You can ask the manufacturer for ESR and ESL data, but if you have an impedance/frequency graph, you can probably estimate them. The ESL comes from the resonance frequency, where the impedance is a minimum, and that minimum impedance is the ESR.

Thanks, John.

We’re looking for good Y and X capacitors for the EMI net filter.

Our plan is to use metallic Polypropylen / Film X-caps, and ceramic Y-caps.

Select correct voltage range, but can’t find that much information about ESR and ESL in the datasheets. The LTSpice model should have them included anyway.

Anybody here that have “favorites caps” or manufacturers to suggest for EMI netfilter?

Best regards

Amund

Apparently correct, but you should as Schaffner whether the component can be connected like that  and still meet its voltage and current ratings, and whether there are any other matters to take into account.

    This one, https://www.schaffner.com/article/rv8141-50-s03, has 4
    windings. Since we are doing only a 1-phase system, we are
    planning to use 2 windings pr. phase.

    So, when the terminals are like this:

    we plan for such a connection to utilize all four windings:

    Are the terminals connected correct with the windings in series,
    so the complete choke acts as a 1-line CM choke?

    Hi Amund,

    You can breadboard the filter as well.  No compelling need go
    immediately to a PCB only to find you need to change it once or
    twice while you converge on a final design. Careful attention to
    component lead dress and to a general, tidy physical layout is
    important above a few megahertz.

    During troubleshooting in test lab, it is tempting to be quick and
    connect filter solutions with soldering and some wires.

    Instead, you should probably lay out components on a pcb and get
    it as it is described in the books. But in practice, at the test
    lab, you can't do that and the question is how messy can such an
    EMI filter be?

    How long can the wires between CM chokes, capacitors be and when
    you don't solder but use Wago-connectors for interconnection, is
    it so that the filter is almost already destroyed by the impedance
    that you have no control over?

    As we get up in frequency (conducted emission 150kH-30MHz), messy
    design / connection will get more worse when frequency increase,
    but we will get trouble anyway in the 150kH-30MHz range. At least
    from 1MHz. Right?

    BR

    Amund
