It delivers a THDI of 5 % for drives including the ATV630 (55 kW/75 hp), ATV930 (55 kW/75 hp), ATV950 (55 kW/75 hp), ATV61H (75–90 kW/100–125 hp), ATV71H (75–90 kW/100–125 hp), ATV71W (75 kW/100 hp), ATV61W (75–90 kW/100–125 hp), and ATV71Q (90 kW/125 hp). One filter per drive is required for the listed motor ratings. Rated for a 400 V +/- 10 % three-phase supply at 50 Hz +/- 2 %, the filter handles 144 A input current and 150 A output current. Efficiency is 98 %, with thermal losses of 962 W at full load. The 5 % THDI figure means the filter brings line current distortion below the limits set by IEC 61000-2-4, IEC 61000-2-2, G5/4, IEC 61000-3-4, IEC 61000-3-12, and IEC 61000-3-2 — the standards cited for this part. That is the compliance threshold a site engineer needs for grid connection approval in most European and UK installations. Cos phi varies with load: 1 at 150 % line current, 0.99 at 100 %, and 0.85 at 75 %. This tells you the filter does not significantly shift the power factor away from unity at full load — the displacement factor stays near 1.0 where it matters most for utility billing. The filter can sustain 1.5 x nominal current for 60 seconds, which covers the typical inrush and acceleration transient of a motor drive without nuisance tripping. IP20 as a standalone unit; IP55 when mounted inside an enclosure. That means it is suited for cabinet installation in a clean panel environment — not for direct outdoor or washdown exposure without a proper enclosure. Operating temperature range is 5…45 °C without derating; above 45 °C up to 60 °C, derate current by 3 % per °C. Storage in original packaging is -25…55 °C; transport range extends to -25…65 °C. Altitude derating applies above 1000 m: reduce current 5 % per additional 1000 m up to 4000 m. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6: 2 mm peak-to-peak at 5…13.2 Hz, 0.7 gn at 13.2…150 Hz. Relative humidity 5…85 % without condensation.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric VW3A46131 Passive Filter, 150A, 400V, 50H","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric VW3A46131 passive filter for Altivar drives. 150A input, 400V, 50Hz, THDI 5%, 98% efficiency.
