Single-phase Filter for
the Control Line of Equipment
Approvalsn Filter for the control line of complex
equipment and machinery
n Ensures the interference-free operation
of the control unit / PLC
n Improves the immunity and reliability of
the entire system
n Compact EMC filter design with
minimum space requirement
Typical applications
n An additional filter for the supply cables
of controls of rather large and complex
systems, to ensure a fault free operation of
the control unit (PLC, Motion Control etc.).
n Improves the immunity, reliability and
service security of the entire system sig-
nificant by reducing the risk of internal
interference propagation and coupling.
n An extremely compact and light weight
filter design requiring minimum mounting
space in machinery and equipment.
n Simple and time-saving installation with
good accessibility for automatic and hand
tools.
n Solid, touch-safe terminal blocks offering
sufficient contacting cross section
according to the EN 60204-1 installation
standard, which is very common for
machine tools and industrial equipment.
n By providing a very decent attenuation
performance, FN 2415 contributes siginifi-
cant to the achievement of electromagnetic
compliance according to the last stan-
dards (like EN 50370-1 for machine tools).
Ideal for industrial equipment, machinery
and diverse process automation systems,
which involve any kind of control units (NC,
CNC, PLC, Motion Controls). Rather large
and complex machine tools, with 8 or even
more driving axes and very long motor
cables, can be subjected to major reliability
problems, caused by internal coupling of in-
terferences from the drive system to the
control lines. Very often, this causes a drop
out of the control unit and consequently
downtimes of the entire machine. By
operating an FN 2415 in addition to a mains
input filter, these negative effects can be
eliminated for most situations. FN 2415 can
also be used for the most diverse single-
phase applications with medium to high
interference levels, such as single-phase
motor drives or power supplies.
