SK Series
This series of RFI filters was designed to reduce conducted noise to acceptable limits for equipment that must comply with the FCC specifications in the USA and CISPR specifications in Europe.
The SK (Super K) series filters use significantly higher element values than the general purpose K series, which makes them better suited for equipment with line-to-ground and line-to-line conducted emissions, including switch mode power supplies.
The ESK models meet the very low leakage current requirements of VDE portable equipment and (120 Volt) UL 544 non-patient medical equipment.
Models ESK6C and VSK6C additionally incorporate a separate ground-circuit inductor to isolate the equipment chassis from power line ground at RF frequencies.
