ZCAT2436-1330A-BKJ

Overview

The TDK ZCAT2436-1330A-BKJ is a snap-on ferrite core designed for cable noise suppression. It features an internal diameter of 13 mm and external dimensions of 35 mm x 17.4 mm x 19.5 mm. The component utilizes TDK's proprietary 30 material, offering impedance values of 30 Ω at 25 MHz, 30 Ω at 50 MHz, 100 Ω at 100 MHz, 80 Ω at 300 MHz, and 80 Ω at 500 MHz. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and complies with RoHS and REACH standards.

Feature Summary

• Snap-on hinged design allows installation on existing cables without disconnection.
• Utilizes TDK proprietary 30 material for effective high-frequency noise attenuation.
• Round cross-section geometry supports uniform magnetic flux distribution.

Applications

• EMI suppression for power and signal cables in industrial equipment.
• Noise reduction for data lines in computing hardware.
• Electromagnetic compatibility enhancement in automotive wiring harnesses.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (BKJ) against official TDK documentation to confirm exact physical attributes and compliance status. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability for the TDK brand. Cross-reference the impedance specifications with the target frequency requirements of the application to confirm suitability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when retrofitting EMI filters onto cables with diameters up to 13 mm. The snap-on mechanism is critical for applications requiring maintenance access or post-assembly modification. Consider the 30 material composition for its specific permeability characteristics in the 100 MHz to 500 MHz range compared to other ferrite materials.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ZCAT series of cable ferrites from TDK Corporation. The series is characterized by round, snap-on cores designed for easy installation on single cables. The ZCAT line is widely used in various electronic industries for common mode noise suppression where space constraints or assembly flexibility are primary considerations.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided source material. Verify compatibility with alternative snap-on ferrites based on matching internal diameter, impedance curves, and material properties before substitution.
