Features and benefits
Suitable for fast rotating fields up to 600 Hz
Conversion of the PWM output signal (symmetrical
voltage components) of motor drives into a smooth
sine wave with low residual ripple
Elimination of premature motor damage caused by
high dv/dt, overvoltages, motor overheating and
eddy current losses
Significantly increased service life of expensive
(high-speed) motors
Reduction of the pulse load of motor drive IGBTs
and the parasitic losses on long shielded motor
cables
Less interference propagation towards neighboring
equipment or lines
Advanced choke design to minimize filter losses
and voltage drop
IP 20 protection, touch-safe terminals and
temperature monitoring function to increase overall
equipment safety
Typical applications
Motor drives and motors in high-speed applications,
like:
High-speed spindles
Textile machinery
Lasers
Military appliances (400 Hz)
Motor drive applications with medium to long motor
cables and/or with multiple motors in parallel, like:
Pumps
Conveyors
