RP230-3.5-4.7-W

Overview

The Astrodyne TDI RP230-3.5-4.7-W is a single-phase, two-stage power line filter designed for high-performance electromagnetic interference suppression. It features a rated current of 3.5 A and a voltage rating of 250 VAC. The unit incorporates a capacitance value of 4.7 nF and maintains a leakage current of 400 uA. Designed for operation at 50 Hz or 60 Hz, it utilizes wire termination and chassis mount installation. The physical dimensions are 65 mm in length and 40 mm in height. It complies with UL, CSA, and EN standards.

Feature Summary

• Dual-stage filtering architecture for enhanced noise attenuation
• Chassis mount design with wire termination for secure integration
• Compliance with major international safety certifications including UL, CSA, and EN

Applications

• Medical equipment power input stages
• Industrial control systems requiring EMI suppression
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'W' corresponds to wire termination when confirming orders against datasheets. Ensure the 3.5 A current rating aligns with the system load requirements. Confirm that the 4.7 nF capacitance meets leakage current constraints for the intended application environment. Cross-reference the mounting hole pattern with the mechanical drawing before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-stage performance is required within a compact chassis-mount form factor. The 3.5 A rating suits moderate power applications where space is limited. Verify that the wire termination style matches existing harness configurations. Consider the 400 uA leakage current limit if connecting to sensitive patient-connected medical devices or strict safety grounds.

Part Context

This model belongs to the RP230 series from Astrodyne TDI, which focuses on high-performance single-phase filters. The series offers various current ratings and termination options to accommodate different enclosure designs. The RP230 series is engineered for applications demanding reliable EMI/RFI reduction in constrained spaces.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other RP230 variants with matching current and capacitance values but different terminations, such as RP230-3.5-4.7-QD for quick connect terminals. Ensure any replacement maintains the same two-stage topology and compliance certifications.
