Protection class (IP): IP00

This network choke is an option for variable speed drives in the Altivar series. Its rated current is 60 A. It provides improved protection against overvoltages on the power supply and helps reduce the harmonic distortion of the current generated by the inverter. The protection class is IP00. It has an inductance value of 0.5 mH. The weight is 11 kg, and the dimensions are: 180 mm wide, 210 mm high, and 165 mm deep. Its use is particularly recommended for closely parallel connections of multiple inverters, in power supplies with significant disturbances from other devices, and in power supplies with voltage imbalance between phases.
