1) Calculation according draft proposal IEC 609391 Ed. 3 (20081029), annex A, ”Calculation of leakage current” at 50 Hz. In practice
are up to double values to be expected due to the insulation resistance values of the used ceramic capacitors. For the medical version
results computationally the value 0. In practice are values 1 ... 2 µA to be expected due to the insulation resistance values of the used
materials.

Cautions and warnings
Please read all safety and warning notes carefully before installing the EMC filter and putting it
into operation (see ). The same applies to the warning signs on the filter. Please ensure that
the signs are not removed nor their legibility impaired by external influences.
Death, serious bodily injury and substantial material damage to equipment may occur if the
appropriate safety measures are not carried out or the warnings in the text are not observed.
Using according to the terms
The EMC filters may be used only for their intended application within the specified values in lowvoltage networks in compliance with the instructions given in the data sheets and the data book.
The conditions at the place of application must comply with all specifications for the filter used.
Warning
It shall be ensured that only qualified persons (electricity specialists) are engaged on work such
as planning, assembly, installation, operation, repair and maintenance. They must be provided
with the corresponding documentation.
Danger of electric shock. EMC filters contain components that store an electric charge. Dangerous voltages can continue to exist at the filter terminals for longer than five minutes even after
the power has been switched off.
The protective earth connections shall be the first to be made when the EMC filter is installed
and the last to be disconnected. Depending on the magnitude of the leakage currents, the particular specifications for making the protective-earth connection must be observed.
Impermissible overloading of the EMC filter, such as with circuits able to cause resonances, impermissible voltages at higher frequencies etc. can lead to bodily injury and death as well as
cause substantial material damages (e.g. destruction of the filter housing).
EMC filters must be protected in the application against impermissible exceeding of the rated
currents by overcurrent protective circuitry.
In case of leakage currents >3.5 mA you shall mount the PE conductor stationary with the
required cross section before beginning of operation and save it against disconnecting. For
leakage currents IL1) 250 A
For operating currents greater than 250 A, we Mounting
recommend the PE connection to be set up between instructions, point
the feed (filter: line) and output (filter: load) not via the 2
PE terminal bolt in the filter housing.

Important notes
The following applies to all products named in this publication:
1. Some parts of this publication contain statements about the suitability of our products for certain
areas of application. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical requirements that are
often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We nevertheless expressly point
out that such statements cannot be regarded as binding statements about the suitability of our
products for a particular customer application. As a rule we are either unfamiliar with individual
customer applications or less familiar with them than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is
always ultimately incumbent on the customer to check and decide whether a product with the properties
described in the product specification is suitable for use in a particular customer application.
2. We also point out that in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or failure
before the end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the current state of the
art, even if they are operated as specified. In customer applications requiring a very high level of
operational safety and especially in customer applications in which the malfunction or failure of an
electronic component could endanger human life or health (e.g. in accident prevention or life-saving
systems), it must therefore be ensured by means of suitable design of the customer application or other
action taken by the customer (e.g. installation of protective circuitry or redundancy) that no injury or
damage is sustained by third parties in the event of malfunction or failure of an electronic component.
3. The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed.
4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements, some of the products described in this publication
may contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e.g. because they are
classed as hazardous). Useful information on this will be found in our Material Data Sheets on the
Internet (www.tdk-electronics.tdk.com/material). Should you have any more detailed questions, please
contact our sales offices.
5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently, the products described in this
publication may change from time to time. The same is true of the corresponding product
specifications. Please check therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications contained
in this publication are still applicable before or when you place an order.
We also reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Consequently, we
cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available. The
aforementioned does not apply in the case of individual agreements deviating from the foregoing for
customer-specific products.
6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to our General Terms and
Conditions of Supply.
7. Our manufacturing sites serving the automotive business apply the IATF 16949 standard. The
IATF certifications confirm our compliance with requirements regarding the quality management system
in the automotive industry. Referring to customer requirements and customer specific requirements
(“CSR”) TDK always has and will continue to have the policy of respecting individual agreements. Even
if IATF 16949 may appear to support the acceptance of unilateral requirements, we hereby like to
emphasize that only requirements mutually agreed upon can and will be implemented in our
Quality Management System. For clarification purposes we like to point out that obligations from IATF
16949 shall only become legally binding if individually agreed upon.
