RB8522-36-1M5

The Schaffner RB8522-36-1M5 is a common mode choke from the RB series, designed for effective EMI noise suppression on AC and DC power lines. It features a rated inductance of 1.5 mH at 400 Hz and a nominal current rating of 36A under convection cooling at 60°C. The choke operates at up to 600 VAC or 1000 VDC and maintains functionality across a wide temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

This through-hole mounted component has a vertical, 8 PC pin package and a low typical DC resistance of 3 mOhm. Its construction is open for efficient cooling and offers ruggedized saturation and thermal behavior. The straightforward pin-out facilitates easy PCB design.

Common mode chokes like the RB8522-36-1M5 are crucial for filtering electromagnetic interference generated by electronic equipment, ensuring the proper function of other devices. They are typically used in PCB integrated filter designs, often in conjunction with line bypass capacitors or single-phase filters for low leakage designs.

Typical applications include AC and DC filtering for midsize power range drives, photovoltaic inverters, fast chargers, charging stations, UPS, and switch mode power supplies. It helps filter low leakage current noise and improves immunity against grid disturbances.
