Product Name
Leister 107.161 CHOKE COIL 10UH/0.8A BENT LOOP
Brief Description
This is a replacement choke coil (inductor) with an inductance of 10 microhenries (uH) and a current rating of 0.8 amperes (A), featuring a bent loop design. It is an essential electrical component designed to filter electrical signals, suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI), and regulate power within electronic circuits. Specifically, it serves as a spare part for Leister hot air tools, such as the Leister Hot Jet S.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Filtering electrical signals in power supplies and voltage regulation circuits.- Suppressing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI) in electronic devices.- As a replacement component in Leister hot air tools, such as the Hot Jet S, to maintain proper electrical function and performance.- Used in DC-DC converters and other power management applications.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Electrical Services or Products- General Manufacturing- Construction/Building Services- Plastic Fabrication- Distributers & Resellers- Industrial Supply- LED/Electronics- Automotive Service/Repair- Marine- Tarp, Fabric, Awning Manufacturing
Special and Unique Features
- Specifically designed as a replacement part for Leister hot air tools, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance within these systems.- Bent loop design, likely for specific mounting or connection within the Leister tool.- Functions as a choke coil, effectively blocking higher-frequency AC while allowing lower-frequency or DC to pass.- Contributes to energy efficiency in power supplies and voltage regulation due to low core losses.- Can be part of magnetically shielded constructions to reduce external magnetic effects and EMI levels.
Key Properties
- Inductance: 10 microhenries (uH).- Current Rating: 0.8 amperes (A).- Type: Choke Coil / Inductor.- Function: EMI/RFI suppression, signal filtering, power regulation.- Form Factor: Bent loop (specific to this Leister part).- Low DC resistance (for some types of inductors).- High reliability and high soldering heat resistance (for general inductors of this type).
Surface Compatibility
This product is an internal electrical component and does not directly interact with external surfaces in terms of adhesion or material compatibility. Its compatibility is with the electrical circuit board and housing of the Leister hot air tool it is designed for.
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other choke coils or inductors with similar electrical specifications (10uH inductance, 0.8A current rating) from different manufacturers could potentially serve as substitutes in general electronic applications. However, for specific Leister equipment, only genuine Leister replacement parts (SKU 107.161 or potentially 100.810 if it's a compatible variant) are recommended to ensure proper fit, function, and safety.- Generic SMD power inductors or multilayer chip inductors with matching specifications (e.g., 10uH, 0.8A) are available from manufacturers like Coilmaster Electronics or Vishay for broader electronic design purposes.
Comparison Note
The Leister 107.161 choke coil is specifically tailored as a replacement part for Leister hot air tools, such as the Hot Jet S. While generic 10uH/0.8A inductors exist from various manufacturers (e.g., Coilmaster, Vishay) for general electronic applications like power supplies and EMI filtering, the "bent loop" design and Leister branding suggest a form factor and quality assurance specific to Leister's equipment. Using non-original parts might lead to compatibility issues, reduced performance, or voided warranties for the Leister tool. Its primary value lies in its direct compatibility and role in maintaining the functionality of specialized industrial hot air equipment.
