10.17.4 Harmonic Compliance
Danfoss drives comply with the following standards:
•
IEC61000-2-4
•
IEC61000-3-4
•
G5/4
10.17.5 Harmonic Mitigation
In cases where extra harmonic suppression is required, Danfoss oers the following mitigation equipment:
•
VLT
®
12-pulse drives
•
VLT
®
Low harmonic drives
•
VLT
®
Advanced harmonic lters
•
VLT
®
Advanced active lters
Selecting the right solution depends on several factors:
•
The grid (background distortion, mains unbalance, resonance, and type of supply (transformer/generator).
•
Application (load prole, number of loads, and load size).
•
Local/national requirements/regulations (such as IEEE 519, IEC, and G5/4).
•
Total cost of ownership (initial cost, eciency, and maintenance).
10.17.6 Harmonic Calculation
Use the free Danfoss MCT 31 calculation software to determine the degree of voltage pollution on the grid and needed
precaution. The VLT
