Background For the largest air-cooled Direct-to-Drive VFDs, the Common Mode
Chokes (CMCs) are relatively heavy (5000 lbs./2267 kg.+). In order to
ease handling of the VFD Enclosure, the CMCs are shipped separately
and the contractor and/or customer must reinstall the CMC into the
VFD Enclosure on site. The CMC is completely installed and tested at
the factory before shipment, then removed for shipment.
Definitions VFD Enclosure – the entire VFD metal cabinet assembly. This consists
of a number of cabinet sections, each with its own front access door.
Common Mode Choke (CMC) – the DC Link Inductor that is
electrically connected between VFD rectifier and inverter to provide the
DC source to the inverter and address Common Mode Voltage.
CMC Cabinet Section – Part of the overall VFD Enclosure. This
cabinet section houses the CMC. It is located at the far right of the
overall VFD enclosure (looking from the front).
