Product details

Continuous output current is 215 A at 2.5 kHz switching frequency for normal duty, derating to 175 A for heavy duty. That gives you 1.1x current boost for 60 s under normal duty, 1.5x for heavy duty — enough for demanding starts but not for continuous overload. The switching frequency is adjustable from 2.5 to 4.9 kHz with a derating factor; lower frequencies mean less heat in the module but more audible noise on the motor. Apparent power runs 179 kVA normal duty, 158 kVA heavy duty at 600 V — useful for sizing upstream transformer. THDI is under 48% from 80-100% load, which meets most plant harmonic limits but check your site-specific requirement.
