“It was a very simple installation and the
whole process was completed during a morning.
The filter is of the bare frame type but was easily
installed in a wall mounted transformer type steel
enclosure. The tech team at REO gave assistance
and recommendations for this type of enclosure
installation and the requirements.”
The CNW933 sinusoidal (or sine wave) filter
can eliminate the high frequency harmonics
produced by PWM phase convertors. With a field
frequency of 0–60 Hz, the CNW933 generates
sine wave currents to decrease electrical noise and
heat losses, and allows the customer to run his
new equipment exactly to the local machine tools
supplier’s specifications.
“When Mark phoned our technical sales team,
they were quickly able to confirm the best solution
for his application requirements,” explained Steve
Hughes, managing director of REO UK. “The
CNW933 is a robust and reliable solution to
overcome risks of damage to the motors and
delicate control circuits of his new machines.
“At REO, we deal mainly with equipment
manufacturers and electrical installers. On this
occasion, it was a pleasure to deal directly with an
end-use customer and receive positive feedback,
plus a follow-up order.”
Groves has since also installed REO’s
CNW103 low leakage electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) filter: “As my workshop
essentially runs from a domestic supply, I was
having issues with low-trip residual current
devices (RCDs) tripping while running machines.
The problem has gone away after I replaced the
previously installed high leakage filters with the
CNW103.”
He added: “REO’s technical team has been
very helpful and knowledgeable throughout these
projects. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them
and their products.”
