Please note that the matching of the typical Danfoss adjustable frequency drive and filter is pre-calculated
based on 500V and assuming typical motor load. VLT 5000 series is based on a 160 % torque application,
while the VLT 8000 series are based on 110% torque application.
The pre-calculated filter current may vary from the input current ratings of VLT 5000 and VLT 8000 series as
stated in the respective instruction manuals, as these numbers are based on different operating conditions.

Calculation of the exact filter size needed
For optimal performance, the harmonic filter should
be sized for the line input current to the adjustable
frequency drive, i.e. the input current drawn based on
the expected load of the adjustable frequency drive
and not the size of the adjustable frequency drive itself!
The line input current to the adjustable frequency
drive (I
FC,L
) can by calculated using the nominal motor
current (I
M,N
) and displacement power factor (Cos
φ
)) of the motor. Both data are normally printed
on the nameplate of the motor. In the case where
the nominal motor voltage (U
M,N
) is unequal to the
actual line-line voltage (U
L
), the calculated current
must be corrected with the ratio between these
voltages as shown in the equation below.
The harmonic filter chosen must have a nominal current
(I
AHF,N
) equal to or larger than the calculated adjustable
frequency drive line input current (I
FC,L
).
If several adjustable frequency drives are to
be connected to the same filter, the harmonic
filter must be sized according to the sum of
the calculated line currents.
If the harmonic filter is sized for the load, and
the motor of the corresponding adjustable
frequency drive is changed, the current must
be re-calculated to avoid overload of the harmonic filter.
