Ecosine evo product highlights
Schaffner ecosine evo passive harmonic filters are configurable products which provide a tailored solution to
each specific problem of current harmonics mitigation of 3-phase non-linear loads.
The eight product lines, FN 3440/FN 3441, FN 3450/FN 3451, FN 3442/FN 3443 and FN 3452/FN 3453 are
applicable for low voltage 50 Hz and 60 Hz systems and they are particularly suitable for AC and DC motor
drives, battery chargers and other power electronics applications with 6-pulse front-end rectifiers.
Ecosine evo passive harmonic filter technology represents an evolution of the previous generations of
passive harmonic filters and introduces following aspects of novelty:
|
Ecosine evo is designed for the most demanding harmonic mitigation tasks.
Ecosine evo filters
FN 3440, FN 3450, FN 3442 and FN 3452 are designed for three-phase diode and thyristor rectifier,
to achieve THID
≤
5% even without DC-link choke included in the drive. If there is 8% DC link choke
present in the drive, ecosine evo filters FN 3441, FN 3451, FN 3443 and FN 3453 help to achieve 5%
THID @ rated power. The new generation ecosine evo filters guarantee compliance with the toughest
requirement of IEEE-519 and other stringent international power quality standards.
|
Ecosine evo demonstrates superior partial load performance.
The excellent performance of
ecosine evo filters not only reflects on mitigating harmonic current and bringing the THID down to 5%
(diode rectifiers @ rated power), but also introducing minimum reactive power, even at partial or no
load condition. The displacement power factor remains at cosφ >0.98 @ 50% load.
|
The modular concept of ecosine evo offers optimal tailored solution.
Ecosine evo are
configurable filters, optional modules includes fan with aux. power supply, fan without aux. power
supply, trap disconnect jumper and RC damper modules. Optimal solutions can be achieved by
merely plugging a new module according to different installation conditions and drive setups.

Most compact design, robust, reliable and ready to use.

The upgraded version of the Schaffner power quality simulator SchaffnerPQS3 (
pqs.schaffner.com
)
provides the possibility to simulate ecosine evo passive harmonic filters within an electrical system. It
furthermore offers quick and accurate performance checks.
This user manual is intended to support designers, installers, and application engineers with filter selection,
installation, application, and maintenance. It provides helpful solutions to overcome harmonics mitigation
challenges and answers frequently asked questions.
