Waterproof Active Harmonic Filter Panel

Waterproof Active Harmonic Filter Panel

The Elcosine AHF is a high-performance Active Harmonic Compensation Filter built on advanced 3-level topology — engineered to eliminate harmonic pollution, improve power factor, and deliver superior power quality in demanding industrial and commercial networks. Versatile, modular, and easily scalable — delivers power factor correction, voltage variation control, flicker mitigation, and dynamic load balancing in a single panel solution.

Elcosine Energia-AHF Active Harmonic Compensation Filter

Elcosine Energia-AHF Active Harmonic Compensation Filter is a perfect and
comprehensive solution to the power quality issues of power grid , such as harmonics, reactive power and 3 phase
load unbalance. Elcosine Energia-AHF which is in parallel to power grid can detect the harmonic
wave in power grid in time, generate the reverse-phase compensation current through the converter and dynamically
filter the harmonic wave in power grid.

Elcosine Energia Active Harmonic Filter basics

The operation of Elcosine Energia-AHF is unaffected by multifarious load forms and power grid
structures. And it will not produce harmonic oscillation (resonance) along with the system, thus perfectly realizing
harmonic control under diverse loads. Elcosine Energia Active Harmonic Filter can fully accomplish
dynamic reactive compensation, control the capacitor switching and ultimately heighten the power factor of power grid.
Meanwhile, Elcosine Energia-AHF has the function of controlling the three-phase load current unbalance,
thus comprehensively handling various power quality matters in power grid.

Modular Design

Elcosine Energia Active Harmonic Compensation Filter has a advanced modular design. Usually Elcosine
Energia-AHF panel consists of one or several AHF modules and an optional touched LCD Human Machine
Interface. Each AHF module is an independent harmonic filtering system, and users can change the harmonic filtering
system rating by adding or removing AHF modules.

According to the mounting type, Elcosine Energia-AHF panel can use Rack
Modular AHF, Wall-mounted AHF and free landing AHF.

Elcosine Energia-AHF in Textile Industry

Elcosine Energia Active Harmonic Compensation Filter, reduced harmonic levels results in improved electrical network reliability and reduced operating costs. Nuisance tripping of protective devices and nuisance clearing of fuses due to harmonic heating effects is greatly reduced.

Overheating of motors, transformers, switch gear and cables is also reduced which increases their life expectancy and reduces maintenance costs. For new installations, over-sizing of distribution equipment to reduce harmonic susceptibility can be reconsidered.

The Background

With the development of social economy and science technology, many textile printing and dyeing enterprises in order to improve the product quality of transformation technology, large use of VFDs, DC equipment, including ventilation equipment (including frequency conversion fan and air conditioning), lighting equipment, production equipment (yarn, fine sand, grasp cotton, shaping machine, dyeing cylinder, etc.), produce a large number of 5th,7th order harmonic, cause harmonic, harmonic pollution, lead to power quality decline.
