EnerWAVE Filters EnerWAVE Input IEEE519 and Output Sinewave Filters EnerWAVE High Horse Power 1800A Sinewave Filter SUBCOE manufactures filtered 12 Pulse Skid Systems with specially tuned reactors and harmonic filter systems for the global markets and our advanced filtering solutions are available for all voltages and frequencies. They may also be tailored to address specific harmonic resonance issues that may be present on distribution systems. The two main products are the EnerWAVE Sinewave Filter for VFD power conditioning and the EnerWAVE IEEE519 compliant power conditioners. EnerWAVE Input IEEE519 Filters As power utilities continue to be pushed to the limits of supply capability, rising energy costs and decreasing power quality will continue to be an issue for consumers. Users continually search for ways to not only reduce energy costs, but also ensure their processes will continue to operate no matter the quality of the incoming power. EnerWAVE Input IEE519 Stand Alone / Retrofit Filter The EnerWAVE Input Filter is a L+L-C passive filter that is connected in series with the input terminals of a variable speed drive or several drives that operate as a group that designed to reduce the harmonic currents drawn from the power source by variable speed drives. It is suitable for use with 3-phase diode bridge rectifier loads such as PWM and Six Step AC drives. EnerDRIVE with Integrated IEEE519 and SWF SUBCOE harmonic filters are designed to provide a low impedance path for the major harmonic currents demanded by the drive. SUBCOE EWL filters can be stand-alone devices in their own enclosure with completely indepenent control & protection so they can be mounted adjacent to the drive. Alternatively when ordered with the VFD then the filter package may be integrated into the drive systems to offer a full single enclosure low harmonic solution. For retrofit applications, we also provide components on open panels ready to be mounted within an existing enclosure with the drive or other equipment. EnerWAVE Output Sinewave Filter SUBCOE Filters work with all VFD types and use state of the art components to block the high frequency harmonics generated on the input and output of the VFD from travelling beyond the VFD output. With the harmonics removed, the VFD output resembles a true sinewave resulting in longer motor runlife and lower stress on the complete cabling system. In the continuing search to improve energy efficiency, many commercial and industrial power systems are turning to the technology of PWM (pulse width modulated) output power supplies. The ability to convert standard utility power into variable-frequency, variable-voltage electrical power has led to more efficient and economical installations. One of the drawbacks of the use of equipment such as adjustable frequency drives and variable frequency/voltage power supplies is that the output of such PWM devices is a square wave form. EnerWAVE Input & Output Filters Integrated into VFD Many applications require a more sinusoidal output, thus ruling out these economical and efficient solutions. The EnerWAVE EWS Filter has been designed to be installed at the output terminals of PWM devices either in the VFD enclosure or as a stand alone enclosure. The EnerWAVE sinewave filter is a passive L-C-R filter that converts the PWM wave form to a near sinusoidal wave form, allowing sensitive applications to take advantage of the efficiencies and savings that PWM output power supplies offer.
