HITRAN's standard line reactors are designed to minimize the problems associated with waveform distortion that occurs with equipment utilizing solid state switching devices.
Line Reactors are often used to · Reduce harmonics · Extend solid state switching device life · Reduce motor noise and temperature · Improve power factor · Filter power line irregularities · Reduce surge currents
Reactors are available in either 3% or 5% ratings. Typically a 3% reactor will be sufficient to handle most solid state switching applications and will filter normal line spikes and surges. Nuisance circuit breaker tripping can usually be avoided. A 5% reactor should be used where considerably higher line disturbances exist and compliance with IEEE 519 is desired. The 5% reactor is also the most effective at improving motor life by reducing the effects of harmonic currents.
