What cooling method does the filter use?
The filter uses natural convection cooling and is available in open or Type 3R enclosures.
What is the warranty for this product?
The passive harmonic filter comes with a 3-year warranty and is cUL Listed (E61431).
What types of harmonics does this filter mitigate?
The filter is engineered to reduce 5th, 7th, 11th, 13th, and higher order harmonics in three-phase power systems, typically associated with VFDs and other non-linear loads.
What are the potential consequences of harmonic distortion?
Harmonic distortion can cause overheating of electrical equipment, loss of efficiency, nuisance tripping, premature equipment failure, and interference with communication systems.
How does this filter improve system efficiency?
By mitigating harmonics and correcting power factor, the filter lowers kW and kVA, typically reducing total harmonic distortion from 30-60% to 5% or less, and improving power factor to over 95%.
What industries benefit most from this harmonic filter?
Critical industries include chemical processing, data centers, HVAC systems, material handling, mining, oil & gas, pulp & paper, hospitals, wastewater treatment plants, and EV charging.
How to Install the HPS Centurion P Passive Harmonic Filter
