Schurter FMBC EP Two-Stage Three-Phase EMC Filter
Chassis Mount | 520/760 VAC | 16–230 A | 2-Stage | Machine Safety | Industrial & Low Leakage
Schurter FMBC EP Two-Stage Three-Phase EMC Filter Overview
The Schurter FMBC EP is a two-stage three-phase EMC filter for three-wire systems (without neutral), rated 16–230 A at 520 VAC or 760 VAC from -40°C to 100°C. The 760 V rating is notable: most three-phase EMC filters are limited to 480–520 VAC, making the FMBC EP directly applicable to higher-voltage drive systems. Industrial and low-leakage current versions are available (low leakage up to 64 A), and the full range is duplicated in a Machine Safety variant (IEC 60204-1, order series 3-138-xxx). CSA C22.2 No. 8 approval is also held alongside VDE and UL.
