VLT Sine-Wave Filters

Sine-wave filters are placed between the frequency
converter and the motor. They are low-pass filters that

sinusoidal. This reduces the motor insulation stress, bear-
ing currents and eliminates the switching acoustic noise
from the motor.
VLT dV/dt Filters

dV/dt filters are placed between the frequency converter

Configure your VLT drive
The Drive Configurator gives you the possibility to configure (select) the right drive for your purpose
You dont have to consider if the combinations are valid, while the configurator only gives you valid selections.
Drive Configurator
The Danfoss Drive Configurator is an
advanced but easy-to-use tool to
configure the Danfoss VLT frequency
converter that exactly matches your
requirements.
The Drive Configurator generates the

unique article number for the drive
you need, preventing errors during
order entry.
Decoding is also available: Enter a

Typecode and the Drive Configurator
will decode the configuration and
show configuration for your drive.
Reverse engineering is also

supported: Enter an article number
and the Drive Configurator will
display the exact configuration for the
drive in question, including all options
and special features. A further
advantage of using the Drive
Configurator is that it tells you exactly
which options and features are
avaible and so prevents you selecting
conflicting or nonsensical
combinations.
If you need to replace an obsolete

product, just enter the article number
of the older VLT and the Drive
Configurator will provide details of
the appropriate newer generation
replacement.
Last but by no means least, the Drive

Configurator provides quick access to
the available spare parts and
accessories for both current and
obsolete products.
