FAQs
HCUN030Y4CH00 is designed for 208-415 Vac, 3ph+N service with a 30 A rating and IP0x chassis. It integrates with standard switchgear and electrical cabinets, enabling straightforward retrofit or new-install harmonics mitigation without extensive panel redesign. The unit supports common DIN rail or rack-based layouts typical in industrial facilities.
The unit actively corrects harmonic currents, reducing total harmonic distortion and limiting heat buildup in transformers and conductors. By meeting IEEE Std. 519 and IEC 61000-3-2/3-4 targets, it lowers energy losses, minimizes nuisance trips, and extends the life of motors, drives, and power conversion equipment in automation lines.
Yes. Its 30 A rating, 208-415 Vac, and 3ph+N compatibility suit data centers with power-intensive non-linear loads and manufacturing lines with multiple VFDs and drives. The solution provides consistent harmonic mitigation, improves reliability, and reduces cooling loads associated with stray harmonic heating in critical equipment.
HCUN030Y4CH00 carries IEC 61000-3-2 and IEC 61000-3-4 compliance, IEEE Std. 519 alignment, and UL 508C and CSA C22.2 No. 14 considerations. These certifications support safe operation in regulated environments, ease utility coordination, and simplify approvals during panel assembly and commissioning.
By reducing harmonic losses and preventing downstream equipment stress, the unit lowers energy costs and minimizes downtime, delivering a favorable ROI over typical asset lifetimes. Routine maintenance is straightforward due to modular chassis design and documented specifications, helping maintenance teams plan service windows with minimal disruption.
