M15733/61-0012

Overview

The M15733/61-0012 is an EMI feedthrough filter manufactured by Tusonix, a subsidiary of CTS Electronic Components. It belongs to the 4253 series and functions as an UNF-2A EMI Pi Filter. The component is identified by the manufacturer part number 4253-501 and the Mouser number 800-M15733/61-0012. It is designed for chassis mounting applications requiring electromagnetic interference suppression.

Feature Summary

• Provides electromagnetic interference (EMI) filtering through a Pi filter topology.
• Features UNF-2A threaded mounting interface for secure installation.

Applications

• Chassis-mounted electronic equipment requiring EMI suppression
• Military or aerospace systems utilizing MIL-DTL-55342 style connectors
• Power supply input/output filtering in shielded enclosures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific capacitance and voltage ratings against the official datasheet before procurement, as these parameters define the filter's performance characteristics. Confirm that the UNF-2A thread size matches the panel cutout requirements. Ensure compatibility with the operating temperature range specified in the technical documentation for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a Pi filter configuration is required for high-frequency noise attenuation in chassis-mounted applications. The UNF-2A thread standard ensures mechanical compatibility with corresponding MIL-DTL-55342 receptacles. Evaluate the electrical specifications against the system's voltage and current demands to ensure reliable operation under load conditions.

Part Context

This part is part of the Tusonix 4253 series of EMI feedthrough filters. It is commercially available under the manufacturer part number 4253-501. The component is categorized under EMI Feedthrough Filters and is typically supplied in bulk packaging. It serves as a direct replacement for components defined by the MIL-DTL-55342 specification variant ending in 0012.

Replacement Considerations

The M15733/61-0012 is functionally equivalent to the Tusonix part number 4253-501. When substituting, verify that the replacement unit maintains the same UNF-2A threading and Pi filter topology to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing assemblies.
