AFQ-4W

Instruction Manual 17

Never power or start up the active filter with the front door open or

the side or rear covers removed.

Check that there is a neutral in the place where three-phase active filter

connections are made with neutral, AFQ-4W.

The active filter must be of the correct size for the harmonic currents it has to

filter and for the installation's electrical features.

Check the section

3.4.- SIZING THE NOMINAL CURRENT OF THE

AFQ-4W

to define the correct unit size. Failing to observe the

recommendations described in this section might cause the active

filter to work incorrectly and prevent proper compensation of the

installation's current harmonics.

Connect a reactor of at least 3% of the impedance on the input of

each of the loads.

3.2.- INSTALLATION LOCATION

The unit must be installed in an environment where the temperature outside the

cabinet is between 0ºC and 40ºC, with a maximum humidity of 90% without

condensation.

Do not install the unit close to a hot spot and keep it out of direct sunlight.

Ventilation spaces must be left on the side and rear to allow for the use of fans.

There must also be sufficient space at the front of the cabinet to be able to open

the door if necessary (

Figure 12

):

200 mm on the sides of the cabinet.

200 mm between the top of the cabinet and the ceiling.

800 mm at the front of the cabinet.
