COMMERCIAL ITEM DESCRIPTION
FILTER, RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE
The General Services Administration has authorized the use of this
commercial item description (CID) for all federal agencies as a
replacement for Federal Specification W-F-2190/3.
1. SCOPE. This CID covers the general requirements for radio frequency interference (RFI) suppression power line
filters. These filters consist of capacitors and inductors used in combination with each other and are provided with
resistors as a safety feature. Filters covered by this CID are intended for commercial/industrial applications and
should not be used in military systems needing stringent environmental and electrical requirements.
2. CLASSIFICATION. This CID uses a classification system which is included in the Part Identification Number
(PIN) as shown in the following example (see 7.1).

3. SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS.
3.1 Interface and physical dimensions. Filters supplied to this CID shall be as specified herein (see figures 1 and 2).
3.2. Voltage rating. The voltage rating shall be 120 V ac at 60 Hz; 250 V ac at 50 Hz.
3.3 Operating frequency. The operating frequency shall be 50/60 Hz.
3.4 Current rating. The current rating shall be as specified in table I.
3.5 Operating ambient temperature range. The operating ambient temperature range shall be -10 C to +40 C at
rated current.
3.6 Maximum leakage current, line-to-ground. The maximum leakage current, line-to-ground, shall be 0.5 mA at
120 V ac, 60 Hz; 1.0 mA at 250 V ac, 50 Hz.
3.7 Hipot rating (1 minute). The hipot rating shall be 2,250 V dc line-to-ground; 1,450 V dc line-to-line.
