EMI Filters
Introduction
HIGH-REL EMI FILTERS
Noise is the enemy of good engineering design. Properly
installed EMI filters suppress such electromagnetic interfer-
ence on power and signal lines, while allowing desired sig-
nals to pass. For critical EMI filter applications, high reliability
is of the utmost importance.
High reliability applications have diverse requirements, rang-
ing from a need for a long operating life in medical or military
systems to avoiding the prohibitive cost of replacing a faulty
component in a satellite, undersea cable, or other inaccessi-
ble system. High-rel filters satisfy application-critical require-
ments in many environments:
• Space/Satellite Systems
• Military Aircraft
• Guidance Systems
• Command, Control & Communications (C3)
• Missile Systems
• Weapon Systems
• Radar Systems
• Electro Optical Systems
• Electronic Countermeasures
• Electronic Warfare
• Pacemakers
• Medication Monitors
HIGH-REL STANDARDS
Reliability must be designed into an EMI filter. Every step in
its manufacture from material selection through testing and
characterization must be considered. To assure confor-
mance to clearly-defined product and performance parame-
ters, specifications have evolved for electrical performance,
mechanical configurations, test methods, screening and
qualification procedures.
AVX Filters delivers high quality EMI filters which meet appli -
cable portions of these high-reliability standards:
• MIL-F-15733 • MIL-STD-220
• MIL-F-28861 • MIL-Q-9858
• MIL-STD-202 • MIL-I-45208A
• MIL-STD-790 • ISO 9000
• MIL-C-123 • EIA-RS-469
AVX FILTERS AT THE LEADING EDGE
AVX Filters Corporation continues to provide innovative
solutions to the high performance needs of its customers. It
has pioneered many breakthroughs which have advanced
the state-of-the-art in this demanding discipline, including:
• The first to qualify to the new High-Reliability Filter Spec,
MIL-F-28861.
• Facility qualified to MIL-STD-790 during first round of
audits for filter manufacturers.
• The first solder-in filter line to offer 400°C installation
temperature.
• The first filter line designed to meet the new MIL-Spec
requirements for heat rise/reactive current in 125 VAC
and 230 VAC 400 Hz applications.
• The first to offer a filter line of hermetically sealed bolt
style filters.
CUSTOM AND SEMI-CUSTOM
In addition to standard catalog and QPL EMI filters, AVX
Filters produces two classes of these special products:
Semi-custom and Custom. Semi-custom involves variations
in electrical parameters, testing, and limited mechanical
changes from standard product designs. Delivery is slightly
longer and price is slightly higher than standard products
Custom products require longer lead time for design and
manufacturing, but give designers freedom to specify non-
standard mechanical and electrical filter designs.
AVX Filters dedicates a unique internal part number to every
semi-custom and custom component. This insures contin-
ued configuration control for each part, allows future
changes to be easily implemented, and provides assurance
that the design always matches the customer requirements.
ENGINEER TO ENGINEER
Our application engineering staff will assist in defining
your filter requirements, while recommending advantages,
reliability, quality assurance levels, and filter performance at

specification, including meeting DESC requirements. SCD
models are available to assist you in the design process.
A custom filter part number will be assigned exclusively to
your SCD. To obtain prompt, professional assistance, call
(818) 767-6770.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Quality assurance is built into every stage of manufacturing
and testing. AVX Filters controls the entire process, from
the capacitor's dielectric formulation through final filter
test. This results in absolute traceability by lot number to a
specific dielectric batch, as well as the subsequent materials,
equipment and employees involved in the tightly-controlled
manufacturing and testing process. In addition, critical
processes are monitored using SQC, SPC techniques.

Solder-In Style High Temp EMI Filters
ZS/ZR Series – .128 Dia. – Circuits Available – C & L
The ZS series provides effective filtering
in the MICROWAVE frequency spectrum
from 10 MHz through 26 GHz. Designed
to be soldered into a package, bracket or
bulkhead (and maintain hermeticity), it is
ideal for high impedance circuits where
large capacitance values are not practical.
In the “L” section version an internal fer-
rite bead element provides both induc-
tance and series resistance (lossy charac-
teristic) which improves insertion loss and
provides superior transient performance.
Alternate lead lengths or special capaci-
tance values may be ordered.

