TCI Reactors/Chokes

Also known as inductors, chokes & line filters, TCI reactors are used on both the input (line) side and the output (load) side of a VSD.

Also known as inductors, chokes & line filters, TCI reactors are used on both the input (line) side and the output (load) side of a VSD. Reactors provide a cost-effective solution to reducing harmonic distortion and are available in 3% impedance and 5% impedance options. xx

 

Reactors provide the following benefits:

  • Extend the motor life on the output of VSD’s
  • Dampen Overshoot Peak Voltage
  • Reduce Motor Heating
  • Reduce Audible Noise


KDR Reactirs by TCI

Variable frequency (speed) drives are beneficial to a wide range of applications, but contain a power

conversion process that creates current and voltage distortion which can cause system-wide

problems, including: xxxx

  • Transformer and distribution equipment overheating
  • Random breaker tripping
  • Sensitive equipment may fail completely
  • Poor power factor
  • Reduced system efficiency


The addition of a KDR Reactor will reduce harmonic content, which reduces the total RMS

current, thereby improving the total power factor.

  • Nuisance tripping is less common
  • Drive uptime is increased
  • Power factor is improved
