Danfoss VLT High Power Drives

Danfoss VLT® Low Harmonic Drives

The VLT Low Harmonic Drive is a complete VLT frequency drive built on the power and control platform of the new generation VLT drives. The difference is that the VLT Low Harmonic Drive eliminates the ...

Meeting the toughest harmonics recommendations and standards

Where the performance of other low harmonic technologies depends on stability and load or effect the controlled motor, the new Danfoss VLT Low Harmonic Drive continuously regulates the network and load conditions without affecting the connected motor.

The VLT Low Harmonic Drive causes no increased winding stress or reduction of the bearing lifetime.

VLT Low Harmonic Drive is motor
friendly, with output impulse & shaft
voltages compatible with motors
conforming to IEC 60034-17/25 &
NEMA-MG1-1998 part 31.4.4.2), as per standard VLT drives.

The VLT Low Harmonic Drive meets
the toughest harmonic recommendations and gives the user full readout of the unit performance towards the grid, including graphical overview of grid behavior.

The perfect solution for

  • Meeting the toughest harmonics
    recommendations and standards
     
  • Generator-powered installations
     
  • Installations with generator backup
