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 are the operating voltage and frequency ranges for the AHF?

The AHF operates from 480, 240, or 208 VAC (±12%, -15%), 3-phase, 3-wire plus ground, with a voltage frequency of 50 or 60 Hz (±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 installations exceeding its maximum current rating?

Additional units can be paralleled to achieve the required harmonic correction if the needed correction exceeds the maximum current rating of a single AHF, with up to six systems connectable in parallel.

What is the ambient operating temperature range for the AHF?

The AHF is designed for ambient operation temperatures between 0° C and 40° C.

What are the humidity and altitude limitations for AHF operation?

The AHF can operate in humidity levels from 0 to 95% (non-condensing) and up to an altitude of 1000 M (de-rated at higher altitudes).

How does the AHF monitor incoming line current?

The AHF uses two split core type current transformers on phases A and B to monitor line current. A third CT is used on phase C if line-to-neutral loads are present.

Can the AHF be controlled remotely?

Yes, the AHF has an Ethernet communications interface for remote configuration, diagnostics, data collection, and enabling/disabling the system. It also features a remote enable/disable dry contact input.

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

The LCD touch screen displays power quality information (voltage, current, THD, harmonics, KW, KVA, PF), operating status, diagnostic messages, and historical data like shutdown and reset records.

What type of enclosure is the AHF provided in?

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