RP2180-6-1-QD

Overview

The Astrodyne TDI RP2180-6-1-QD is a single-phase, single-stage power line filter designed for chassis mounting. It features a rated voltage of 250 VAC and a current rating of 6 A at operating frequencies of 50 Hz and 60 Hz. The unit utilizes quick connect tab terminals for electrical termination. Key electrical specifications include a capacitance value of 1 nF and a maximum leakage current of 800 uA. The component operates within a temperature range of -25°C to +40°C and measures 37 mm in length by 21 mm in height.

Feature Summary

• Ultra-compact physical design suitable for space-constrained chassis installations
• Single-stage filtering architecture providing efficient EMI/EMI suppression
• Quick connect terminal interface for simplified wiring integration

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring compact EMC filtering
• Medical equipment power input stages
• Telecommunications infrastructure power supplies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific capacitance value (1 nF) against your circuit requirements, as this variant differs from other RP2180 models with different capacitance ratings. Confirm that the 6 A current rating aligns with your system's load profile. Ensure the quick connect tab dimensions match your mating connectors. Check compliance certifications relevant to your target market before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-profile, single-phase filter is required for 6 A applications. The 1 nF capacitance offers specific attenuation characteristics compared to higher capacitance variants. Consider the -25°C to +40°C operating range for environmental suitability. The chassis mount style dictates the mechanical integration method within the enclosure.

Part Context

This component belongs to the RP2180 series of ultra-compact single-stage power line filters from Astrodyne TDI. The series includes various current ratings and capacitance options, such as the RP2180-3-0-QD and RP2180-10-1-QD. The RP2180-6-1-QD specifically addresses the need for moderate current handling in a minimal footprint form factor.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include the RP2180-6-0-QD, which shares the 6 A rating but has 0 nF capacitance. Verify if the absence of Y-capacitance in the 0 nF variant meets your leakage current or safety isolation requirements. No other cross-series replacements are confirmed without detailed parameter matching.
