Ecosine Flex FN3458

Ecosine Flex, 200-480 VAC 60 Hz 10% THDi Passive Harmonic Filters

FN3458

Ecosine Flex, 200-480 VAC 60 Hz 10% THDi Passive Harmonic Filters

  • Reduce THDi to 10% (15% if no DC-Link present in the drive)
  • Filters for diode rectifier with and without DC-link choke and thyristor rectifier
  • Help to comply with EN 61000-3-12, IEEE 519 and other PQ standards
  • Increase the efficiency of energy utilization
  • Most compact design
  • Plug and play, ready to use

Features and Benefits

FN3458 (60 Hz) models of the Ecosine Flex product family represent the very compact economical series with a THDi performance of <10% for drives with 4% Ldc and <15% for drives without Ldc.

They are ideal for non-linear three-phase equipment with B6 rectifier front-end that do not require the industry leading <5% THDi performance provided by Schaffner Ecosine Evo filters.

The performance targets the requirement of EN 61000-3-12 and IEEE 519 for Isc/IL <50. Schaffner Ecosine filters help to unburden the electrical infrastructure from excess loading and heat caused by current harmonics, and therefore support a better utilization of electric system capacity.

Lower harmonics also reduce the risk of system resonances and potential downtime of sensitive electronic equipment.

FN3458 filters upgrade standard motor drives to low-harmonic drives quickly and easily.
