Filter Reactor, 100 kVAR, 400 V, 50 Hz
The Siemens 4EU3632-0FM00-0BA0 is a three-phase filter reactor rated at 100 kVAR, 400 V, 50 Hz, with a 5.67% impedance. It is constructed to EN 61558-2-20, the standard for chokes and reactors.
The 100 kVAR rating at 400 V defines the reactive power compensation this reactor can handle continuously. The 5.67% impedance (P(%):5,67) is the voltage drop across the reactor at rated current — a common value for harmonic filtering and motor-drive line protection. The 50 Hz frequency is fixed; this reactor is not suitable for 60 Hz systems without derating. The ripple voltage specification (RIPPLE VOLT. (%):110 /0 /6 /5) and resonant frequency of 210 Hz (FRES(HZ):210) describe the harmonic tuning: the reactor is designed to suppress the 5th harmonic (250 Hz on a 50 Hz fundamental) and offer some attenuation at other frequencies. The screw/flat-type terminals accept lugs or busbar connections typical for power distribution.
Deployment Context
As an IP00 open-frame reactor, the 4EU3632-0FM00-0BA0 mounts inside a panel or cabinet where the enclosure provides the environmental protection. The screw/flat-type terminals are designed for power wiring with lugs or busbars. Typical applications include harmonic filtering on variable-frequency drives, line reactors for motor protection, and reactive power compensation in industrial power distribution.
