RP120-50-100-S

Overview

The RP120-50-100-S is a single-phase, single-stage power line filter from the Astrodyne TDI RP120 series. It features a medium-high performance design rated for 50 A current and 250 VAC voltage. The unit utilizes a threaded post (M5) stud mounting style with quick-connect or stud termination options depending on specific configuration. It operates at standard frequencies of 50 Hz and 60 Hz. Key electrical parameters include a capacitance of 100 nF and a maximum leakage current of 800 uA. The filter complies with UL, CSA, and EN safety standards.

Feature Summary

• Single-stage filtering architecture for effective EMI/EMI suppression
• High current handling capability suitable for demanding power applications
• Robust chassis mount construction with threaded post interface
• Compliance with major international safety certification standards

Applications

• Industrial machinery power input stages
• Medical equipment power supplies
• Commercial IT infrastructure power conditioning
• Test and measurement instrument power lines

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific termination type required for your assembly, as the RP120 series may offer variations in terminal configurations such as quick connect versus stud mounts. Confirm that the chassis mounting hole pattern aligns with your enclosure design prior to installation. Ensure the operating environment temperature remains within the specified range to maintain filter efficacy and longevity. Cross-reference the exact datasheet version for any updates to compliance certifications or mechanical dimensions.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a single-phase solution is required for currents up to 50 A. The 100 nF capacitance value provides balanced attenuation for common mode noise. Consider the physical dimensions and stud mounting requirements during the mechanical design phase. This component is appropriate for applications needing certified safety compliance without requiring three-phase filtering capabilities.

Part Context

This component belongs to the RP120 series, which represents Astrodyne TDI's medium-to-high performance line of single-phase filters. The series is designed for general industrial and commercial use where reliable noise suppression is critical. It sits between lower-capacity compact filters and higher-power multi-stage units, offering a balance of size and performance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include models with adjusted current ratings such as the RP120-35-100-S or RP120-20-4.7-QD, provided the electrical requirements are met. Verify that any replacement maintains the same mounting style and voltage rating to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
