What is the operating temperature range for the AHF?
The AHF operates in ambient temperatures between 0°C and 40°C.
What is the humidity range for AHF operation?
The AHF can operate in humidity levels from 0 to 95%, non-condensing.
What is the maximum altitude for AHF operation?
The AHF can operate up to 1000 meters, with de-rating required at higher altitudes.
What input voltages can the AHF operate with?
The AHF can operate with input voltages of 480, 240, or 208 VAC, 3-phase, 3-wire plus ground.
What is the voltage frequency range for the AHF?
The AHF is designed to operate with a voltage frequency of 50 or 60 Hz, with a tolerance of ±5 Hz.
What is the efficiency of the AHF?
The AHF efficiency is no less than 98% at full load, with heat losses not exceeding 2% of the unit KVAR rating.
How is overload protection provided for the AHF?
Fuses provide redundant overload protection, rated Class T at 200,000 AIC. The output is also electronically current limited to 100% rms.
