Output reactor for PM230 Power Modules frame size FSA and PM240?2 Power Modules frame size FSA

Output reactor for PM240 Power Modules, frame size FSGX

Output reactors reduce the rate of voltage rise (dv/dt) and the height of the current peaks, and enable longer motor cables to be connected.

Owing to the high rates of voltage rise of the fast-switching IGBTs, the capacitance of long motor cables reverses polarity very quickly with every switching operation in the inverter. As a result, the inverter is loaded with additional current peaks of substantial magnitude.

Output reactors reduce the magnitude of these additional peaks because the cable capacitance reverses polarity more slowly across the reactor inductance, thereby attenuating the amplitudes of the current peaks.

When using output reactors, the following should be observed:

• Max. permissible output frequency 150 Hz (PM240) or 200 Hz (PM230 and PM240?2)
• Max. permissible pulse frequency 4 kHz
• The output reactor must be installed as close as possible to the Power Module
