Harmonic filters raise power system efficiency
Load-applied passive harmonic filters represent the ideal solution for three-phase power electronics with six-pulse rectifier front ends.
The multistage design of the FN2070 provides high attenuation performance of both common- and differential-mode interference, particularly at higher frequencies.
The design combines high-value components with an elegant layout to reduce the size of the filter.
For example, the 16A version combines two stages of 2.8mH inductors with dual 1uF X capacitors and dual 4.7nF Y capacitors, yet still comes in a housing measuring just 99 x 86 x 58mm.
Options for the FN2070 include three choices of input/output terminations and variants specifically for medical and safety-critical applications.
For motor-drive applications, the performance of the filter can be adjusted by varying the Y capacitor value. Request a free brochure from Schaffner ...
