#150246 - Differential mode chokes?
Responding to: ???'s previous message

With a factory fabricated modul fullfilling the CE standards you won't have any trouble. But a self fabricated can make trouble! Use a mains filter, connect the output GND via a low inductive cap to the input GND (eventually protection earth) and feed the cable (both 24V and GND!) through a soft ferrite toroid choke.

Of course, the output voltage must also be low pass filtered relative to GND, to remove the ripple.

Usually a shielding of 24V line isn't needed. Depends a bit on the actual 24V supply line filtering in your sensor. Normally a twisting is enough. At least, avoid the introduce of loop areas.

Thanks , actually the supply is a DC/DC converter it steps down 110VDC to 24VDC . Mains filter I am not sure would be feasible I guess . I dont understand "Feeding soft ferrite toroid choke" does that means physically turning the VCC and GND through two separate choke? , are 2-3 turns OK .Kai do you mean something like this ---> http://www.tdk.com.hk/english/p...831_SF.pdf

... as long as the ground line is not signal return (use differential or optocoupled signalling) there are no problems.

I am infact sending power supply to remote sensor.
