Variable frequency drive output filters

Variable frequency drive output filters

Variable frequency drive dedicated output filters are mounted between the VFD drive and the motor, to reduce the higher harmonic, inhibit the variable frequency drive surge voltage on output side.

Why VFD need a output filter?

 

  1. Reduce IGBT output harmonic effectively;
  2. Inhibit dv/dt, prolong motor service life;
  3. Protect the drive’s electronics components from shock current impact;
  4. Improve the drive system reliability.

VFD output filter parameters:

  1. Installation Location: indoor (floor or wall mount)
  2. Wiring: Cable or busbar;
  3. Rated voltage: 3phage 100 ~ 480V AC, 1phase 100 ~ 240V AC
  4. Rated frequency: 50/60Hz
  5. Switching frequency: 2-16KHZ
  6. Compressive strength: 3000VAC 10mA for 60 seconds
  7. Overload capacity: 1.5 times of rated current for 1 minute, 3 times per hour
  8. Protection: IP65
  9. Cooling ways: Free air convection or forced air cooling
  10. Working conditions: Altitude ≤ 2000m
  11. Ambient temperature: -25 ℃ ~ +85 ℃
  12. Relative Humidity: 90% (in +20 ℃)

VFD output filter installation

  1. The variable frequency drive dedicated input/output filters can NOT be replaced each other.
  2. The VFD dedicated output filter need to be grounded well.
  3. Well connection between the VFD drive dedicated input filter’s case and the metal part of the cabinet, and the grounding resistance should be as low as possible.
  4. In variable frequency drive, UPS and other high-power devices, the output filter should be installed close to the devices’ output side, if possible, it’s better to install the output filters inside the devices, power lines and output lines shall be shield and cannot be exposed in the cabinet.
  5. Ensure the wire as short as possible between the variable speed drive and the motor, and cannot cross or parallel with the variable frequency drive power cord and other control, communication lines.
