage ratings while maintaining consistent mechanical and environmental qualifications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must meet MIL-DTL-55684 specifications. Verify equivalent capacitance (1750 pF) and UNF-2A threading. Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering MIL-spec feedthrough capacitors only if they provide full parametric equivalence and certification.
