Overview

The Hammond Power WAHF1K050A-T6H Active Harmonic Filter is a 480VAC, 50A, 60Hz unit designed to mitigate harmonic distortion in industrial power systems. This MDB/TCP Type 1 filter actively compensates for waveform distortions caused by non-linear loads such as variable frequency drives (VFDs), LED lighting, and switching power supplies. It operates on 400V systems, providing versatile compatibility across multiple voltage configurations. The filter injects compensating currents to correct power quality issues, reducing equipment stress, minimizing energy losses, and preventing overheating in transformers and conductors. With a current rating of 50A, it is suitable for medium-duty industrial applications requiring clean power delivery. The WAHF1K050A-T6H is part of Hammond Power's WAHF1K series, specifically engineered for indoor environments where power quality is critical. By addressing harmonic distortion at the source, this filter helps maintain system reliability and extends the lifespan of connected equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the HPS TruWave Active Harmonic Filter?

The AHF is designed to reduce total demand distortion (TDD) and total harmonic distortion (THD(V)) to levels less than 5%, correct linear displacement, and balance incoming three-phase current.

What are the ambient operating temperature and humidity limits for the AHF?

The AHF can operate in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 40°C and humidity levels from 0 to 95% non-condensing.

What is the storage temperature range for the AHF?

The AHF should be stored in a well-ventilated area protected from weather, moisture, and extreme temperatures, with a storage temperature range of -20°C to 60°C.

What input voltage options are available for the AHF?

The AHF is designed to operate from an input voltage of 480, 240, or 208 VAC, 3-phase, 3-wire plus ground, with a tolerance of +12%, -15%.

What is the operating frequency range for the AHF?

The AHF operates with a voltage frequency of 50 or 60 Hz, with a tolerance of ±5 Hz.

What is the efficiency of the AHF at full load?

The AHF efficiency is no less than 98% at full load, with heat losses not exceeding 2% of the unit's KVAR rating.

How does the AHF handle overload conditions?

The AHF uses electronic current limiting to limit its output to 100% RMS of the system current rating and can operate continuously at this limit.

Can multiple AHF units be used together?

Yes, additional units can be paralleled if the harmonic correction needed exceeds the maximum current rating of a single AHF, with up to six systems able to be paralleled.

What type of enclosure is the AHF provided in?

The AHF is provided in a NEMA Type 1 gasketed enclosure with air intake filters. Systems rated 50-200 amps are wall-mountable, while 300 amp systems are floor-mountable.

What features are available on the AHF's front panel interface?

The AHF has a 6-inch color LCD touch screen for viewing power quality information, system status, operating parameters, and historical data, as well as for performing system functions like Run, Stop, and Set Parameters.
