The Siemens 4EU3632-0FR08-1BA0 is a 3-phase filter reactor rated at 130 kVAR, 500 V, 50 Hz, with a 5.67% impedance (P). It's built to EN 61558-2-20 as a choke, meaning it's designed for harmonic filtering and line-side protection in power distribution. The IP00 enclosure means it's an open-frame unit — intended for installation inside a cabinet or panel, not for standalone outdoor use. Terminals are flat-type, so plan for busbar or lug connections rather than standard wire terminals.
The 130 kVAR rating tells you the reactive power handling at 500 V, 50 Hz. That's the size of the capacitor bank or drive system it's meant to pair with. The 5.67% impedance (P) is the voltage drop at rated current — standard for line reactors used to limit inrush and harmonic distortion. The listed ripple voltage percentages (110 /0 /6 /5) and resonant frequency of 210 Hz are tuning parameters; if you're replacing an existing reactor, match these to avoid shifting the system's harmonic resonance point. The 40 K temperature rise at rated load (TA/ISOKL:40 /H) means it runs warm — ensure adequate ventilation in the enclosure.
Deployment context
IP00 and flat-type terminals tell you this is a panel-mount component — it goes inside a switchgear or drive cabinet, connected via busbars or lugs. No enclosure protection of its own, so the cabinet's IP rating must cover the environment. The 130 kVAR size is typical for medium-voltage drive input sections or large capacitor bank detuning. Plan for adequate clearance around the reactor for airflow and magnetic field coupling.
