2.8 Sine wave filters
TheDX-SIN3… sine wave filter removes high-frequency components from
the variable frequency drive’s output voltage (U
2
). This reduces the
conducted and radiated emission. The output voltage of the sine wave filter
reaches a sinusoidal shape with a lower overlapped output ripple.
The distortion factor of the sine wave voltage is typically 5 % to 10 %.
This reduces the noise generation and losses in the motor.

The DX-SIN3… sine wave filters are not permitted to be
operated with a lower frequency than the switching frequency
stated on the sine wave filter .
For this, the P6-02 parameter (“auto-temperature-manage-
ment”) needs to be set to the double value of the switching
frequency set on the sine wave filter.

For the DA1 variable frequency drive, the set value with the
double-modulation procedure is the double value of the
effective value in the sine wave filter (1
