MRC Rolls for suppressing harmful interference currents, especially in use in radiated areas

New devices must be checked in accordance with the EMC directive before they can be introduced in a country of the European Union.

Electromagnetic interferences with frequencies of up to about 30 MHz tend to be conducted via cables and current paths or to be coupled between cables via inductive / capacitive mechanisms. Interference signals above 30 MHz, on the other hand, are emitted by metallic parts, components or cables that act as antennas.

In EU generally recognized frequency ranges for conducted and radiated interference:

Frequency Range (kHz)

These interferences can be suppressed or attenuated in various ways to restore compatibility with valid EMC directives (2014/30/EU).

Conducted Interferences

Power line interference and noise from switch mode power supplies are major sources of conducted EMC interference. AC power lines are the most important channel through which conducted electromagnetic interference can enter or exit equipment.

Radiated Interferences

Shielding prevents emitted interference signals from entering or leaving a housing. Developers can use various shielding mechanisms. 

If EMC problems are only discovered later in a running project (unshielded cables have been chosen for reasons of cost or selected shielding approaches prove to be impractical) a quick and convenient solution of absorbing radiated interference is required.

MRC Components GmbH & Co. KG offers nanocrystalline rolls which suppress HF interferences and contribute to replace the expensive shielding of motor cables, easy to retrofit, to keep the required EMC limits. These rolls can be used inside housings as well as outside. They are simply attached over L1 + L2 + L3 lines (without N and PE) and absorb the harmful RF noise before it is emitted. This releases a small amount of heat that is simply dissipated to the environment. These absorbers can currently be used in engines up to approx. 1 MW.
