General Purpose RFI Power Line Filters – Ideal for High Impedance Load
K Series
UL Recognized
CSA Certified
VDE Approved*
VK6
VK7 / EK7
VK1 / EK1
VK3 / EK3
K Series
• Suitable for high impedance loads
• Well suited to applications where pulsed,
continuous and/or intermittent RFI interference
is present
• EK models meet the very low leakage current
requirements for VDE portable equipment and
non-patient care medical equipment
• Available with ground line inductor (choke)

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
√(85-Ta)/45
