RP240-16-4.7-S

Overview

The RP240-16-4.7-S is a high-performance dual-stage power line filter manufactured by Astrodyne TDI. It is designed for single-phase applications with a rated current of 16A and a capacitance value of 4.7nF. The component utilizes a chassis mount installation style with stud-type terminations. This filter operates at standard frequencies of 50Hz and 60Hz and is rated for a voltage of 250VAC. It belongs to the RP240 series, which is characterized by its dual-stage filtering architecture intended for superior electromagnetic interference suppression in demanding electrical environments.

Feature Summary

• Dual-stage filtering architecture for enhanced noise attenuation
• High-performance design optimized for strict EMI/RFI compliance
• Robust chassis mount construction with stud terminations

Applications

• Industrial machinery power input stages
• Medical equipment power conditioning
• Telecommunications infrastructure filters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the RP240-16-4.7-S to confirm exact leakage current limits and insertion loss curves. Ensure that the mounting hardware matches the stud termination specifications. Confirm regulatory compliance certifications required for the target market before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when dual-stage attenuation is required for single-phase lines carrying up to 16A. The stud termination style dictates the mechanical integration method. Compare against single-stage alternatives if space constraints or lower cost are primary drivers, noting that dual-stage designs offer superior performance at higher frequencies.

Part Context

This component is part of the Astrodyne TDI RP240 series, which focuses on high-performance filtering solutions. The series distinguishes itself through dual-stage topologies that provide greater isolation between input and output compared to single-stage units. It serves as a specialized solution for applications requiring stringent emission control within compact chassis-mounted form factors.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 16A rating, 4.7nF capacitance, and dual-stage topology. Verify that alternative models support stud terminations and identical voltage ratings to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility without redesigning the mounting interface.
