This Siemens 4EP3910-7AS00 is a three-phase mains choke (Netzdrossel) rated for 500 V AC, 50 A maximum (45 A rated), with an inductance of 0.57 mH. It's built for line-side filtering in a 50/60 Hz drive or converter input — the 3% relative inductive voltage drop at rated current tells you how much it knocks down harmonics and limits inrush. The IP00 open-frame construction means it mounts inside a panel, not exposed; screw terminals for the main circuit make field wiring straightforward.
Sizing and fit
At 0.219 m wide, 0.179 m tall, and 0.123 m deep, this choke fits a standard enclosure footprint. The total power loss (coil 43.8 W plus iron 24.2 W) adds about 68 W of heat to the cabinet — factor that into your ventilation or cooling budget. Thermal class B insulation (130 °C) per IEC 60085 gives it a solid margin above a 40 °C ambient.
Lifecycle and sourcing
The lifecycle stage is mature, meaning it's an established, stable design — no imminent phase-out flagged. It's sourced to order through independent distribution; submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability. No direct replacement is listed, but the 45 A rated / 50 A max envelope covers most 37–45 kW drive inputs at 400 V.
