Schaffner recommends a symmetrical layout with the filter's input and output stages separated by a ground plane to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI). A minimum of 1mm clearance around the filter is also recommended.
While the RT8132-20-2M5 is rated for operation up to 80°C, it's recommended to derate the filter's current rating by 1.5% per degree Celsius above 60°C to ensure reliable operation in high-temperature environments.
Schaffner's RT8132-20-2M5 meets various safety certifications, including UL, cUL, and ENEC. Ensure that your application meets the required safety standards by consulting the relevant certification bodies and following their guidelines.
Store the RT8132-20-2M5 in its original packaging, away from direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperatures. Handle the filter by the body, avoiding touching the pins or components to prevent damage or electrical shock.
While the RT8132-20-2M5 is designed to handle surge currents, it's essential to ensure that the filter is properly sized for the application's specific surge current requirements. Consult Schaffner's application notes for guidance on surge current handling.
