Noise Filter Goes from Dancing Water Fountain to General Industry

July 5, 2012
WAGO Corporation’s DIN-rail mount 288 Series Signal Noise Filter removes disturbances from incoming power for industrial control panels.

WAGO Corporation’s DIN-rail mount 288 Series Signal Noise Filter removes disturbances from incoming power for industrial control panels. The 288-2003 pairs a 10A/120VAC Receptacle, common mode choke and WAGO 740 Series PCB Terminal Blocks on a 1.75’’ wide open assembly. Initially developed as a custom product by WAGO’s Engineering Services division for aquatic show control systems (dancing water fountains), 288 Series is now a standard product.

288 Series eliminates placing noise filter components outside of panels at upstream power sources. Integrated in a cabinet, the cost-effective unit provides EMI suppression to clean power signals for sensitive controllers or electronics such as data recorders. Employing CAGE CLAMP Spring Pressure Connection Technology, 740 Series Terminal Blocks ensure reliability within 288 Series’ 0 to +40°C operation range. All terminations are maintenance-free, resisting both vibrations and current-induced thermal cycling. Manufactured at WAGO’s Germantown , Wis. HQ, 288 Series can be tailored to customer specifications.
