Overview

The Hammond Power WAHF1K050F-I is an open-style Active Harmonic Filter designed for industrial applications requiring power quality improvement. This unit operates at 480V and has a 50A rating, with a standard operating frequency of 60Hz. It features Ethernet/IP (ETH/IP) communication, enabling seamless integration into modern industrial control systems and providing valuable data for monitoring and diagnostics. Active Harmonic Filters are crucial for mitigating harmonic distortion caused by non-linear loads, such as variable frequency drives (VFDs), LED lighting, and switching power supplies. By actively injecting compensating currents, the WAHF1K050F-I effectively reduces total harmonic distortion (THD) in the electrical system. This leads to improved power factor, reduced energy losses, extended equipment lifespan, and prevention of nuisance tripping of circuit breakers and sensitive electronic equipment. The open-style design allows for flexible integration into existing control panels or custom enclosures, offering a compact and efficient solution for power quality challenges. This filter is an essential component for facilities aiming to comply with power quality standards and optimize electrical system performance. Manufacturer: Hammond Power. SKU: WAHF1K050F-I.

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 less than 5%, correct linear displacement, and balance incoming three-phase current.

What information is available on the AHF's LCD touch screen display?

The display shows power quality information (voltage, current, THD, harmonics, power factor), operating status, system temperatures, currents, DC bus voltage, and allows parameter setting and historical data viewing.

What are the operating voltage and frequency ranges for the AHF?

The AHF operates from 480, 240, or 208 VAC (3-phase, 3-wire plus ground) with a tolerance of +12%, -15%. It supports 50 or 60 Hz, ±5 Hz.

How does the AHF record shutdown and reset events?

The AHF can record the last 1,856 reset events and 480 shutdown events, including date/time stamps and fault reasons, with battery backup memory.

Does the AHF support remote monitoring and control?

Yes, it has an Ethernet communications interface for configuration, diagnostics, data collection, and remote enable/disable. It also features three status relays and a remote enable/disable dry contact input.

What are the environmental operating conditions for the AHF?

The AHF operates in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 40°C and humidity from 0 to 95% (non-condensing). It can operate up to 1000 M altitude, with de-rating at higher altitudes.

Can multiple AHF units be installed in parallel?

Yes, multiple systems can be installed in parallel, up to six units, if the harmonic correction needed exceeds the maximum current rating of a single AHF.

What are the requirements for external current transformers (CTs)?

CTs must be split core type, rated for the total rated RMS current, have a 5-ampere output, and be rated for 400 Hz. The AHF has a function to verify correct CT installation.

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.

What type of enclosure is the AHF provided in?

AHFs rated for 50-200 amps are in NEMA Type 1 gasketed, wall-mountable enclosures. 300-amp systems are in floor-mountable (freestanding) enclosures.
