- 15H ±15% inductance at rated 100 mA DC current
- 256 ohm ±15% DC resistance; 500 VDC maximum operating voltage
- Open-bracket channel mount, mounting style C14H (A 4.03 in x C 2.63 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 159M is a 15 henry filter choke rated for 100 mA DC and 500 VDC maximum operating voltage, for high voltage power supply filtering where both high inductance and higher voltage headroom matter.
It uses the largest C14H frame, which gives it a 500 VDC rating versus 400 VDC on the 15H 158L, at the cost of a heavier 2.25 lb unit.
Electrically, the 159M is specified at 15H ±15% with its inductance measured at the rated 100 mA DC. DC resistance is 256 ohms ±15% and the maximum operating voltage is 500 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 C14H: the series table lists A 4.03 in, B 2.25 in, C 2.63 in and D 3.56 in with a 0.19 in mounting hole. Weight is 2.25 lb in the series table and 2.3 lbs (1.04 kg) shipping weight. The part is RoHS and REACH compliant (UNSPSC 39121301, UPC 623980204604).
Ideal For
- High voltage power supply filtering
- DC reactor for supply rails up to 500 VDC at 100 mA
