Fairview, PA - Spectrum Advanced Specialty Products introduces an EMI filter plate with special epoxy potting and a rubber pin protector for applications where rough handling or challenging environmental conditions are typical. Spectrum's value added filter plates utilize ceramic capacitors as the filter element and the special potting protects their electrical and mechanical integrity during shipping and typical use. The epoxy potting reduces the likelihood of any physical stresses, which might crack the capacitors and cause them to fail. Additionally, Spectrum has added a rubber pin protector to prevent the leads from being bent during transit and handling. Bent leads could also cause the capacitors to crack as well as prevent a proper union with a connector.

Spectrum's filter plates are available in Easy Mate^®, Easy Mate^® Jr., bolt-in and shrouded latch styles. These plates provide an EMI filtered signal line between electronic modules, excellent isolation from 5 MHz to 18 GHz, and are available in a variety of plate sizes and up to 74 lines per plate in hi-density (2mm) and 60 pins per plate in standard density (.100") configurations.

Spectrum offers a variety of value added features to meet customer manufacturing needs, as well as designing plates that meet the most stringent high reliability specifications. In addition to epoxy potting and pin protectors, Spectrum provides custom assemblies with varying cable lengths and terminations, ribbon connectors, filtered headers, flat conductor cables and lead stabilizers.

Spectrum's epoxy potted filter plates with pin protector have pricing ranging from $20 to $100 depending on configurations and quantities required. These value added filter plates are ideal for medical, telecom, aerospace and industrial applications where rough handling would adversely affect its stability.
