Introducing Fair-Rite's New Oval Clip-It™️ Cores and Oval Snap-It®️ Cores

Fair-Rite, a global innovator in electronic components, have released two new products: the Oval Clip-It™️ Cores and the Oval Snap-It®️ Cores. These innovative cores are designed to make electronic noise suppression easier, more effective, and more adaptable to modern applications. Whether you’re working with automotive systems, industrial equipment, or consumer electronics, these new solutions are built to meet your needs seamlessly.


What Are Oval Clip-It™️ Cores and Oval Snap-It®️ Cores?

Oval Clip-It™️ Cores and Oval Snap-It®️ Cores are ferrite-based components tailored to mitigate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and improve signal integrity. These cores are part of Fair-Rite’s commitment to offering innovative, efficient, and versatile solutions for today’s electronics.

  • Oval Clip-It™️ Cores feature built-in ridges for high grip and low profile, designed for easy mounting and removal. Their secure clasp mechanism, made with durable 301 stainless steel, ensures a firm hold.

  • Oval Snap-It®️ Cores include anti-slip grips, cable-tie anchors, and a cylindrical hinge. Made from high-temperature nylon material, these cores are engineered for robustness and ease of installation.

 

Both designs share the oval geometry that offers enhanced impedance, making them more efficient than traditional round cores.

Applications of Oval Ferrite Cores

Oval cores excel in various electronic and electrical applications thanks to their versatile design and superior performance characteristics. Key areas where these products stand out include:


Noise Suppression in Motor Drives and Power Supplies

Oval cores are prime candidates for use as common-mode chokes, effectively reducing EMI generated by motor drives and power supplies. This ensures compliance with industry noise standards while protecting sensitive components.


Multiple or Multi-Conductor Cables

Both Oval Clip-It™️ and Snap-It®️ Cores are designed to accommodate multiple cables running side-by-side, providing efficient noise suppression without increasing the system’s size or complexity.


Heavy-Gauge Wires and Bus Bars

These cores are robust enough to handle high-current applications, such as those involving bus bars or heavy-gauge wires. Their high impedance per unit volume ensures effective performance even in demanding scenarios.


Filtering in Inductive Circuits

By attenuating unwanted frequencies, these cores help improve power and signal quality in inductive circuits, contributing to more reliable and efficient system operations.


Key Benefits of Fair-Rite’s Oval Cores

The innovative design of Oval Clip-It™️ and Snap-It®️ Cores delivers several advantages over traditional round cores. Let’s look at the benefits they provide.


Enhanced Impedance and Efficiency

Oval geometry offers greater impedance per unit volume, enabling these cores to suppress higher levels of EMI without increasing size or weight. This makes them especially useful for compact or lightweight applications.


Smaller Size and Lower Profile

Compared to their round counterparts, Oval Snap-It®️ Cores and Oval Clip-It™️ Cores take up less space while maintaining excellent performance. Their compact form factors make them ideal for modern electronics where space is at a premium.


Ease of Installation and Flexibility

  • Clip-It™️ Cores: The clip design allows for quick, secure attachment and removal, making them perfect for applications that require frequent reconfigurations.

  • Snap-It®️ Cores: Features like anti-slip grips and cable-tie ridges make installation straightforward, ensuring a reliable fit even in challenging environments.


Robust Material and Design

  • High-Temperature Nylon: Used in Snap-It®️ Cores, this material withstands operating temperatures up to 125°C, ensuring durability in demanding conditions.

  • 301 Stainless Steel: Found in Clip-It™️ Cores, this material enhances durability and maintains a secure hold over time.


Both Fair-Rite Oval Snap-It Cores and Clip-It Cores are available in the following materials:

  • 75 material: Intended for a range of common-mode inductor, as well as broadband and pulse transformer applications. 75 material is a high permeability MnZn ferrite.

  • 31 material: Designed specifically for EMI suppression applications from 1 MHZ up to 500 MHz. This MZn ferrite does not have the dimensional resonance limitations associated with typical MZn ferrites.

  • 44 material: NiZn ferrite developed to combine high suppression performance (30 MHz to 500 MHz) with a very high DC resistivity.

  • 61 material: With excellent stability characteristics, 61 material is a high frequency NiZn ferrite developed for a range of inductive applications up to 25 MHz. Also used in EMI applications for noise frequency suppression above 200 MHz.
