Frequently Asked Questions

What voltage ratings are available for this sinewave filter?

The KMG MotorGuard sinewave filter is available in 480V and 600V ratings, with VFD output voltages of 460/480V and 575/600V, 3-phase.

What current ratings does the filter support?

The filter supports continuous current ratings from 8 to 750 amps, with the ability to handle 150% intermittent current for 1 minute per 60 minutes.

What is the maximum output waveform voltage and dV/dt?

For 480V systems, the maximum peak voltage is 815V with a dV/dt of 5 V/μs. For 600V systems, the maximum peak voltage is 1,018V with a dV/dt of 6 V/μs.

What are the operating temperature and elevation limits?

The filter can operate at temperatures up to 40°C (104°F) without derating and at elevations up to 2,000 m (6,600 ft.) without derating.

What protection does the filter provide for motors?

The filter eliminates voltage wave reflection and torque ripple, reduces motor noise, vibration, and heat, and helps increase motor life by converting PWM waveforms to near-sinusoidal waveforms.

What types of motors can this filter be used with?

The MotorGuard Sinewave Filter has universal acceptance and can be used with virtually all AC induction motors, supporting carrier frequencies from 2 kHz to 16 kHz.

What are typical applications for this sinewave filter?

Typical applications include conveyors, blowers, pumps, fans, HVAC systems, test floors, shore-to-ship power systems, and applications requiring low voltage PWM to medium voltage power conversion.

What protection features does the filter include?

The filter has internal fusing protection and a performance monitoring circuit. It uses oil-filled high endurance capacitors with no PCBs.
