RG1676-2

Overview

The Electrocube RG1676-2 is a single-phase RC EMI/RFI filter designed for surge suppression and arc noise reduction in heavy-duty industrial applications. This first-order low-pass network features a resistance of 100 Ohms and a capacitance of 0.5 microfarads. It supports a maximum voltage of 1000 VDC with a power rating of 10 watts. The component utilizes a block-style construction with four leads for panel mounting, ensuring reliable performance in environments requiring robust electromagnetic interference mitigation.

Feature Summary

• Designed for arc and noise suppression in heavy-duty applications
• Single-phase RC network configuration for EMI/RFI filtering
• Block-style construction with four lead terminals

Applications

• Industrial motor control circuits
• Heavy-duty power supply filtering
• Electromagnetic interference suppression in DC systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code against official manufacturer documentation to confirm electrical ratings and terminal configuration. Ensure compatibility with existing panel mounting hardware and thermal management requirements. Confirm that the 1000 VDC rating aligns with system operating conditions before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when heavy-duty arc suppression is required for single-phase DC circuits. The 10-watt power rating and 100-ohm resistance make it suitable for high-energy noise environments. Evaluate space constraints due to the block-style package and ensure adequate clearance for the four-lead terminal arrangement during installation.

Part Context

The RG1676 series comprises single-phase RC networks engineered for robust noise suppression. These components are distinct from general-purpose capacitors by their integrated resistor-capacitor topology optimized for transient energy dissipation. The series serves critical roles in protecting sensitive electronics from voltage spikes and radio frequency interference in demanding industrial settings.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with RG1676-1 or RG1676-7 only if capacitance values match application needs. Verify that substitute parts maintain equivalent voltage and power ratings. Ensure mechanical fitment matches the original block-style housing and lead spacing specifications.
