ZCAT2017-0930B

Overview

The TDK ZCAT2017-0930B is a two-piece hinged ferrite clamp filter designed for round cables with a maximum diameter of 9mm. It measures 21mm in length, 17mm in width, and 9mm in height. The component provides an impedance of 50Ω at frequencies between 10MHz and 100MHz. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and features a gray case.

Feature Summary

• Hinged two-piece design allows installation on existing cables without disconnection
• Clamp-on construction eliminates the need for soldering or permanent mounting
• Provides electromagnetic interference suppression for round cable applications

Applications

• Cable noise suppression in electronic equipment
• EMI filtering for signal and power lines
• Electromagnetic compatibility enhancement in industrial systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix B against official TDK documentation to confirm case color and exact dimensional tolerances. Ensure the selected variant matches the required operating temperature range and impedance characteristics for the target frequency band. Confirm package quantities and lead times directly with authorized distributors as these details are subject to change.

Selection Notes

Select this component when retrofitting ferrite suppression onto pre-assembled cables is required. The hinged design facilitates maintenance and modification of existing wiring harnesses. Verify that the cable diameter does not exceed the 9mm maximum inner dimension to ensure proper fit and effective magnetic coupling for noise attenuation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TDK ZCAT series of clamp filters. These components are engineered for easy integration into cable assemblies where traditional snap-on cores are impractical due to connector presence. The series offers standardized dimensions and impedance profiles for common EMI mitigation needs across various industries.

Replacement Considerations

Consult TDK's official cross-reference guides for verified substitutes. Generic ferrite clamps may differ in material composition, impedance curves, and thermal stability. Ensure any replacement maintains the same physical envelope and electrical performance specifications.
