The Industrial Benefits of Using Harmonic Filters

Image
Harmonic currents are produced primarily as a result of a heavy load on the power distribution network. Their frequencies are integer multiples of fundamental frequencies. Voltage and current harmonics are produced in a device by nonlinear loads. To address this issue, we need Harmonic Filters that regulate the harmonics produced by the power distribution network.     The Harmonic Distortion results in increased heating losses, which causes harmonic voltage and current distortion. They are a significant cause of infrastructure loss, disruption of power supplies, and, in serious cases, fire threats. But, how will the vibration effects of harmonics be reduced or eliminated? Benefits of Using Harmonic Filters To Reduce Harmonic Distortion They reduce harmonics in an electrical system and increase power transfer. These filters also have energy conservation, which aids in the asset's longevity. Deploying Harmonic Filter lowers the operating expenses as well. As compared to active...

Harmonic Distortion Origin & Problems

Image
Harmonics can be generated in your power source by any device that has non-linear operating characteristics. If you are using electrical appliances that can trigger harmonics or you have had issues with harmonics, a capacitor reactor or filter bank might be the solution.    Harmonic Generated Issues : The increased heating causes capacitors, capacitor fuses, transformers, generators, fluorescent lighting ballasts, and other electrical components to fail. Circuit breaker tripping or blown fuses are a danger. Harmonic noise causes control system elements to operate incorrectly. Electronic equipment that is responsive is damaged. Disruption of electronic communications. The industry’s growing requirement for accuracy, flexibility and adjustability of electrical equipments led to the invention of low-cost  diodes,  thyristors, SCRs, and other power semiconductors. These modern devices have largely replaced mercury arc rectifiers in rectifier circuits for UPS setups, stat...

Effects of Harmonics in Power System & what is Active Harmonic Filter?

Image
Effects of harmonics in power system: Considering the trend in electricity consumption and therefore the increasing sources of harmonics in industrial, commercial, and residential installations over consequent twenty five years, it shall be necessary to straightly assess the effects that unfiltered harmonics from scattered nodes in the power system will have in different equipment, on operation, and on diverse processes. Thermal Effects on Transformers: Modern industrial and business networks are more and more influenced by vital amounts of harmonic currents made by a spread of nonlinear loads. All of those currents are sourced through service transformers.     Unexpected Fuse Operation: The RMS voltage and current values could rise underneath Harmonic Analysis in power system. This can turn out unsought operation of fuses in capacitor banks or in lateral feeding industrial facilities that operate massive nonlinear loads. Capacitor banks will be stressed in the future below t...

Know Everything Important About Harmonic & Passive Harmonic Filter

Image
Harmonics are closely associated with power issue management - and another key side of uninterruptible power provided system style and implementation. A UPS will generally be fitted with a Harmonic Filter (post installation) however this will be a pricey and inelegant resolution as intensive internal wiring changes could also be needed.     Although several aspects of harmonics should be thought-about once specifying a UPS system, support are often gained from the very fact that this can be acquainted territory for UPS makers. End users and their skilled advisers will definitely be assured that this specialized side of UPS application is going to be totally addressed throughout the trendy consolatory sales and specification method. Passive Filters: Most of the mentioned filtering techniques have common disadvantages of higher price compared to Passive Filtering techniques. Consequently, the harmonic filtering techniques to an outsized extent are still the foremost ordinarily ...

Quality control engineers are nothing less than real genius

Image
With the advancement of civilisation and modernisation of all sectors, the engineers are improving their products to give us a better life. We are having plenty of electronics appliances, iPod, iPad, automated home theatres, automated cars, and uninterrupted electricity or communication systems. However, have we ever thought of who are working behind this and how? We are overwhelmed by their invention and products. If we look at the backstage, then we will find that what difficulties the engineers are facing and how the supporting staffs are paying their role to give us such wonders and obviously after sales service. A real brand maintains a strict quality control process where engineers find out ways how to maintain quality products only with little scarp. For example, if it is an electrical or electronic or consumer durable product, then the engineers put effort to reduce scrap is by harmonic analysis and ultimately providing harmonic solution . In other words, harmonic filter solut...

Passive Harmonic Filter

The installation of a passive harmonic filter eliminates both current and voltage harmonics. Read this informative piece on passive installation online at Enconengineers.in.      

Engineers have all solutions with their innovations.

With the technological development, the pollution is also increasing day by day. There are plenty of places or regulatory boards controlling pollution, but detectable decrease is not attained. With air pollution, sound pollution side by side goes the term harmonic pollution. The engineers dealing with power continuity instruments or in short UPS manufacturers are well aware of the problem. Obviously the harmonic analysis is done by the efficient engineers and the harmonic solutions are also obtained. If we say harmonic problems , in simple words, it would refer to the voltage fluctuations in the main supply , as a result the wires and the conductors  in the system gets heated and finally the tripping occurs and the power failures become regular phenomenon. As referred by some articles and experts a UPS can be attached with a harmonic filter , but the internal wiring needs to be changed in such cases which most of the times it become costly affair. But the organisations which can ...