Solder-In Style High Temp EMI Filters
YS/YR Series – .165 Dia. – Circuits Available – C & L
The YS series provides increased filtering
in the MICROWAVE frequency spectrum
from 1 MHz through 10 GHz. Previously
unavailable in the industry as a solder-in
device, this unique design offers higher
values of capacitance than were previ-
ously available. Designed to be soldered
into a package, bracket or bulkhead (and
maintain hermeticity), it is ideal for high
impedance circuits where large capaci-
tance values are not practical. In the “L”
section version an internal ferrite bead
element provides both inductance and
series resistance (lossy characteristic)
which improves insertion loss and pro-
vides superior transient performance.
Alternate lead lengths or special capaci-
tance values may be ordered.

Solder-In Style High Temp EMI Filters
XS/XR Series – .250 Dia. – Circuits Available – C & L
The XS series expands upon the YS offer-
ing by providing additional filtering in the
HF through MICROWAVE frequency
spectrum from 500 KHz up to 10 GHz.
The larger diameter of the XS series
means that even higher values of capaci-
tance and a rated DC current of 10 Amps
are available. Designed to be soldered
into a package, bracket or bulkhead
(and maintain hermeticity), it is ideal for
medium to high impedance circuits where
significant amounts of capacitance to
ground can be tolerated. In the “L”
section version an internal ferrite bead
element provides both inductance and
series resistance (lossy characteristic)
which improves insertion loss and pro-
vides superior transient performance.
Alternate lead lengths or special capaci-
tance values may be ordered.
Custom packages or bracket assemblies
utilizing this feedthru can be furnished to
your specifications.

Advanced Technology Filters
Miniature, Subminiature & Microminiature
APPLICATIONS
AVX’s Miniature filter line breaks the “small” size barrier. These
ultraminiature products, available as solder-in or screw-in style,
have case diameters as low as .073". Threaded filters will allow
substitution, flexibility of placement and simple installation, while
solder-in parts will provide hermeticity of your microcircuit pack-
ages. Now, with capacitance values of up to 50,000 pF, “C”, “L”
or “T” circuits, superior insertion loss over on-board
filtering, variety of ultra small and lightweight sizes, you can meet
all “mission critical” objectives. World’s smallest and most
complete miniature EMI filter line is especially well suited for
microwave industry, medical electronics, avionics instrumenta-
tion, satellites or other applications where space is at premium.

Bolt Style EMI Filters
SA Series – 4-40 Thread - Epoxy Sealed –
Circuits Available – C & L
The SA series provides effective filtering
in the RF and MICROWAVE frequency
spectrums from 10 MHz through 26 GHz.
Designed for mounting in a tapped
bulkhead or with the standard nut and
lockwasher provided, it is ideal for high
impedance circuits where large capaci-
tance values are not practical. In the “L”
section version an internal ferrite bead
element provides both inductance and
series resistance (lossy characteristic)
which improves insertion loss and pro-
vides superior transient performance.
The SA series comes with a standard
.020 diameter beryllium copper lead.
Alternate lead lengths, diameters of .016
or .026 and alternate materials in steel or
half-hard copper are available.
• Meets or exceeds the applicable portions
of MIL-F-28861/6. See QPL listings.
• Smallest screwbody filter available.
• Features rugged monolithic discoidal
capacitor construction.
• Epoxy seal on both ends.
1. Plating: Silver standard – Electro-tin or
gold available
2. Material:
Case: Cold rolled steel
Leads: Beryllium copper (steel or half/hard
copper leads available)
3. Operating Temperature Range:

min., whichever is less
At 125°C: 100 megohm-microfarad
min., or 10,000 megohms
min., whichever is less
5. Dielectric Withstanding Voltage (DWV):
R-level designs:
2.0 times rated DC voltage
Class B, Class S designs:
2.5 times rated DC voltage
6. DC Resistance (DCR): .02 ohm,

11. Insertion Loss for the “C” and “L” sections
are equivalent due to the saturation
characteristic of the ferrite bead element
at rated current. At lower currents the “L”
becomes much more effective.

