Key Parameters

Parameter Value Significance for Substitution
Voltage Rating (AC) 250V Critical - must match or exceed rated voltage
Current Rating 30A Critical - must match or exceed rated current
Filter Type Single Phase Critical - determines circuit configuration compatibility
Frequency Range 50/60Hz Important - operating frequency specification
Mounting Type Chassis Mount Important - physical installation method
Termination Style Threaded Post (10-32) Application-dependent - affects connection method
Configuration Single Stage Application-dependent - affects filtering performance
RoHS Status ROHS3 Compliant Regulatory - environmental compliance requirement

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 30ESK6C is determined by matching the following critical parameters:

Critical Parameters (Must Match):

  • Voltage Rating: 250VAC
  • Current Rating: 30A
  • Filter Type: Single Phase
  • Mounting Type: Chassis Mount
  • RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Application-Dependent Parameters (May Vary):

  • Configuration: Single Stage vs. Two Stage (affects filtering characteristics and inductance)
  • Termination Style: Threaded Post (10-32) vs. Terminal Block (affects connection method and installation approach)
  • Frequency Operating Range: 50/60Hz specification

The substitute part B84142A0030R000 meets all critical parameters while offering a two-stage configuration with terminal block termination, providing an alternative for applications where enhanced filtering or different connection methods are acceptable.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (30ESK6C): Select the 30ESK6C when threaded post (10-32) termination is required for your circuit design and single-stage filtering meets application requirements. This part carries CSA, UR, and VDE certifications and is actively manufactured with substantial inventory availability.

Substitute Part Selection (B84142A0030R000): Select the B84142A0030R000 when terminal block termination is preferred or when two-stage filtering provides superior EMC/EMI performance for your application. This part carries cULus and ENEC certifications and is actively manufactured. The two-stage configuration offers enhanced filtering characteristics compared to the single-stage 30ESK6C.

Substitution Constraints: Both parts share identical voltage (250VAC), current (30A), filter type (single phase), and mounting type (chassis mount) specifications. The primary differences are termination style and filter configuration. Selection between these parts depends on your specific termination requirements and filtering performance needs rather than electrical incompatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the B84142A0030R000 directly replace the 30ESK6C in my application?

A: Electrical compatibility is confirmed for both 250VAC and 30A ratings. However, the termination style differs: 30ESK6C uses threaded posts (10-32) while B84142A0030R000 uses terminal blocks. Your circuit design must accommodate the terminal block connection method. Additionally, B84142A0030R000 provides two-stage filtering versus the single-stage design of 30ESK6C.

Q: What is the difference between single-stage and two-stage filter configurations?

A: Single-stage filters (30ESK6C) provide basic EMC/EMI filtering with one filtering section. Two-stage filters (B84142A0030R000) incorporate two filtering sections, typically providing enhanced attenuation of electromagnetic interference across a broader frequency range. Selection depends on your specific EMI suppression requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 30ESK6C and B84142A0030R000 are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental regulations for restricted substances.

Q: What certifications does each part carry?

A: The 30ESK6C carries CSA, UR, and VDE certifications. The B84142A0030R000 carries cULus and ENEC certifications. Both represent recognized international standards bodies, though the specific certifications differ.

Q: Does the frequency operating specification differ between these parts?

A: The 30ESK6C is explicitly rated for 50/60Hz operation. The B84142A0030R000 does not specify an operating frequency range in the provided data. Confirm frequency compatibility with the B84142A0030R000 manufacturer documentation if 50/60Hz operation is a critical requirement.

Q: What is the inductance difference between these filters?

A: The 30ESK6C specifies 1.73mH inductance. The B84142A0030R000 inductance value is not provided in the available data. Inductance affects filtering performance and circuit behavior; obtain this specification from the manufacturer if inductance is a critical design parameter.

Q: How do the packaging formats differ?

A: The 30ESK6C is supplied in bulk packaging, while the B84142A0030R000 is supplied in box packaging. This affects storage, handling, and inventory management but not electrical performance.
