Mains Choke for Variable-Frequency Drives
It's rated for 202 A continuous with a 224 A maximum, at 460 V AC and 60 Hz, with a 5% relative inductive voltage drop.
The 202 A rated current (I LN) is the continuous thermal rating at 40 °C ambient — this is the number to match against your drive's input current, not the 224 A maximum (I thmax) which is a short-time overload figure. The 0.16 mH inductance at 60 Hz gives a 5% voltage drop at rated current, which is a standard value for smoothing DC-bus ripple and limiting harmonic distortion on the line side. Thermal class H (IEC 60085) means the winding insulation handles up to 180 °C hot-spot temperature — fine for a 40 °C ambient panel with some internal heat rise.
The choke measures 0.35 m wide, 0.321 m tall, and 0.237 m deep. That's a substantial block — about the size of a small suitcase — so verify your panel's mounting plate has the footprint and clearance for airflow. Main circuit connections are flat-type terminals, which typically accept busbar or cable lug terminations; plan for the appropriate crimp lugs and a torque wrench. IP00 means no finger-safe enclosure, so it needs to live behind a locked panel door or inside a separate electrical room.