Bolt Style EMI Filters
SH Series – 10-32 Thread - Epoxy Sealed –
Circuits Available – C, L, π
The SH series provides intermediate
filtering in the RF through MICROWAVE
frequency spectrums from 100 KHz
through 10 GHz. The larger hex size
means that much higher values of capac-
itance are available in the feedthru style
circuits and that a 125 VAC/400 Hz rating
is available in certain values. Also
designed for mounting in a tapped bulk-
head or with the standard nut and lock-
washer provided, it is optimum in medium
to low impedance circuits where significant
amounts of capacitance to ground can
be tolerated. In the “L” and “π” section
versions an internal ferrite bead element
provides both inductance and series
resistance (lossy characteristic) which
improves the insertion loss rolloff to 40 dB
and 60 dB per decade respectively.
Alternate lead diameters or lengths are
available, both with and without a nailhead.
• Equivalent to SB series π circuits and to
SP series feedthru or “L” circuits.
• Conservatively rated for 125 VAC/400
Hz in certain values.
• π design offers steeper insertion loss
rolloff.
• Features rugged monolithic discoidal
capacitor construction.
• Epoxy seal on both ends.

SP Series – 12-32 Thread - Epoxy Sealed –
Circuits Available – C, L, π
The SP series provides increased filtering
in the HF through MICROWAVE frequen-
cy spectrums from 100 KHz through 10
GHz. The larger hex size means that
much higher values of capacitance are
available and that a 125 VAC/400 Hz rat-
ing is available in certain values. Also
designed for mounting in a tapped bulk-
head or with the standard nut and lock-
washer provided, it is optimum in medium
to low impedance circuits where significant
amounts of capacitance to ground can
be tolerated. In the “L” and “π” section
versions an internal ferrite bead element
provides both inductance and series
resistance (lossy characteristic) which
improves the insertion loss rolloff to 40 dB
and 60 dB per decade respectively.
Alternate lead diameters or lengths are
available both with and without a nailhead.
• Designed to meet or exceed the applica-
ble portions of MIL-F-28861/9. See QPL
listing.
• Conservatively rated for 125 VAC/400
Hz in certain values.
• π design offers steeper insertion loss
rolloff.
• Features rugged monolithic discoidal
capacitor construction.
• Epoxy seal on both ends.

cuits are equivalent due to the saturation
characteristic of the ferrite bead element
at full rated current. At lower currents the
“L” and “π” become much more effective.

Bolt Style EMI Filters
SN Series – 12-32 Thread - Hermetically Sealed –
Circuits Available – C, L, π
The SN series offers effective filtering
from 1 MHz to 10 GHz. Glass sealed on
both ends for hermeticity, this series is
impervious to high moisture, solvents, or
other severe environmental conditions
commonly encountered in military applica-
tions. It is designed for bulkhead mounting
with nut and lockwasher supplied.
The feedthru designs yield constant filter-
ing as current level is increased from
no-load to full rated load. They are most
effective when placed in high impedance
circuits. The π-section designs exhibit
sharper roll-off in filter characteristic and
perform effectively when used in medium
to low impedance circuits.
Alternate lead configurations or special
capacitance values and voltage ratings
may be ordered.
• The hermetic bolt-style design was
developed to meet or exceed the
applicable portions of MIL-F-28861/10.
The filter is assembled with a glass her-
metic seal on both ends. The rugged
monolithic capacitor element is a low
inductance design that yields superior
bypass performance. The π-section
design contains two capacitor elements
together with a ferrite bead inductor.
• Certain feedthru designs are rated for
115 VAC/400 Hz applications. The 200
VDC π-section design is rated for DC
applications only.

