Chapter 1 Important Safety Instruction Chapter 1 : Important Safety Instructions 1.1. Safety Precautions The active power filter (‘APF’) shall be connected with a power grid system and in parallel with harmonic sources (i.e. nonlinear loads) as a means to control harmonics. The APF shall not be exposed to rain or wet conditions, and shall be away from any flam- mable fluid, gas or explosives.

Chapter 3 Installation and Wiring ( Figure 3-1: Air Inlet & Outlet Schematic Diagrams of the APF ) 9. The APF has a minimum vent flow requirement, which shall be met to guarantee the normal cooling of the device. For the APF mounted in a cabinet, please ensure the cabinet has sufficient vent flow to cool the device.
Chapter 3 Installation and Wiring Installation of the LCM When installation, please use the provided fastening screws (packed in the LCM package) to install the LCM into the mounting holes of the customer provided panel. After installation, use the provided LCM connection wire (packed in the LCM package) to connect the LCM’s DATABUS port and the wall-mounted module’s communication terminals.
4. The nominal secondary capacity (rated load) of the CT shall meet the requirement of secondary impedance (≥5VA when the secondary current is 5A). The capacity and the maximum one-way wiring length from the CT to the wall-mounted module shall be calculated according to the following formula: PQC Series Active Power Filter...
