Line Reactor is a current limiting device installed on the input side of the AC inverter to prevent transient overvoltage. It can effectively reduce surge current and peak current, improve active power factor, suppress grid harmonics, improve input current waveform, and optimize performance.
In industrial environments where voltage fluctuations and electrical noise are common, Line Reactor is a critical safeguard for AC drive systems. It stabilizes the input power and prevents transient overvoltage events from damaging sensitive components. It works by introducing impedance into the circuit, smoothing out sudden current spikes caused by load changes or grid disturbances, which can extend the life of connected equipment and ensure continuous operation in environments with unstable power supplies.
Line Reactor effectively suppresses harmonic distortion, a major benefit of modern power infrastructure. Harmonics generated by frequency converters can degrade grid quality, causing overheating and inefficiencies. By filtering out high-frequency noise, Line Reactor minimizes interference with other equipment on the same network, enabling cleaner energy consumption, compliance with strict electromagnetic compatibility industry standards, and reduced risk of penalties or operational disruptions.
High-quality cores and precision windings provide excellent thermal and electrical performance. Rugged construction enables it to withstand harsh environments such as high temperatures and mechanical stress. The design prioritizes energy efficiency, ensuring minimum voltage drop and maximizing power factor correction. The balance between durability and efficiency makes Line Reactor a cost-effective solution for both short-term protection and long-term energy savings.
Line Reactor can improve system reliability and reduce maintenance costs. In frequently cycled applications such as conveying systems or pumps, it prevents premature wear of capacitors and semiconductor devices by suppressing inrush current when the motor starts. Over time, reduced electrical stress means fewer unplanned downtimes and lower replacement costs, supporting uninterrupted productivity.
Capable of being integrated into new installations or retrofitted into existing systems, Line Reactor can be adapted to a variety of operational needs, enabling companies to achieve safer, more efficient and more sustainable operations by addressing both immediate conservation needs and broader energy quality challenges.
