WE-CMB Common Mode Chokes from Wurth Elektronik

WE-CMB Common Mode Power Line Choke

At the power input of all electronics, the Common Mode Choke is an essential part of the Main Filter. WE-CMB common mode chokes are ideal for the suppression of common mode noise and the suppression of radio interferences between the device and mains lines.

Suitable applications include power line in and output filters, power electronics and the filtering of devices lacking a ground connection. With plastics in Flammability rating UL94-V0, coated and robust cores and a wire winding technique for a low parasitic capacitance, these chokes ensure reliable performance.

WCAP-FTXH capacitors from Wurth Elektronik

WCAP-FTXH Film capacitors

Film capacitors in washing machines need to survive a humid environment. WCAP-FTXH capacitors are designed for harsh environmental conditions, passing a 1000-hour test at 85°C and 85% relative humidity with the rated voltage applied.

WCAP-FTXH have self-healing properties, due to the polypropylene dielectric. If a short circuit occurs in the component it can vaporise the defect, thereby restoring intact dielectric properties.
