NEMA MG1 – Definite purpose Inverter Fed Motors. If, in your application, the resulting U and t exceed the peak limits that apply for the motor used, an output filter should be used for protecting the motor insulation. ® MG.90.N5.02 - VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark...
In order to eliminate this additional switching noise, a sine-wave filter should be used. This will filter the pulse shaped voltage from the frequency converter and provide a sinusoidal phase-to-phase voltage at the motor terminals. ® MG.90.N5.02 - VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark...
(sensors, communication, etc.). This can be achieved by cable segregation and placement of the motor cable in a separate, continuous and grounded cable tray. ® MG.90.N5.02 - VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark...
Make sure that the motor is properly grounded and the grounding has a low-impedance for high- frequency currents. • Provide a good high-frequency ground connection between motor chassis and load. • Use shaft grounding brushes. ® MG.90.N5.02 - VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark...

The inductance (L) and capacitance (C) values are shown in Application areas the tables in 4.2 Electrical Data - dU/dt Filters. Compared to Danfoss recommends the use of dU/dt filters in the following Sine-wave filters they have lower L and C values, thus they applications: are cheaper and smaller.

(generative) U peak can increase to values above the limits of IEC 60034-17 and thereby stress the motor insulation. Danfoss therefore Illustration 3.9 Without Filter recommends dU/dt filters in applications with frequent braking. Furthermore the illustration above shows how the increases with the cable length.
Therefore the motor cable length is limited - see Table 3.2. The Danfoss Sine-wave filters are designed to operate with ® the VLT FC 100/200/300. They replace the LC-filter product range and are backwards compatible with the VLT 5000-8000 Series Drives.

It is also important not to put the PE or any grounding wires through the core, else the core will loose its effect. In most applications several cores have to be stacked. ® MG.90.N5.02 - VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark...
It is recommended to use screened cables to reduce the NOTE radiation of electromagnetic noise into the environment and More than 10m is possible but Danfoss strongly discourge prevent malfunctions in the installation. such installations, due to the risk of increased EMI and voltage spikes on the filter terminals.
