Commutating Choke for Converter Drives
It's rated for 500V AC, 50Hz, with a maximum continuous AC current of 200A and a peak current capability of 250A. The choke carries a DC-rated current of 245A, which is relevant for six-pulse bridge topologies where the DC link current is higher than the AC line input. Power dissipation splits into 174W coil loss and 78W iron core loss at rated load, totaling 252W — factor that into cabinet ventilation. Thermal class H (IEC 60085) insulation means the winding can sustain 180°C hot-spot temperature, giving margin in a 40°C ambient.
Physical footprint: 0.27m wide, 0.248m tall, 0.187m deep. The IP00 enclosure means it's an open-frame component — mount inside a cabinet that provides the environmental seal. Main circuit connections are flat-type terminals (bus-bar compatible), not screw lugs. Verify bus-bar hole pattern matches your panel layout before committing the drill template.
