Overview
The VW3A46103 is a Schneider Altivar passive harmonic filter rated for a 7.5 kW/10 hp drive at 400 V three-phase, 50 Hz, with a switching current of 14 A and thermal losses of 118 W. It delivers 98% efficiency at unity power factor and is sealed to IP20, suiting it for installation inside a drive cabinet rather than a standalone enclosure.
Lifecycle and sourcing
Schneider discontinued the VW3A46103 on 2023-06-30; remaining units are sourced through surplus and broker channels rather than current distribution. For an existing panel that must keep the original code, an RFQ confirms available quantity and lead time for a line-down or last-time-buy decision.
