Due to the high saturation fl ux density
of iron powder (950...1600 mT) these
ring cores are very suitable for output
chokes carrying high DC currents.
Another application is found in lamp
dimmers as ballast choke.
The cores are made of electrolytic iron
powder, mixed with a small amount of
resin for insulation. They are coated
with polyamide 11 (thickness 0.1 - 0.3
mm). The isolation voltage between
core and winding is up to 1500 V.
