The Schneider Electric METSEPM5340 is an AC line reactor (input choke) designed for use with variable frequency drives (VFDs). It is a key harmonic mitigation and power quality component installed on the input (line side) of a drive.
Parameters
Parameter Specification
Product Family Harmonic & Power Quality Solutions / AC Line Reactors
Component Type 3-Phase AC Line Reactor (Input Choke)
Commercial Reference METSEPM5340
Compatible Load 34 A (RMS, at specified voltage and frequency)
