• Radial leaded construction for through-hole mounting
• High-current capability suitable for power line applications
• Unshielded wirewound core design

Fixed Inductors Applications

• Power line chokes
• General purpose inductor circuits
• High current filtering applications

Fixed Inductors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific electrical parameters against the official manufacturer datasheet prior to procurement. Confirm that the radial vertical cylinder package dimensions align with the target PCB layout requirements. Ensure the 55 A current rating and 1.7 mOhm DC resistance specifications meet the system's thermal and efficiency constraints for reliable operation.

Fixed Inductors Selection Notes

Select this component when high current handling is required alongside low impedance characteristics. The unshielded design may necessitate careful placement to avoid magnetic interference with nearby sensitive components. Verify that the radial form factor fits the assembly process and mechanical constraints of the intended enclosure or board space.

Fixed Inductors Part Context

This part belongs to the RL-1256 series of radial leaded power line chokes from Renco Electronics. The series typically offers various inductance values optimized for power supply filtering. The RL-1256-8-10 specifically targets applications requiring robust current capacity with minimal resistive loss in the inductive path.

Fixed Inductors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other high-current radial chokes if sourcing is limited. Ensure substitute parts match the 10 µH inductance tolerance and 55 A saturation current limits. Verify that alternative packages maintain compatible pin spacing and height restrictions.
