Introduction

The FN3060 3-Phase Filters from TE Connectivity / Schaffner are advanced power filters engineered to ensure clean and reliable power in demanding industrial environments. Designed for high-performance applications, these filters help maintain compliance with international safety standards while minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Part Description

The FN3060 3-Phase Filters are specifically built for 480V AC nominal operation, supporting current ratings from 20A up to 250A. These filters are compliant with both IEC and UL standards, ensuring global compatibility and safety. With a low leakage current of just 4mA, the FN3060 series is particularly suitable for installations where strict leakage requirements must be met, such as in systems with sensitive circuit fault current interrupters (CFCIs). The compact design allows for easy integration into control panels and machinery, while their robust construction ensures long-term reliability. These filters are optimized for use in corner-grounded delta and IT network configurations, providing effective EMI suppression in complex electrical environments.

Applications

• Industrial automation equipment
• Motor drives and inverters
• Power distribution panels
• Renewable energy systems (e.g., solar or wind inverters)
• Large-scale HVAC systems
• Data centers and server rooms

Industries

• Manufacturing and industrial automation
