SFX40 noise/block filters.. 3 * 72mm = very wide

Post by **Noel** » Mon Feb 25, 2008 6:35 pm

Ben vandaag met een nieuwe zekeringen kast aan het stoeien, en aan het kijken of er ook ruimte is voor de 3 sperfilters.

Zijn die dingen van Xanura echt 72mm breed?

Anyway.. The question was about the width of the filters (sperfilters), and if they are really 72mm each.

Thank you for the answer Bwired. I guess I need to create some more room for the 3 filters.

One more question for now.
As I'm on a 3 phase system, do I also need 3 times a fasekoppelaar?

No prob, forget it sometimes myself as well

Thanks
PS: you know there is a IEspell button which is very handy. just install the free plugin and you can use it everywhere.

And you need a fase coupler too, but i think thats only 1 device. Pieter knows..

As far as I know, you need a coupler module for every phase.

At this shop they sell phase coupler which only needs one module. It doesn't include a filter/blocker.

But they notice that the S4825 is intended for an X10 setup without micromodules. Today I sent them an email about this restriction but didnt received an answer yet. Anyone familiar with this module??

The same goes for the Xanura FKX phase coupler, you only need 1 fase coupler to get your X10 over the 3 phase powerline going. And it can handle all the X10 / A10 modules including micro modules. If you have a 3 phase powerline system and you need the noise/blocking filter SFX40 then you need 3 of them, 1 for every phase. I would start first with the phase coupler see how it works and if necessary add the SFX40 filters.
I have a Phase coupler running at Bwired on my 3 phase powerline and not yet SFX40 filters.

Function FKX
The phase coupler transmits Xanura signals that enter via one
phase to the other two phases. The signals are also amplified.
The signal on the phase from which the Xanura signal has been
received is amplified and transmitted on the same phase. The
phase coupler can also be used as a single phase signal
amplifier.

Three phase connection FKX
The phase coupler must be connected to a three phase group
with a maximum rated current of 16 A. It does not matter which
phase is connected to which core, as long as the blue core is
connected to neutral. The earth core does not need to be
connected, as it is not connected in the phase coupler either.
