Sinusoidal filter

4.13 Sinusoidal filter
Description
The sinusoidal filter limits the rate of rise of voltage and the capacitive charge/
discharge currents which usually occur with inverter operation. It also prevents
additional noise caused by the pulse frequency. The service life of the motor is
the same as that with direct line operation.
Caution
If a sinusoidal filter is connected to the converter, the converter must be activated
during commissioning to prevent the filter from being destroyed.
Usage Restrictions for Sinusoidal Filters
The following restrictions must be taken into account when a sinusoidal filter is
used:
S The output frequency is limited to 150 Hz.
S The modulation type is permanently set to space vector modulation without
overmodulation. This reduces the maximum output voltage to approx. 90% of
the rated output voltage.
S Maximum permissible motor cable lengths:
-- Unshielded cables: max. 150 m
-- Shielded cables: max. 100 m
S Other restrictions: Refer to the Equipment Manual
Note
If a filter cannot be parameterized (p0230 not set to 3), this means that a filter has
not been provided for the cabinet unit. In this case, the cabinet unit must not be
operated with a sinusoidal filter.
