RV8541-50-S02

Overview

The RV8541-50-S02 is a vertical through-hole common mode choke from the Schaffner RV8541 series, utilizing nanocrystalline core technology. It features four lines with an inductance of 230 µH at 100 kHz and a tolerance of 1%. The component supports a maximum DC current of 50 A and has a maximum DC resistance of 1 mΩ. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes nanocrystalline core material for high-performance electromagnetic interference suppression
• Designed as a four-line common mode filter for multi-phase applications
• Vertical PCB mount configuration with through-hole termination

Applications

• Three-phase power filtering systems
• Industrial motor drive EMC protection
• High-current DC link noise suppression

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix S02 against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm pinout orientation and mechanical dimensions. Ensure the selected variant matches the required 50A current rating and 230µH inductance specifications for your circuit design before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high current handling capacity of 50A is required alongside significant common mode noise reduction. The nanocrystalline core offers superior performance compared to traditional ferrite cores in high-frequency applications. Verify thermal management requirements given the low DC resistance and high current capability.

Part Context

This part belongs to the RV8541 series of current-compensated chokes manufactured by Schaffner EMC Inc., now part of TE Connectivity. The series is characterized by nanocrystalline core construction, offering compact size and high efficiency for EMC filtering in demanding industrial environments.

Replacement Considerations

RV8541-25-S02 shares the same form factor but has a lower current rating. RV8541-50-S12 offers different inductance characteristics. Verify electrical parameters and mechanical fit before substitution.