Advanced Technology Filters
Miniature, Subminiature & Microminiature
APPLICATIONS
AVX’s Miniature filter line breaks the “small” size barrier. These
ultraminiature products, available as solder-in or screw-in style,
have case diameters as low as .073". Threaded filters will allow
substitution, flexibility of placement and simple installation, while
solder-in parts will provide hermeticity of your microcircuit pack-
ages. Now, with capacitance values of up to 50,000 pF, “C”, “L”
or “T” circuits, superior insertion loss over on-board
filtering, variety of ultra small and lightweight sizes, you can meet
all “mission critical” objectives. World’s smallest and most
complete miniature EMI filter line is especially well suited for
microwave industry, medical electronics, avionics instrumenta-
tion, satellites or other applications where space is at premium.

Cylindrical Style EMI Filters
BL Series – .375 Dia. – Button Epoxy Sealed –
Circuits Available – C & L
The BL series offers effective filtering from
30 KHz up through 1 GHz. It offers epoxy
resin seals on both ends in order to
optimize volumetric efficiency and reduce
cost. Where severe moisture environments
exist the slightly larger companion BK
series is recommended as it incorporates
a glass to metal hermetic seal at both
ends. The BL series is designed for bulk-
head mounting in a slotted hole with nut
and lockwasher supplied. This series is
ideal for low to medium impedance
circuits where large amounts of capaci-
tance to ground can be tolerated. In the
“L” section version an internal ferrite bead
element provides both inductance and
series resistance (lossy characteristic)
which improves insertion loss at lower
current ratings and provides superior
transient performance.
Alternate lead configurations or special
capacitance values may be ordered.
Custom packages or filter arrays utilizing
the BL series can be furnished.
• Internal ferrite bead provides inductance
for the L-section version.

GK Series – .375/.410 Dia.
Hermetically Sealed – Circuits Available – C, L, π, T
The GK series offers effective filtering from
30 KHz to 10 GHz. Glass sealed for
hermeticity, this series is impervious to
high moisture, solvents, or other severe
environmental conditions commonly
encountered in military applications. It
is designed for bulkhead mounting in
a slotted hole with nut and lockwasher

The “L” and “T” configurations are designed
to provide effective attenuation over a wide
range of circuit impedances. For current
ratings under 10 Amps toroidal wound
inductor elements offer increased filter
performance and protection against circuit
transients. Data showing the actual
inductance versus various levels of DC or
AC bias current are available as well as the
attenuation in any combination of source
and load impedances.
Alternate lead configurations or special
capacitance/inductance values may be
ordered.
Custom packages or filter arrays utilizing
the GK series can be furnished.
• .410 Dia. version (HK) meets or exceeds the applicable
requirements of MIL-F-28861/2,/3,/4,/5. See QPL listing.

Cylindrical Style EMI Filters
JD Series – .690 Dia.
Hermetically Sealed – Circuits Available – C, L, π, T
The JD series offers effective filtering
from 14 KHz to 10 GHz. The large diam-
eter, increased length, restricted capaci-
tance values and conservative dielectrics
of the JD series are particularly important
design features for 400 Hz AC applica-
tions where high reactive currents and
the resultant heat dissipation must be
controlled. Glass sealed on both ends for
hermeticity, this series is impervious to
high moisture, solvents, or other severe
environmental conditions commonly
encountered in military applications. It is
designed for bulkhead mounting in a
slotted hole with nut and lockwasher
supplied.
The 230 VAC “T” section style is unique-
ly capable of handling very high pulse
inrush currents or overvoltage conditions
typical of EMP.
In addition, transient voltage suppression
devices can be added to any of the JD
circuit designs to provide complete
circuit protection against EMP, lightning,
or voltage spikes such as MIL-STD-704.
These devices when combined with high
frequency attenuation characteristics of
the discoidal capacitor and toroidal
inductors offer significant performance
advantages by suppressing and absorb-
ing the EMP pulse over a very broad
spectral range. Very high pulse currents
will occur within the EMI filter, however,
reradiation to sensitive electronic circuits
is prevented by the fully shielded case
design. In some cases a slight increase
in the case length of the filter is required
to provide space for the transient sup-
pression device.
The “L”, and the “T” designs are designed
to provide effective attenuation over a
wide range of circuit impedances. For
current ratings under 15 Amps toroidal
wound inductor elements offer increased
filter performance and protection against
circuit transients. Data showing the actual
inductance versus various levels of DC or
AC bias current are available as well as the
attenuation in any combination of source
and load impedance.
Alternate lead configurations or special
capacitance/inductance values may be
ordered.
Custom packages or filter arrays utilizing
the JD series can be furnished.

