SineWave is the
first 2nd generation active harmonics conditioner. We have unique
experience in this field backed by a powerful, international development
programme and the experience gained from the 1st generation conditioners
launched in 1994. For installations from 10 to 2000 kVA, SineWave
gives you the tomorrow's performance - today!
Impressive harmonic attenuation
Using state-of-the-art technologies,
SineWave reduces harmonic currents by a factor of 10 which, depending
on the type of loads, can rise to a factor of 20. Compensation covers
2nd to 25th order harmonics allowing a wide regulation span to cover
every type of load. Additionally, you can choose between two operating
modes:
> Global compensation,
> Pre-selected order of compensation
Improvements to cosine phi
SineWave
also improves cosine phi and the power factor and saves on energy
costs.
Easy installation
Specific
architecture and carefully selected mechanical components make the
SineWave an industry reference for integration. These units are extremely
compact. For example, the 30 A unit only requires a space of 94 dm3.
This means you can install SineWave units on walls, in switchboards
and in panelboards.
SineWave units are compatible with every 3-phase power network and
automatically handle single and three phase loads, data processing
equipment, fluorescent lighting, variable speed drives, etc. To enhance
compensation at a given point in the installation they can be connected
in parallel. Up to four SineWave active conditioners can be installed
in parallel or mounted in series if your system changes.

Unrivalled operator-friendliness.
Located on the front panel of the SineWave unit the man/machine
interface (MMI) is written in seven standard languages (English,
French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and American). It
provides :
> Assistance with commissioning
and maintenance,
> Parameter control
(display language, harmonic compensation type),
> Operation (reports,
audits, alarms and controls).
The detachable Man/Machine Interface has a 3 metre lead to
enable, for example, installation on the front panel of the
SineWave unit housing. |

Additionally, dry contacts
and optional RS 485 serial connections are available for remote
control.
Exceptional operating reliability, safety
and security
SineWave units use
thoroughly tested circuit layouts and state-of-the-art technologies
such as fast IGBT transistors and DSP (Digital Signal Processing)
components. This design totally protects the unit from overloads.
If the demand for harmonic compensation exceeds its rated capacity,
conditioning continues up to the maximum limit. By
reducing effective current consumption, SineWave units eliminate risks
of power failures and cable heating. In this way they contribute to
improving operating safety and security.
All categories Savings Champion, The ideal
rating at the lowest price
SineWave units are extremely flexible and there is no need to buy
oversized unit. You can always add on to your SineWave solution to
cover future requirements. This means unbeatable economic solutions
for the extraordinary benefits they offer.
Extended equipment life
The reduction in effective current by SineWave units prolongs equipment
service life by up to 30%.
No expensive surprises
Once your current is cleaned up you are protected from surprises such
as malfunctions in critical applications and fines from utility operators
for not respecting standards. SineWave units contribute to service
continuity too.
Lower electricity bills
Reducing harmonics also reduces kVA
consumption. This means you can probably down-scale your utility contract.
By improving the cosine phi, you also reduce absorbed kVA and avoid
penalties from power suppliers due to excessively low cosine phi factors.
Return on investment is rapid and in some cases pay-back can be within
two years.
