The EMI EMC filter is a device that attenuates electromagnetic interference from the power system to limit the noise in the system. -. The ability of an  EMC filter is to suppress EMI ( electromagnetic interference) from  the environment and lowers the risk of malfunctioning of an equipment.

The EMI EMC filter is a product that can be used in different  industrial applications.i.-EMI EMC filters are used in the following sectors: Aerospace, Automotive and trucking, Construction and infrastructure, defence, space, and security (DS&S), home appliances, printing machines, currency counting machine, drive applications, electrical panels, SMPS, UPS, Inverters, Electric Vehicles, etc.

What are EMI EMC filters? 

EMI EMC filters are high-quality microwave frequency filters used in electronic devices. They are designed to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by any flux inducing equipment or any other rational- sources such as  mobile phones, Wi-Fi routers or base stations, and other radio equipment. The EMI EMC filter suppresses and limits these noise signals from entering any  device, preventing any damages caused by interference with sensitive circuitry inside the product. EMI filters are also helpful in protecting high-voltage equipment, and other sources of unwanted interference.

Applications of EMI EMC filters 

EMI can be caused by power lines, high voltages, or even radio waves emitted by other devices such as cell phones and wireless networks. These emissions cause problems with your computer’s motherboard or internal wiring system because they interfere with properly operating your computer’s components. This can lead to overheating, malfunctioning parts, poor performance, and more severe damage. They protect sensitive electronic equipment from harmful electromagnetic interference (EMI). EMI filters are widely used in industrial, commercial, and residential applications for safety purposes.

EMI EMC filters are used in power electronics, medical and communications equipment, military electronics, and industrial applications. They can also be found in consumer electronics, Microwave ovens; Amplifiers and other amplifiers (TV sets); Microwave ovens with remote controls; Cable TV distribution systems.

The most common application of EMI EMC filters is in power converters (PCs).  Switch mode power converters (PWM) often  deliver AC power from a variable frequency supply at the desired voltage level. These PWM modules have an input stage that operates at high frequencies, followed by an output stage at low frequencies or zero crossing detection (ZC).

  • Applications requiring  for low leakage currents, e.g., battery-powered devices 

The EMC filter is a valuable component for battery-powered devices. It can be used to protect the battery from damage caused by high leakage currents, and it can also be used to protect other parts of the circuit.

  • High-reliability applications,  e.g., aerospace and military.

In high-reliability applications EMI EMC filters protect sensitive equipment from noise generated by neighboring electrical equipment.

EMC filters are designed to attenuate the EMI emitted by various sources. They can be used in many applications, such as amplifiers and power supplies, audio amplifiers and speakers (to reduce noise), power injectors for hybrid vehicles, etc. The range of EMI EMC filters includes versatile, durable, and efficient single-phase, three-phase, dc, power cord, etc.
