- 8H ±15% inductance at rated 100 mA DC current
- 259 ohm ±15% DC resistance; 400 VDC maximum operating voltage
- Open-bracket channel mount, mounting style C9H (A 3.25 in x C 2.00 in)
- Vacuum impregnated with polyurethane varnish for quiet operation and long life
- Every unit Hipot tested (100%) at 1,500 VAC; leads minimum 5 in long
- RoHS and REACH compliant
The 157M is an 8 henry filter choke rated at 100 mA DC, intended for smoothing the output of high voltage DC power supplies in amplifiers, test gear and OEM equipment.
With 259 ohms of DC resistance it sits between the higher-inductance 157L and the lower-inductance 157Q in the C9H frame size, giving a middle-of-the-range choice for 100 mA circuits.
Electrically, the 157M is specified at 8H ±15% with its inductance measured at the rated 100 mA DC. DC resistance is 259 ohms ±15% and the maximum operating voltage is 400 VDC. As with every choke in the 153-159 Series, it will show less inductance at slightly higher currents and more inductance at lower currents, so size it to the actual load current.
Construction follows the series' economical open-bracket channel mount, with leads at least 5 in long. Units are vacuum impregnated with polyurethane varnish for quiet operation and long life, and every unit is Hipot tested (100%) at 1,500 VAC.
Mechanically it uses mounting style C9H: the series table lists A 3.25 in, B 1.75 in, C 2.00 in and D 2.81 in with a 0.19 in mounting hole. Weight is 1 lb in the series table and 1 lbs (0.45 kg) shipping weight. The part is RoHS and REACH compliant (UNSPSC 39121301, UPC 623980203607).
Ideal For
- High voltage power supply filtering
- DC reactor for supply rails up to 400 VDC at 100 mA
- Open-bracket channel mounting in equipment chassis
- Replacement filter choke for existing 157M designs
