NEW FACILITY EMI FILTER TARGETS MAGNETIC
RESONANCE IMAGING MARKET
Harrisburg, Pa. March 2, 2005 Tyco Electronics recently introduced the CORCOM MRI 2030R facility electro-magnetic interference (EMI) filter. This next generation product is a considerable improvement over the previous generation in terms of size and leakage current performance. The MRI 2030R consumes one-fifth the volume and passes only 3% of the leakage current compared to the previous generation of MRI facility EMI filters. More, the MRI 2030R maintains the performance necessary to meet MIL-STD-220A of 100 dB of attenuation from 5 MHz up to 20 GHz.
The MRI 2030R is designed specifically for magnetic resonance imaging equipment and other similar medical equipment.
In addition to the size and current leakage improvements, the MRI 2030R boasts a voltage drop of less than 1% at the unity power factor. Further, overloading is rated at 140% of rated current for 15 minutes. Harmonic distortion is less than 2% at the full rated current at unity power factor load.
The CORCOM MRI 2030R facility EMI filter is priced at $175 for 50 pieces and typical lead times are 6-8 weeks.
