RG1983-10

Overview

The Electrocube RG1983-10 is a single-phase RC EMI filter designed for low-pass noise suppression. It integrates a 470 Ohm resistor and a 0.5 µF capacitor within a radial leaded package. The unit operates at a rated voltage of 300V DC. Key electrical parameters include a capacitance tolerance of ±10% and a resistance value of 680 Ohms as per specific manufacturer documentation, with physical dimensions of 1.00 inch length by 0.38 inch width.

Feature Summary

• Single-phase RC network configuration for EMI/RFI suppression
• Radial leaded construction for through-hole mounting
• Low-pass filtering characteristics optimized for noise reduction

Applications

• Power supply input filtering
• Electronic equipment EMI mitigation
• Industrial control circuit noise suppression

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the RG1983-10 to confirm exact resistance values, as documentation may list 470 Ohms or 680 Ohms. Ensure the 300V DC rating meets your circuit requirements. Confirm radial lead spacing matches your PCB layout before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed RC time constant is required for single-phase line filtering. Compare the 0.5 µF capacitance against other series variants like RG1983-11 which offers 1.0 µF. Ensure the 300V DC rating exceeds your peak line voltage to maintain reliability under operating conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Electrocube RG series of single-phase RC networks. These components are standardized passive filters used primarily in AC power line applications to attenuate high-frequency interference. The series offers various combinations of resistance and capacitance values tailored for different noise profiles.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the RG1983 series, such as RG1983-11, if higher capacitance is acceptable. Verify that any replacement maintains the 300V DC rating and radial form factor. Cross-reference resistance values carefully to ensure impedance matching.
