E-mobility and the supply of the energy required for charging facilities are taking centre stage in automotive electronics, says Holger Urban, Schaffner Group

Schaffner has introduced a new single-phase EMC filter. With a 350 VAC rating, the filter can be used in typical single-phase applications (120 VAC and 230 VAC). Or industrial applications when utilising phase to neutral voltage off three phase power. 

Schaffner will be presenting their latest innovations from their EMC, Power Quality and Power Magnetics divisions at SPS 2019. The new FN 3287/88 EMC filter series introduces innovations in 3-phase EMC filters and is now available with low leakage currents (<1mA) versions for general machine and plant construction.

The high-performance filter series FN 9262 (with fuse holder) and FN 9266 (with dual pole switch), have been developed by Schaffner for applications demanding high RFI attenuation performance. They represent an enhanced version of the already market proven FN 9260 and FN 9264 filter families. 

Specialist in the fields of electromagnetic compatibility and power quality, Schaffner, has introduced the new FN 3287 and FN 3288 series designed for motor drives, power drive systems and many other power converter applications. These innovative filters are optimised to best serve the requirements of machine tool and machinery equipment.

International electromagnetic compatibility company, Schaffner has introduced a new series of locking cables for any IEC C14 application. The newest connector in the IL13 family sets a benchmark in space limited locking situations. Due to its angled construction the connector can be beneficially used with devices standing next to a wall or in table-top applications. 

International specialist in the fields of electromagnetic compatibility and power quality, Schaffner, has announced the introduction of the new AC line reactor series RWK 3044 and RWK 3062. RWK 3044 and RWK 3062 are designed for 400 and 690VAC power networks, and provide impedance of four and two percent respectively. 

In fiscal year 2017/18 the Schaffner Group continued its profitable growth, with sales expanding in all three divisions. Compared to the prior year (PY), order intake (i.e., new orders) rose by 12% to CHF 223.5 million (PY: CHF 199.5 million). Gross margin was 28.4%, as in the prior year. 

Specialist in the field of electromagnetic compatibility and power quality, Schaffner, have introduced the new FN 3287 and FN 3288 series designed for motor drives, power drive systems and many other power converter applications. These innovative filters are not only optimised to best serve the requirements of machine tool and machinery equipment but will find wider application areas. 

Products and services from its EMC and Automotive Divisions will be showcased by Schaffner at Electronica 2018. EMC filters specifically designed for medical devices offer end users simple solutions to EMC issues and get product certifications without adding any additional risk to the patient.

  Electronica 2018 Preview: RFI filters from Schaffner are equipped withIEC Inlet C14 or C20. The dual-stage FN 9255 filters have been developed for high frequency applications, above 30MHz and join the company’s existing FN 92XX filter families.

  Medical devices are increasingly using sensitive analogue electronics, wireless technologies and microprocessors, which brings EMC considerations to the fore, says David Armitage, Schaffner

  The Board of Directors of Schaffner Holding AG appointed Daniel G. Zeidler as Head of Power Magnetics division and member of the Executive Committee. He will take up his duties at Schaffner no later than 1st March 2019.

Schaffner is again setting a benchmark with its product offering for harmonics mitigation solutions. ecosine active sync utilises superior technology to reliably mitigate excessive harmonics with an evolutionary modular product concept. With the new ecosine active sync filters FN3530/31/40/41, FN3532/42 and FN3545 Schaffner now offers the most effective harmonic mitigation solution available, especially for mixed load and dynamic load profil...

Schaffner has had their FN 9280 and FN 9290 families of market-leading high-end IEC Power Entry Modules (PEM) approved to IEC62368-1. Certification to IEC62368-1 enables customers manufacturing Audio/Video, Information and Communications Technology equipment to comply more easily with the requirements of the new technology-independent ‘hazard-based’ standards approach.

  A new series of single-phase filters has been announced by Schaffner. The new high performance filters are an extension to the standard variants of the FN 2070 series and are designed to meet the highest performance demands for single phase filters.

Schaffner has announced the introduction of the eco sine active sync, a new generation of active harmonic filters. Drawing on the company’s knowledge and experience of applications and solutions in power quality the new modular ecosine active sync series offers best-fit technical and cost effective solutions for the most demanding harmonic mitigation tasks and is suitable for use with any kind of non-linear load.

  At this year's SPS IPC Drives trade fair in Nuremberg, Germany on the 28th to 30th November, Schaffner will be exhibiting and introducing product innovations from its EMC, power quality and power magnetics divisions.

It’s not just plugging a connector in to your car and letting it charge. Here Holger Urban, Product Marketing Manager, Schaffner International AG discusses more. With the increasing demand of EV charging installations the International Electrotehnical Commission (IEC) is defining global standards which involve among other important aspects of EMC regulations and safety considerations.
