The easiest way of preventing EMI is to enclose the electrical equipment (if
possible) in a metal case. This is popularly known as 'Faraday Cage' and is
good at minimizing Radiated Interference (RMI). Additionally, most electrical
and electronic systems need a sequence of Inductor-Capacitor (LC) filters to
remove EMI. These filters are called as Feed-through (FT) capacitors and FT
filters.
FEEDTHROUGH FILTERS: A feed-through device consisting of an inductor
positioned between two capacitors connected to the ground. L, T, LL and Pi are
different types of feed-through filters.
Performance characteristics:
- Provides filtering in high frequency ranges (> 1 GHz)
- Can provide EMI protection in standard, high and extended performance
ranges
- 10 – 300 A, 130 V DC / 250 V AC
- FT capacitor performance increases with higher frequency, thus
providing better cost benefit
- FT filters can be used when higher performance is required over broad
range of frequencies
- FT filters have better performance than FT capacitors when the noise
source impedance is less than 50 Ohms
Applications of FT Filters:
- Home appliances
- Telecom Systems - Base Station Racks, Routers, Broadband
Communications
- Medical Systems - MRI Rooms, Screened rooms
- Power Systems - Main Power Supplies, Power Amplifiers and generators,
high current SMPS
- Industrial Systems - High Frequency welding equipment, Rolling Mills,
Variable Speed Drives, Frequency converters, Electric drives. Industrial
controls
- Military Systems - Military vehicles and equipment
- Office Automation
- Non-Conventional Energy
