8.3 Noise Emission of Drive System
Causes of Noise Emission
Controlled variable-speed drives contain converters containing snappy
semiconductors. The advantage of modifying the speed with high
precision is achieved by means of pulse width modulation of the converter
voltage. This can generate sinusoidal currents with variable amplitude and
frequency in the motor.
The steep voltage rise, the high clock rate and the resulting harmonics
cause unwanted but physically unavoidable emission of interference
voltage and interference fields (wide band interference). The interference
mainly is asymmetric interference against ground.
The propagation of this interference strongly depends on
• configuration
• conditions of mounting
• mounting site
• radiation conditions
• wiring and installation
• of the individual drive components in the machine or installation.
If the interference gets from the device to the connected lines in unfiltered
form, these lines can radiate the interference into the air (antenna effect).
This applies to power lines, too.
