EMI Filter

Figure

EMIS announced the availability of the MF420-2CF-M MRI Filter, a specialized electrical filter for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) rooms to block unwanted electromagnetic interference (EMI) and RF interference (RFI) from entering or leaving the MRI environment. Designing or selecting an EMI filter for high-field MRI systems is very different from general electronics filtering, as MRI environments are extremely sensitive to RF noise and require shielded-room integrity as well as ultra-high attenuation across wide frequency bands.
