• Specifically developed for switching power
supplies
• High attenuation for common and differential
mode interference
• Effective from 10kHz to 30MHz
• Optimized for attenuation and size
• 3 or 6A versions available with IEC inlet

Rated Current:
Operating Ambient Temperature Range
(at rated current Ir):
-10°C to +40°C
In an ambient temperature (Ta) higher than +40°C
the maximum operating current (Io) is calculated as
follows: Io = Ir
