RPM8500-50-S

Overview

The Astrodyne TDI RPM8500-50-S is a MIL/COTS three-phase delta EMI power line filter designed for high-performance applications. It features a two-stage filtering architecture to ensure effective electromagnetic interference suppression in demanding environments. The unit supports a rated voltage of 480 VAC and handles a continuous current of 50 A. It utilizes a chassis mount installation style with stud-type terminations for secure integration into industrial or military systems operating at standard 50 Hz or 60 Hz frequencies.

Feature Summary

• Two-stage filtering architecture for enhanced noise attenuation
• Designed for MIL/COTS compliance standards
• Three-phase delta configuration for industrial power systems

Applications

• Military electronic equipment power conditioning
• COTS industrial control systems requiring EMI suppression
• High-current three-phase power distribution units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for precise insertion loss curves and mechanical dimensions before finalizing design integration. Confirm that the stud termination specifications match your panel mounting hardware requirements. Ensure the 480 VAC rating aligns with your system's nominal voltage levels to maintain operational safety and regulatory compliance.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust two-stage solution is required for three-phase delta systems handling up to 50 A. It is suitable for chassis-mounted installations where stud connections are preferred over quick-connect terminals. Consider this model for applications exceeding the capabilities of single-stage filters while maintaining compatibility with MIL/COTS environmental standards.
