Product Description

A SIEMENS Filter Module is a specialized device used within industrial control systems to protect sensitive electronics and maintain system integrity by mitigating electromagnetic interference (EMI) and improving power quality. These modules are primarily designed to:

1. Suppress Noise: Filter out high-frequency noise and voltage spikes that are generated by switching operations (e.g., motor contactors, variable speed drives, solenoids) and conducted through power lines or signal cables.

2. Ensure Compliance: Help the automation system comply with stringent international standards for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and radio frequency interference (RFI).

Depending on the application, a filter module can be a Line Filter (for power supply inputs) or a Signal Filter (for analog or digital signal lines).

Product Parameters

Product Advantages

• Increased System Reliability: Protects sensitive components like CPU and I/O modules from damaging voltage transients and noise, significantly reducing intermittent faults and system crashes.

• EMC Compliance: Helps the entire control cabinet meet rigorous industry EMC standards, making certification easier and ensuring legal operation in regulated environments.

• Improved Signal Integrity: For analog signals, filtering ensures that the measured or controlled values are clean and accurate, preventing “jitter” and measurement errors caused by noise.

• Component Longevity: Reduces electrical stress on power supply components and switching devices, thereby extending the overall service life of the automation hardware.

• Easy Integration: Designed for straightforward installation into existing SIEMENS automation systems with standardized housing and connection terminals.

Important Considerations

• Proper Grounding: The filter’s performance is highly dependent on effective grounding. Ensure the filter housing is securely connected to the cabinet’s low-impedance ground reference.

• Installation Location: Install power line filters as close as possible to the point of power entry into the cabinet to prevent noise from coupling to internal wiring.

• Wire Routing: Maintain separation between the “dirty” (unfiltered) side wiring and the “clean” (filtered) side wiring to prevent noise from bypassing the filter via capacitive or inductive coupling.

• Correct Rating: Ensure the filter’s voltage and current ratings are adequate for the load it is intended to protect; using an undersized filter can lead to overheating or poor performance.

• Thermal Management: Consider the heat dissipation of high-current filters and ensure adequate ventilation within the cabinet.

Product Applications

Filter modules are necessary in any industrial environment where electromagnetic noise is prevalent or where high accuracy is required.

• Variable Speed Drive (VSD) Systems: Used on the input and output of VSDs to suppress harmonics and high-frequency noise generated by the drive’s switching components.

• High-Noise Environments: Installed in cabinets located near welding equipment, heavy machinery, induction heating, or large motor contactors.

• Analog Measurement: Applied to the signal lines of sensitive analog inputs (e.g., strain gauges, high-precision temperature sensors) to ensure noise-free measurement.

• Radio Equipment Proximity: Essential in facilities where radio transmitters, antennas, or wireless communication equipment are in use, to prevent RFI from affecting control logic.

• Long Cable Runs: Used to mitigate noise pickup on long signal or communication cables that act as antennas for environmental noise.
