Overview

The TCI V1K18A01 dV/dT output filter (SKU V1K18A01) is a Type 1-rated device designed for 3-phase industrial motor control systems operating between 208V and 600V AC. Rated for 18A continuous current, this filter mitigates voltage transients and harmonic distortion generated by Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) and other motor control equipment. By suppressing electrical disturbances, it protects motor windings and downstream components from premature failure, extending equipment lifespan and reducing maintenance costs. Measuring 9.00" H x 5.50" W x 10.00" D and weighing 15 lbs, the V1K18A01 is optimized for compact installations while delivering 110W of power loss. It supports motor ratings up to 10 HP at 480V and 15 HP at 600V per NEC standards, making it suitable for medium-duty industrial applications. The filter’s Type 1 enclosure provides basic protection against solid foreign objects, ensuring reliable operation in typical industrial environments. Common applications include conveyor systems, pumps, fans, and other 3-phase motor-driven equipment where VFD-induced voltage spikes pose a risk to system reliability. The V1K18A01 integrates seamlessly into existing motor control panels without requiring additional enclosure modifications.