ments of DESC drawings

Advanced Technology Filters
Miniature, Subminiature & Microminiature
APPLICATIONS
AVX’s Miniature filter line breaks the “small” size barrier. These
ultraminiature products, available as solder-in or screw-in style,
have case diameters as low as .073". Threaded filters will allow
substitution, flexibility of placement and simple installation, while
solder-in parts will provide hermeticity of your microcircuit pack-
ages. Now, with capacitance values of up to 50,000 pF, “C”, “L”
or “T” circuits, superior insertion loss over on-board
filtering, variety of ultra small and lightweight sizes, you can meet
all “mission critical” objectives. World’s smallest and most
complete miniature EMI filter line is especially well suited for
microwave industry, medical electronics, avionics instrumenta-
tion, satellites or other applications where space is at premium.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
These are high frequency filters in space
saving solder-in designs which will oper-
ate under harsh environments and meet
the high reliability requirements of MIL-F-
28861 without outgassing. AVX Filters
Corporation has designed a filter which
sets a new standard for the industry.
These feed-thru filters are constructed
with hi-rel semiconductor materials and
rugged MLC discoidal capacitors. They
are also manufactured at high tempera-
tures (>500°C) without fluxes, epoxies or
other polymers, thus eliminating failure
mechanisms associated with conven-
tional solder-ins. These solder-ins with-
stand short temperature excursions as
high as 400°C, and can actually be
operated at temperatures to 200°C.
Available either as discrete packages in
standard case sizes or as multiple filter
brackets, all have hermetic glass-to-
metal seals on both ends.
FEATURES
• Standard sizes

Custom Designed Filter Plates
AVX solder-in style filters are designed to be soldered into
bulkheads, plates, and/or assemblies similar to those depict-
ed in the photograph above. AVX Filters will design and
fabricate bracket arrays to your specific requirements or
Source Control Drawing.
The mechanical stress and extreme temperatures encoun-
tered by the filters during installation into assemblies is
normally the harshest environment they will experience dur-
ing the life of a system.
If you are buying the discrete filters and doing the installation
in house you should seriously consider:
• How much is it costing you to purchase burned-in
and fully tested filters only to damage them during the
installation procedure?
• How much is it costing you to test for component
integrity after installation?
• How much is it costing you to rework damaged filter
assemblies at your labor rates and overhead?
• How much is it costing you to contend with low assembly
yields?
• How much is it costing you to inventory a larger number
of line items than necessary?
AVX Filters will design and fabricate filter brackets:
• To your specific requirements.
• 100% tested and burned-in prior to delivery.
• Which utilize the superior solder-in style filters (Series
ZZ, ZS, XS, WS) capable of withstanding installation
temperatures up to 300°C, or
• Which utilize the new hermetic solder-in when harsh
environments or other requirements call for true hermetic
components.
A custom designed filter bracket will help:
• To reduce your yield losses.
• To eliminate filter rework in assemblies.
• To reduce system assembly costs.
• To minimize your inventory.
For additional information on filter brackets or design assis-
tance, contact the AVX Filters Application Engineering
Department.

