RT8121-50-8M6

Overview

The Schaffner RT8121-50-8M6 is a common mode choke from the Nano series, designed for electromagnetic interference suppression. It features a horizontal configuration with PCB terminal terminations. The component has a maximum operating voltage of 300 VDC and a current rating of 50 A. Its inductance value is 8.6 mH. The device supports two lines and is constructed to deliver higher performance than previous versions while retaining the same mechanical volume.

Feature Summary

• Delivers enhanced electromagnetic interference suppression performance compared to prior iterations within the same physical footprint.
• Utilizes a horizontal design with printed circuit board terminal connections for direct integration.

Applications

• Power supply input filtering
• Electromagnetic compatibility enhancement in electronic equipment
• Common mode noise reduction in DC circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required inductance and current ratings for your application. Confirm that the PCB terminal style aligns with your board layout requirements. Ensure compliance with relevant safety standards if used in regulated environments. Check for any recent product change notifications regarding packaging or material composition before placing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high current handling up to 50 A is required alongside significant common mode noise attenuation. The 8.6 mH inductance provides substantial impedance to high-frequency interference. Consider the horizontal orientation and PCB mounting constraints during the mechanical design phase to ensure proper fit and thermal management.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Schaffner RT Series N common mode chokes. This series is engineered to provide superior electromagnetic interference filtering capabilities. The design maintains consistent mechanical dimensions across variants, allowing for potential upgrades without altering the physical enclosure or mounting structure of the host device.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Schaffner documentation for verified substitute part numbers within the RT series. Ensure any replacement maintains the 50 A current rating and 8.6 mH inductance specifications. Verify that the terminal type and mounting orientation remain compatible with the existing printed circuit board design.
