Hammond 1536E 4.9 uH 15 A Heavy Duty Hash Choke

The 1536E is a heavy duty hash choke from the 1536 R.F. Chokes Series, rated at 4.9 uH (+/-20%) with a maximum DC current of 15 A. The 1536 Series is built for high inductance and high current, making the 1536E a fit for power-line hash and RF noise filtering where the choke must pass substantial DC current.

The 1536E handles 15 A DC with a 0.016 ohm DC resistance and a 42 MHz self-resonant frequency. The manufacturer groups this part under the 1536 Series "Heavy Duty Hash" designation, alongside other values from 3.35 uH to 1000 uH.

Construction is based on a molded powdered iron core, and all chokes in the series include a vinyl insulation covering with 1.25 in long leads (+/- 0.1 in). The coil diameter is 0.50 in (13 mm) and the core length is 1.25 in (32 mm). Inductance for this part is measured at 7.9 MHz.

The manufacturer's drawing for the 1536E marks it MADE IN CANADA and specifies inductance of 4.90µH ±20% at a 7.9 MHz test frequency, with dimensions A 1.250" ±0.030, C 1.500" ±0.100, D 0.591" ±0.030 and E 0.068" ±0.010.

Electrical summary: DC resistance 0.016 ohms, a self-resonant frequency of 42 MHz, and 15 A maximum DC current. The part is RoHS and REACH compliant, with a listed shipping weight of 0.05 lbs (0.02 kg). Its UPC is 623980296104 for receiving and inventory matching.