Filter Types
A feedthru is a low inductance device, acting as a bypass
feedthru capacitor to ground. It works well with a high imped-
ance load and source. For assured contact, it should be sol-
dered directly to a bulkhead or a connector base.
This adds a series-inductive element to the bypass feedthru
capacitor connected to ground. Because of the inductor, it can
be connected to a low impedance source or load. This filter
may be used to link a low impedance source to a high imped-
ance load, or vice versa, with the feedthru capacitor facing the
high impedance circuit.
This filter contains two feedthru capacitors connected to
ground with an inductor in-between. It presents a low imped-
ance to both the source and load, and has a sharper roll-off
than either the feed-thru or L-section designs. With feedthru
capacitors as outer elements, this filter is best suited for high
impedance load and source applications.
This filter forms a 'T' with two inductors and a feedthru capac-
itor connected to ground. Like the π Filter, it has a sharper roll-
off than a feedthru or an L-section design. With inductors as
outer elements, the T-section is intended for applications with
a low impedance load and source. It also finds application
where transient conditions may occur (EMP, lighting, etc).

INSERTION LOSS
The insertion loss values specified throughout
this catalog are based upon an industry standard
of full load and balanced 50 ohm system in
accordance with MIL-STD-220A (at +25°C). The
actual attenuation performance in other circuits
will vary significantly with different values of
source and load impedance.
The insertion loss values in this catalog may
appear to be significantly lower than that of
comparable filters in certain other competitor cat-
alogs. The reason for this is that AVX Filters takes
into account both component and circuit reso-
nances and adjusts the table values such
that the insertion loss will not drop below straight
lines drawn between each data point in a
semilog graph.

Filter Design Guide
High Reliability
GENERAL
Proper Electrical Operation Requires:
• Good filter/case ground.
• Design layout where filter is installed directly into
conductive shield or enclosure.
• Minimizing holes, slots, or other penetrations of the
shield near the filter.
Installation Precautions
• Although EMI/RFI filters can withstand temperature
extremes, rapid heat-up or cool-down can crack the
internal ceramic capacitor.
– Pre-heating of the filter prior to soldering should be
performed whenever possible.
– Forced-air cooling after soldering is not recommended.
Avoid Mechanical Stress
• Do not use pliers or other gripping tools capable of
exerting excessive pressure on filter case.
• Do not alter the lead or terminal flag either before or
after soldering.
SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS
Hi-Temp Solder-In Style Filter
• Small case design sensitive to excessive heating.
• 150°C preheat prior to solder installation using supplied
solder preform highly recommended.
• Vapor phase reflow (VPR) soldering with integral preheat
is preferred.
• Infrared (IR) and hot plate soldering may also be used.
• Temperature should be increased to solder temperature
(300°C, max.) at a controlled rate of 2°C per second.
• Time at max. temperature should be kept at a minimum
and should never exceed 30 seconds.
• When soldering leads using an iron:
— Iron tip temperature should not exceed 460°F (60/40
solder recommended).
— Use a small iron, 15-20 watts, and do not apply heat
for longer than 10 seconds.
— Use of heat sink clip when lead length permits is
recommended.
• Do not expose leads to torque stresses by moving wires
after soldering to lead. The glass hermetic seal may be
damaged.
• Do not cut or form filter leads.
— Mechanical stress may be transmitted to the
discoidal capacitor.
— The glass hermetic seal may be damaged.
— Contact AVX Filters regarding custom lead lengths
to accommodate your requirements.
Bolt-Style Filters
• Do not exceed recommended nut mounting torques
listed on next page. NOTE: it is preferable to keep to the
low side of torque range when installing filters into
threaded mounting holes.
• On epoxy sealed bolt-style units AVX Filters recom-
mends conformal coating of the units after installation to
improve moisture resistance.
• Observe same precautions listed for hi-temp filter when
soldering to filter center pin.
• Do not bend filter center pin.
Cylindrical-Style Filters
• Observe recommended nut mounting torque as per the
table on next page.
— BK, CK, GK – series filters (1/4-28 UNF-2A) require
44 ± 4 oz-in.
— JD series (5/16-24 UNF-2A) require 60 ± 4 oz-in.
• The terminal flags should not be subjected to mechanical
stress during or after leadwire installation. The glass
hermetic seal may be adversely affected.
• Use care in soldering to the terminal flags. An 18-30
watt soldering iron is recommended. CAUTION: the use
of a large wattage iron without temperature control may
cause reflow of the high-temperature solder used to seal
the terminal. This could result in the loss of hermeticity
for the filter.
HARDWARE OPTIONS
General
• Necessary mounting hardware is supplied with all filters.
• Hex nut and lockwasher plating will be as per filter case
specified.
• Refer to table for hardware selection. Standard hard-
ware (“STD”) will be supplied unless otherwise requested.

