RP2180-10-0-QD

Overview

The RP2180-10-0-QD is a single-phase, single-stage power line filter from the Astrodyne TDI RP2180 series. It features a 10 A current rating and a 250 VAC voltage rating for operation at 50/60 Hz. The unit utilizes quick connect terminals for circuit attachment and is designed for chassis or panel mounting. With zero nanofarads of capacitance, it minimizes leakage current to approximately 340 µA. The component measures 61 mm in length and complies with UL, CSA, and EN standards.

Feature Summary

• Ultra compact physical design suitable for space-constrained enclosures
• Single-stage filtering architecture for efficient EMI suppression
• Low leakage current characteristics ensuring operator safety

Applications

• Medical equipment power supplies
• Industrial control systems
• Telecommunications infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the RP2180-10-0-QD to confirm exact dimensional tolerances and terminal specifications before integration. Ensure that the installation environment remains within the specified operating temperature range. Confirm compliance requirements such as UL or EN certifications match the target market regulations. Cross-reference the quick-connect terminal type with mating connectors to ensure mechanical compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this model when low leakage current is critical for medical or sensitive electronic applications. The single-stage design offers a balance between size and performance for moderate noise environments. Verify that the 10 A rating exceeds the peak load requirements of the connected equipment. Consider the ultra-compact form factor if panel real estate is limited compared to larger series filters.

Part Context

This component belongs to the RP2180 series, which focuses on ultra-compact power line filtration. Unlike higher-capacitance variants in the same family, this specific part number specifies zero nanofarads of capacitance to achieve minimal leakage. It shares the series' general construction but differs significantly in electrical parameters from models like the RP2180-10-2.2-QD.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the RP2180 series include parts with similar current ratings but different capacitance values, such as RP2180-10-2.2-QD. However, these alternatives will exhibit higher leakage currents. Verify that any replacement maintains the required 10 A rating and quick-connect interface.
