EDISON, N.J., June 2007 — Schaffner EMC, a leading provider of EMI/RFI components and solutions for power quality, now offers a compact new family of power entry modules that enhances its existing IEC inlet filter ranges and provides more electrical and mechanical options to chose from.

The new FN 9263 series combines an IEC inlet module and an EMC filter with a single pole rocker switch. The filters’ small housings, designed to fit a 1U rack, make them ideal for devices with limited space such as portable electrical equipment, small- to medium-sized machines and household equipment and single-phase power supplies that require low-cost solutions. The filters provide excellent symmetrical and asymmetrical attenuation performance and are mechanically compatible with Schaffner’s FN 9260 series, which features fuses instead of switches.

Specifications for the RoHS-compliant FN 9263 filter series include a maximum continuous operating voltage of 250 VAC, a rated current of 1 A to 10 A at a maximum of 40°C (104°F) and an operating frequency of dc to 400 Hz. The filters are available in a variety of mechanical mounting versions including screw mount and snap-in versions for horizontal and vertical mounting.

They are UL, CSA and EN rated and meet all other necessary safety requisites.
