New generation of passive harmonic filters has evolutionary modular concept

Schaffner is setting a new benchmark with its product offering of harmonics mitigation solutions. Ecosine evo harmonic filters utilise superior technology to reliably control excessive power line harmonics with an evolutionary modular product concept. With the new filters FN 3441, FN 3451 and FN 3453 the company now also offers dedicated filters which are designed for three-phase diode rectifiers with a DC-link choke included in the drive. They guarantee compliance with the toughest requirements of IEEE-519 and other stringent international power quality standards while being the most designed for purpose and compact passive harmonic filters available on the market. The filters offer excellent performance at rated power with minimal reactive power even at partial or no-load conditions. With the installation of the new filters the electrical infrastructure and its utilization are much more efficient and reliable. Added benefits of installation include increased service life cycle of electrical equipment and reduced energy costs. The filters are easy to install and maintain and are fully supported in the company’s well known online power quality simulator and can be configured using the new online configurator.
