Hammond Power Solutions: Active Harmonic Filter – HPS TruWave

February 23, 2022

HPS TruWave active harmonic filter (AHF) (Powered by Mesta Electronics) is a comprehensive and flexible solution for harmonic mitigation. It provides the advanced control and proven reliability that your facility needs to solve power quality issues.

It monitors the load current and very quickly responds to the power system distortion as it develops. A corrective current is injected to effectively cancel out the harmonics required from the upstream power source. The result is a harmonic load on the power system that is acceptable, with more balanced current and voltage waveforms.

HPS TruWave operates at one of the highest efficiencies for any AHF, ensuring that losses are minimized. It is a critical addition to any plant or facility requiring IEEE-519 compliance.

Now featuring Waveform Display:

The LCD touch screen allows the operator to view a single AC line period of multiple voltage and current parameters of the active harmonic filter (AHF). This is an oscilloscope function that provides useful diagnostic information about the status of the system without needing to connect to an oscilloscope.

There are 21 available parameters for viewing. Both single capture and continuous capture are available. This allows the operator to track load changes and see exactly what correction the AHF is providing.

ADVANCED Motion Controls Takes Servo Drives to New Heights (and Depths) with FlexPro Extended Environment Product Line

Advanced Motion Controls is proud to announce the addition of six new CANopen servo drives with Extended Environment capabilities to their FlexPro line. These new drives join AMC’s existing EtherCAT Extended Environment FlexPro drives, making the FlexPro line the go-to solution for motion control applications in harsh environments.

Many motion control applications take place in conditions that are less than ideal, such as extreme temperatures, high and low pressures, shocks and vibrations, and contamination. Electronics, including servo drives, can malfunction or sustain permanent damage in these conditions.
