9945, KBRF-200A, CE Approved AC Line Filter (Class A) for SCR Controls
KBRF-200A Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Filter
The KBRF-200A is a Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) filter designed to suppress electronic interference generated by motor speed controls, including those using SCRs (Silicon Controlled Rectifiers) or transistor-based switching devices. These components operate by rapidly switching on and off, which can produce high-frequency interference.
Key Features & Benefits
Purpose
The KBRF-200A helps prevent high-frequency interference (RFI) from:
-
Being conducted through AC power lines
-
Radiating into the air and interfering with nearby electronic equipment
Interference Range
-
Most prominent in the AM radio frequency band (0.5 MHz – 1.5 MHz)
-
Often unnoticed, but can affect sensitive electronic devices
Function & Compliance
-
Limits RFI to acceptable levels as defined by CE Council Directive 89/336/EEC on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
-
Helps ensure compliance with European EMI standards
