RG1988-1

Overview

The Electrocube RG1988-1 is a single-phase RC network featuring stranded wire leads. It incorporates a 0.25 µF capacitor with ±20% tolerance and a 33 Ohm resistor rated at 0.5 Watts. The component supports voltage ratings of 250 VAC and 600 VDC, utilizing #18 AWG MTW leads.

Feature Summary

• Single-phase RC network configuration
• Stranded wire lead construction
• High voltage DC rating capability

Applications

• EMI suppression circuits
• Power line filtering
• Motor drive protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific lead length suffix (e.g., -6 for 6 inches) required for your assembly, as the base model number may not specify length. Confirm that the 0.5W resistor power rating and 600VDC capacitor voltage rating align with your circuit's peak surge and continuous operating conditions to ensure reliability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed RC time constant is needed for single-phase AC or DC line filtering. Ensure the 33 Ohm resistance value matches your impedance requirements and that the physical size accommodates your enclosure constraints given the stranded wire leads.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Electrocube RG1988 series of single-phase RC networks designed for EMI suppression. These components are typically used in industrial and commercial applications requiring robust filtering on power lines, offering a compact solution compared to discrete component assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 0.25 µF capacitance, 33 Ohm resistance, and 600VDC rating. Verify lead type and length compatibility. Generic RC filters may lack the specific ruggedization and lead finish of the Electrocube original.
