Component Descriptions

AC Reactors, Input Side

This is useful in suppressing harmonics induced on the power supply lines, or when the main power voltage imbalance exceeds 3% (and power source capacity is more than 500 kVA), or to smooth out line fluctuations. It also improves the power factor.

In the following cases for a general-purpose inverter, a large peak current flows on the main power supply side, and is able to destroy the inverter module:

If the unbalanced factor of the power supply is 3% or higher

If the power supply capacity is at least 10 times greater than the inverter capacity (the power supply capacity is 500 kVA or more)

If abrupt power supply changes are expected

Examples of these situations include:

1.Several inverters are interconnected (input side) with a short bus.

2.A thyristor converter and an inverter are interconnected (input side) with a short bus.

3.An installed phase advance capacitor opens and closes.

Where these conditions exist or when the connected equipment must be highly reliable, install an AC reactor between the power supply and the inverter. Also, where the effects of an indirect lightning strike is possible, install a lightning conductor.

Example calculation:

VRS = 205V, VST = 203V, VTR = 197V,

where VRS is R-S line voltage, VST is S-T line voltage, VTR is T-R line voltage

Please refer to the documentation that comes with the RF noise filter for installation instructions.

AC Reactors, Output Side

This reactor reduces the vibrations in the motor caused by the inverter’s switching waveforms, by smoothing the waveforms to approximate commercial power quality. It is also useful when wiring from the inverter to the motor is more than 10m in length, to reduce reflected voltage wave phenomenon. Please refer to the documentation that comes with the RF noise filter for installation instructions.
