The textile sector, a linchpin of global manufacturing, has embraced automation and energy-efficient technologies to stay competitive. Yet, the proliferation of Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), DC-powered machinery, and smart equipment has unleashed an invisible enemy: harmonic pollution. These distortions degrade power quality, disrupt production, and inflate costs—posing a criti...
Active Harmonic Filters vs. Line Reactors: A Comprehensive Technical Comparison Understanding Harmonic Mitigation Harmonic distortion in electrical systems, caused by non-linear loads like variable frequency drives (VFDs) and switch-mode power supplies, degrades power quality, increases losses, and risks equipment damage. Two primary solutions exist: Active Harmonic Filters (AHFs) and Line Reactor...
From Shanghai’s skyscrapers to Africa’s solar farms, the YTPQC-SVG Static Var Generator is redefining power quality standards across continents. Its secret lies in a blend of rugged hardware and intelligent software, designed to thrive in the harshest environments while delivering lab-grade precision. At the core of the SVG is its TI DSP and FPGA-powered analytics...
The Problem: Variable Speed Drives Generate Harmonics What is a Variable Speed Drive (VSD/VFD)?A Variable Speed Drive (VSD), also commonly called a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD), is an electronic device that controls the speed and torque of an AC electric motor by varying the motor's input frequency and voltage. How Do They Cause Harmonics?The internal design of a ...
1. Why Do SVGs Generate Harmonics? Unlike ideal components, the real-world power electronic switches (IGBTs) in an SVG do not switch sinusoidally. They use Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to synthesize a sinusoidal output current. This switching action is the primary source of harmonics. PWM Switching Frequency Harmonics: The output voltage of the SVG's H-Bridge inverters is a series of high-fre...
IN any system containing nonlinear loads that use phase-angle control or abrupt switching, particularly those that draw a non-sinusoidal current. The specific range of "2nd to 51st" is a classic signature of certain technologies.Here are the most common places where you would find such a wide harmonic spectrum: 1. The Classic Example: Thyristor-Controlled Reactor (TCR) in SVC Plants This is the mo...
How a Copper Manufacturing Plant Solved Severe Harmonic Issues with SVG + APF Technology Real-world case study: Improving power quality, restoring capacitor operation, and eliminating production disruptions at Zhejiang Jinjia Special-Shaped Copper Co., Ltd. The Challenge: High Harmonics, Failed Capacitors, and Unstable Production Zhejiang Jinjia Special-Shaped Copper Co., Ltd., located in Changxin...
Power Problems? Two Tools That Fix Them for Good Does your facility have any of these issues?---- Energy bills that are too high. Machines that run hotter than they should. Production lines that stop unexpectedly. Often, the problem isn't your equipment. The problem is the quality of the electricity that powers them. It's like giving an athlete dirty water to drink—performance w...
