ECOsine passive harmonic filters
Schaffner ECOsine™ passive harmonic filters represent an economical solution to the challenge of load-applied harmonics mitigation in three-phase power systems. With a plug-and-play approach and more compact dimensions than comparable products, they can be quickly installed and easily commissioned. They increase the reliability and service life of electric installations, help utilize electric system capacity better and are the key to meet Power Quality requirements such as IEEE 519, EN61000-3-12 or D.A.CH.CZ.
