RP186-3-2.2-W

Overview

The RP186-3-2.2-W is a single-phase EMC/EMI line filter module manufactured by Astrodyne TDI. It features a single-stage design rated for 3 A current and 250 V input voltage at 50/60 Hz frequencies. The unit utilizes an IEC 320-C14 connector interface with wire leads for integration. Key electrical specifications include a capacitance value of 2.2 nF. The physical height of the component is specified as 30 mm.

Feature Summary

• Single-stage electromagnetic interference suppression architecture
• IEC 320-C14 inlet connector compatibility
• Wire lead termination configuration

Applications

• Electronic equipment requiring single-phase power filtering
• Medical device power supply units
• Industrial control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required current rating of 3 A and voltage rating of 250 V. Confirm the presence of wire leads versus other termination styles if PCB mounting is not intended. Ensure the IEC 320-C14 inlet compatibility aligns with the mating cable or chassis requirements. Cross-reference the 2.2 nF capacitance value against circuit design constraints to ensure proper EMI performance characteristics are met.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, single-phase filter is needed for low-current applications up to 3 A. The 2.2 nF capacitance value suggests suitability for general EMI suppression rather than high-capacitance leakage-sensitive environments. Consider the wire lead format for ease of assembly in non-PCB mounted scenarios. Evaluate the 30 mm height constraint within the available enclosure space.

Part Context

This model belongs to the RP186 series of ultra-high-performance single-stage filters from Astrodyne TDI. The series offers various current ratings, including higher capacity options like 16 A variants. The suffix 'W' typically denotes the wire lead configuration, distinguishing it from panel mount or PCB mount versions within the same family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other RP186 series models with adjusted current ratings, such as RP186-6-2.2-QD, provided the interface and capacitance values remain compatible. Verify that alternative components maintain the 250 V rating and single-phase topology.
