TCI KLR series three phase AC reactors are intended for use as input filters for adjustable speed DC drives and as input or output filters for AC-PWM variable frequency drives. Drive performance is significantly improved, the drives input rectifier is protected from failure or damage, and drive harmonic demands are tamed with the addition of a K-rated reactor. KLR reactors act as interface buffers between solid state power circuits and the line or the motor. All drives, in any application, will benefit when applied with KLR series reactors.

• 1.5%, 3% and 5% Impedance
• 50/60 Hertz
• Natural Convection Cooling

HPS Reactors are designed to address line-side issues associated with variable frequency drives. They mitigate voltage and current transients that can cause nuisance tripping of a drive. Reactors also minimize harmonic current levels within the drive supply circuit. When used on the output side of IGBT-based, PWM-type AC drives, HPS reactors reduce the motor operating temperature and audible noise by moderating line transients seen by the motor. Using HPS line reactors enhances the overall performance, life expectancy, and efficiency of the motor.
