As well as the famous Phillips 3C85 material, I find that Micrometals toroids type  T130-2 (1.3 inch) and T200-2 (2-inch) toroids work quite well at 137 kHz. I bought some from a stall at Kempton Park rally, and I'll post the name of the vendor here just as soon as I can remember who it was! You can also use air-cored solenoid windings for these inductors, but if you use wire that is too thin, they will also heat up as the circulating currents within the LPF can be quite high.

 

Look out for them at rallies if you get the chance. The T130-2 and T200-2 toroids are coloured red with one grey cheek.

 

Good luck and 73

Hi,

 

Any suggestions for suppliers of Toroids made from 3C85/90 material rather than stripping down old SMPS?
