Overview

The TCI KDRF1PC3 is a robust 3-phase output line inductor designed for AC-PWM variable frequency drives. Rated for 480V, 80A, and 50HP, this NEMA 1 enclosed unit effectively dampens overshoot peak voltage, reduces motor heating, and lowers audible motor noise, thereby extending motor lifespan. It is UL recognized and RoHS compliant, ensuring adherence to safety and environmental standards. Optimized for motor lead lengths under 100 feet, the KDRF1PC3 operates with less than 5% Total Harmonic Distortion of Inductance (THID) at full load, contributing to efficient system performance. This inductor is a key component in industrial motor control, power distribution, and automation systems where reliable harmonic mitigation and voltage regulation are critical. Its construction ensures durability and consistent performance in demanding industrial settings. The KDR series, including the KDRF1PC3, is engineered by TCI for superior output filtering and motor protection.
  • Dampens overshoot peak voltage for motor protection
