RCS1G-6

Overview

The RCS1G-6 is a single-phase transient voltage filter module manufactured by R-K Electronics, Inc. Designed for 120VAC operation at 50 to 60Hz, this component utilizes an RC network topology to suppress electrical noise. It features a capacitance value of 0.47 microfarads and a resistance of 100 ohms. The unit is equipped with 6-inch wire leads for direct circuit integration.

Feature Summary

• Transient voltage suppression using RC network architecture
• Single-phase configuration for standard AC power lines
• Integrated wire leads for simplified installation

Applications

• Protection of sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients
• EMI/EMI filtering in single-phase power circuits
• Industrial control panel noise reduction

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix variant (e.g., V6IN) against the required lead length and impedance specifications. Confirm that the 120VAC rating aligns with the target system voltage. Ensure compatibility with the 0.47MFD capacitance requirement for the intended noise suppression application before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a discrete RC network solution is preferred over integrated filter modules. The fixed 100-ohm resistance and 0.47-microfarad capacitance define the cutoff characteristics. Ensure the physical form factor with 6-inch leads fits within the enclosure constraints of the assembly design.

Part Context

This component belongs to the RCS Series of RC networks produced by R-K Electronics. These filters are categorized under power line filter modules and transient voltage protection devices. The series provides standardized solutions for mitigating electrical interference in low-voltage AC applications.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other R-K Electronics RCS series parts if lead lengths or mounting styles differ. Verify that substitute components maintain the identical 0.47MFD capacitance and 100-ohm resistance values to ensure consistent filtering performance.
