With the sinusoidal waveforms the use of special frequency converter motors with reinforced insulation is no longer needed. The acoustic noise from the

motor is also damped as a consequence of the wave condition.

Besides the features of the du/dt filter, the sine-wave filter also reduces insulation stress and bearing currents in the motor thus leading to prolonged

motor lifetime and longer periods between services. Sine-wave filters enable use of longer motor cables in applications where the motor is installed far

from the drive. The length is unfortunately limited because the filter does not reduce leakage currents in the cables.
