Line Filtering Configurations For Controls

These three diagrams show you filter configurations for removing input power
noise. Choose the one best suited for your system. For very dirty or critical
applications - use a microcomputer-regulated power supply or Uninterruptable
Power Supply (U.P.S.). Don't fasten common mode line filters or filters with
metal cases to metal that is at ground potential. This prevents ground loops
and maintain filter effectiveness.

where noise can be
reintroduced to the

NOTE:
To prevent ground
loops do not fasten
common mode line
filters or filters with
metal that is at
ground potential.
Doing so will reduce
filter effectiveness.
