VLT® Low Harmonic Drive

The first solution to combine an active filter and a drive in one package

The VLT® LHD continuously regulates harmonic suppression according to the load and grid conditions without affecting the connected motor. The total harmonic current distortion is reduced to less then 3% on grids with balanced mains, a minimum pre-distortion to less than 5% on grids with high harmonic distortion and 2% phase unbalance. The VLT® Low Harmonic Drive meets all present harmonic standards and recommendations.

Features and benefits

Unique features such as sleep mode and back channel cooling offers unmatched energy efficiency for Low Harmonic Drives 

The VLT® Low harmonic drive requires the same set-up and installation as a standard VLT® drive and out of the box it ensures optimum harmonic performance

The VLT® Low harmonic drive has the same modular build-up as our standard high power drives and shares similar features: Built-in RFI filters, coated PCB and user-friendly programming
