The VW3A46155: The 369 A output rating governs the maximum continuous current the filter can handle. The 480 V +/- 10 % supply voltage matches standard North American 480 V three-phase systems. The 10 % THDI figure means the filter brings the total harmonic current distortion down to 10 % at the drive's input — this is what gets you past IEC 61000-3-2 and G5/4 compliance thresholds for harmonic emission limits. Efficiency runs at 98 %, so thermal losses are 952 W — that heat has to be managed in the enclosure. The filter is a three-phase passive type, IP20 rated for panel mounting, or IP55 when enclosure-mounted. It's designed to sit between the line supply and the drive input. Ambient temperature range is 5 to 45 °C without derating; above that up to 60 °C you derate 3 % per °C. Operating altitude above 1000 m requires derating 5 % per 1000 m.
