SCHURTER has expanded its power input module series C20F, which includes ground wire chokes, designed to suppress high-frequency interference on ground conductors. In addition, the new variant has a larger X capacitor for better symmetrical attenuation.

The C20F filter series combines IEC C20 electrical input sockets with high-quality power filters. The particularly wide metal flange is in contact with the surface of the housing in a large area, so as to achieve the best filtering and shielding.

The new model of the C20F appliance inlet filter is equipped with a grounding choke. In addition to the current compensating choke on the pole and neutral conductor, the line filter also has a second choke on the ground conductor. The grounding choke is located between the device plug and the filter output. Placing it directly on the input end of the power supply can ensure that high-frequency interference currents that may appear on the grounding conductor cannot pass through the housing to bypass the filter. Due to the grounded choke, medical filters (without Y capacitors) especially benefit from improved asymmetric attenuation in the higher frequency range.

The C20F filter series is available in a standard version or a medical version, and is used for equipment that requires particularly high noise immunity. These include IT or telecommunications systems that comply with IEC 92368-1 and medical equipment that comply with IEC 60601-1. This series is compatible with V-Lock device connection cables.

According to the IEC standard, the current of the C20F series is up to 16 A / 250 VAC, and according to the UL/CSA standard, the current is up to 20 A at 125/250 VAC. It provides ENEC, CQC and cURus certifications.
