HF040-503

HF040-503 is a 3‑phase sine‑wave output filter from SEW‑EURODRIVE’s HF series. It converts the PWM output voltage of SEW inverters into a near‑sinusoidal waveform, reducing dv/dt, voltage spikes, bearing currents, and EMI, while enabling long motor cables and protecting motor insulation.

Description

1. General Description

HF040-503 is a 3‑phase sine‑wave output filter from SEW‑EURODRIVE’s HF series. It converts the PWM output voltage of SEW inverters into a near‑sinusoidal waveform, reducing dv/dt, voltage spikes, bearing currents, and EMI, while enabling long motor cables and protecting motor insulation.

4. Key Features

  1. Sine‑Wave Smoothing: Eliminates PWM voltage spikes, extends motor insulation life。

  2. Long Cable Operation: Supports motor cable lengths up to 100 m

  3. EMI Compliance: Meets EN 61800‑3 Class C1/C2 with unshielded cables。

  4. Zero Leakage Current: No earth‑leakage current, safe for sensitive systems。

  5. Group Drive Capability: Suppresses bearing currents in parallel motor connections。

5. Compatibility

  • ✅ Suitable for MOVITRAC 31C and MC07B series inverters.

  • ✅ Matches 4.0 kW motor power class (@ 400 V).

  • ❌ Not compatible with MOVIDRIVE B or servo applications.

  • ❌ Use only in V/f or VFC modes; do not use in hoist applications.

6. Operational Notes

  • Derate current 6% per 10 Hz above 60 Hz.

  • Consider voltage drop across the filter during planning (reduces motor torque).

  • For EMC compliance, follow SEW’s EMC‑compliant installation guidelines.

7. Status

  • Active (standard product), available new/used/refurbished from distributors.