Notes
NOTE 1:
CAPACITANCE CODE
All AVX Filters part numbers, with exception of certain cylin-
drical styles, show total filter capacitance using the 3-digit
EIA code. The first two digits are significant: the last digit is
the multiplier.
Example: 103=10000 picofarads
125=1200000 picofarads
(1.2 microfarads)
It is important to note that π filters and multisection filters are
described using the EIA code from the standpoint of total
capacitance. Capacitance is understood to be specified
as “guaranteed minimum value” (GMV) unless otherwise
specified. AVX Filters can supply ±20% or other specified
tolerances at an additional charge. Contact AVX Filters
Applications Engineering for further information.
NOTE 2:
RELIABILITY CODES
The customer must select the reliability code to be consis-
tent with the filter application. As a minimum, all catalog
filters are available as R-level designs.
Options:
“-” signifies an R-level filter design without the optional
R-level high-rel screening
“R” R-level design with optional R-level high-rel screening
also specified
“B” Class B design with Group A screening per M28861 for
Class B filters
“S” Class S design with Group A screening per M28861 for
Class S (space grade) filters
Please refer to the catalog section on Reliability for additional
information on how to select reliability codes.
NOTE 3:
SPECIAL DESIGN CODE
(ASSIGNED BY AVX FILTERS)
A special suffix to the standard part number will be added by
AVX Filters Applications Engineering to describe special
designs or designs that are controlled by customer specifi-
cations. It is important to note that even in those instances
where a customer drawing describes a standard catalog
design it is AVX Filters policy to assign a special part number
to the customer drawing for configuration control.
NOTE 4:
VOLTAGE CODES AND FILTER
VOLTAGE RATINGS
IMPORTANT: please contact AVX Filters Applications
Engineering when considering DC-rated filter designs for
possible use in AC applications. As a general rule, DC
designs may be derated for AC applications. Let us assist
you.
The voltage code letters must be selected consistent with
the capabilities as outlined in the product selection tables for
a given filter type. It is important to note that the same code
letter may signify a different voltage rating depending upon
filter type. For example: the “L” code signifies a 200
VDC/125 VAC rating for a bolt-style filter, but it describes a
300 VDC/125 VAC design when applied to a JD-style filter.
NOTE 5:
TERMINAL AND LEADWIRE CODES
Non-standard terminal configurations including special
materials or finishes are available. Please indicate a descrip-
tion and/or outline drawing when requesting a non-standard
terminal (code “3”).
NOTE 6:
SPECIAL INFORMATION FOR
CYLINDRICAL STYLE FILTERS
L-section filter designs must be specified with regard to
“standard” or “reverse” configuration. The L-section filter is
normally utilized with the capacitor on the high impedance
side of the circuit and the inductor looking into the low
impedance side. Compact filter types such as the BK2
or CK2 button filters with ferrite bead inductors are only
supplied with the bead assembled into the threaded end.
GK2 and JD2 L-section filters are normally supplied with
a schematic or other marking to indicate location of the
inductor.
AC-rated catalog designs incorporate reduced values of
capacitance to limit reactive current heating (and subsequent
filter temperature rise) to safe levels. Do not specify a
DC-rated filter with larger capacitance for an AC application
without contacting AVX Filters Applications Engineering.
