Overview

The Hammond Power SKU CD1X0160E1 is a Type 1 dV/dT filter engineered to safeguard motors from damaging voltage spikes and premature insulation breakdown, particularly when paired with variable frequency drives (VFDs) and in applications with extended motor cable lengths. This robust filter is rated for a continuous current of 160 amperes and operates effectively up to 600 volts, making it a suitable component for diverse industrial motor control systems. When VFDs are utilized, especially with cable runs exceeding 1000 feet, the inherent inductance of the motor cable can create a resonant circuit with the VFD's output capacitance. This resonance can generate significant voltage spikes, often referred to as dV/dT, which can surpass the motor's insulation rating. Such overvoltage events lead to accelerated motor insulation degradation and ultimately, premature motor failure. The HPS dV/dT filter functions as a critical low-pass filter, actively attenuating these high-frequency voltage transients. By effectively reducing the rate of voltage rise (dV/dT) at the motor terminals, this filter significantly extends the operational lifespan of motors and contributes to a reduction in overall maintenance expenditures. Its Type 1 enclosure ensures protection in various industrial settings.
  • The dV/dT filter combines an inductor and parallel resistor network to mitigate both high frequency components and voltage spikes between the VFD and motor.
  • The filter can mitigate the effects of reflected wave voltages greater than what a reactor alone can accomplish.
  • The filter provides protection to the motor by slowing down the rate of voltage increase and minimizes the damaging peak voltages that occur within the motor’s windings and along the length of cables feeding the motor.
  • Type 1 enclosure for industrial environments
  • Extends motor life and reduces maintenance costs

How to Install the dV/dT Filter

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the installation and initial setup of the dV/dT filter, ensuring safe and effective operation.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors

  1. Inspect the unit

    Carefully inspect the dV/dT filter for any transit damage and ensure all parts are accounted for as per the shipping documents.

  2. Mount the filter

    Securely mount the dV/dT filter to a suitable surface using the provided mounting screws, ensuring it is level and stable.

  3. Connect the wiring

    Connect the output phases A1, B1, and C1 to the corresponding U, V, and W terminals of the variable frequency drive, and connect A2, B2, and C2 to T1, T2, and T3 of the motor.
