Radio Interference Suppression Components

Product catalog summary
General Information on Radio Interference Suppression Components:
Radio interference is caused by devices emitting RF energy or rapid electrical current variations. Suppression involves reducing interference at the source or preventing its spread using capacitors, chokes, and filters.
Maximum Permitted Interference Limits:
Interference must be limited to ensure proper equipment operation. Measurements are taken up to 30 MHz for interference voltages and above 30 MHz for radiated field strength, following standards like CISPR Publ.11 and EN 55011.
Interference Suppression Methods:
Suppression components are connected to power source terminals or interference sources. Capacitors, chokes, and filter sets are used to suppress interference.
Capacitors and Filters for Suppression:
Standards for capacitors and filters include IEC60384-14 and UL1414. Class X capacitors are for non-shock applications, while Class Y capacitors prevent dangerous shocks. Capacitors are rated by voltage, frequency, and capacitance.
Definitions and Specifications:
Class X and Y capacitors are categorized by peak pulse voltage and insulation type. Rated voltage, frequency, and current are specified for capacitors. Insertion loss and resonant frequency are key characteristics.
Important Notes:
Capacitors are for AC applications and should not be used in humid environments. Iskra disclaims liability for misuse of products.

General information 1. rigin and spreading O of interference There are two main sources of radio interference: - devices, which due to their construction produce RF energy. These include generators for use in industry, medicine and science, as well as oscillators, radio and TV receivers etc. - devices, which produce a wide spectrum of frequencies due to rapid variations in electrical current intensity. These include devices with switching components, thyristors, triacs, commutators and similar. Interference from source to receiver is spread in three ways: along conductors, by coupling and by...

Definitions Taken From Standards: Class X capacitors Class X capacitors are suitable for applications where there is no danger of electrical shock in case of breakdown. Class X capacitors are divided into three subclasses (see table 1) according to the peak voltages of the pulses to which they are exposed during operation in addition to the line voltage. Such impulses can be caused by lightning in overhead lines, switching operations in neighbouring equipment or in the equipment which is shielded by the capacitor. Peak pulse voltage in service Peak value of the surge voltage to be added before...

Figure 4: feed through capacitor for symmetrical usage (non-coaxial) Rated frequency Insertion loss The rated frequency is the rated supply frequency for which the capacitor is designed, by which it is described and to which other rated values relate. The insertion loss is the ratio of the voltages both before and after the insertion of the attenuator measured at the connections. Surge voltage A surge voltage is an a-periodic single voltage of a certain profile as described in IEC 60060-1.

incorporating the capacitor inparallel with the interference source, interferences are more or less short circuited. A capacitor incorporated in-parallel with power source terminal, suppresses symmetrical interferences, and between a power conductor terminal and the casing or earth it suppresses asymmetrical interferences. Impedance theoretically drops linearly with frequency. Due to shield inductance of the capacitor the capacitor has its own resonant frequency. Above this frequency the capacitor is no self-suppressing component for interference. The value of frequency is decidedly influenced...
