SCHURTER FMBD EP EMC filter

More compact than ever, the FMBD EP is SCHURTER’s flagship double-stage filter series for three phases with neutral line systems, available in variants with high nominal voltages. It is suitable for applications with particularly high EMC emissions, including machines and systems for automatic production, motor drives and industrial plant machinery. The powerful filters are also suitable for modern frequency inverters for motor control.

The product features good broadband filter attenuation with the use of high-quality components of generously dimensioned film capacitors and chokes with permeable cores. The filters are designed for currents from 16 to 230 A at an ambient temperature of 50°C, and operating temperature ranges from -40 to +100°C. The standard versions are suited to industrial applications with leakage currents of <9.4 mA, while the special variants are suited to critical applications with leakage currents of <2.5 mA.

Featuring screw terminals for safe wiring with the metal flange providing a good earth connection when screwed to the chassis, the filters have both ENEC and cURus approval for applications up to 520 VAC, ENEC and UR approval for applications up to 760 VAC. The re-engineered FMBD EP series can replace the FMBD and FMBD NEO filters, offering identical performance but with reduced dimension and weight.
