AC Line Reactors
Protect your sensitive equipment from harmful line disturbances
with Acme AC Line Reactors. AC Line Reactors help prevent
equipment failure and downtime, and can add years to the
life of your equipment.
Designed to protect DC motor drives, AC variable frequency
drives and the motors they power . AC Line Reactors allow
Acme to augment the Drive Isolation T ransformer package
to offer both line and load power quality protection for a
wide range of applications.
Our product line features flexible design and ease of installation
for use in a variety of applications such as paper machines,
process lines, press controls and drive systems, along with
tube mills and other sophisticated process equipment. These
applications are found in such industries as food and beverage,
paper , packaging systems and printing.

Applying Acme AC Line Reactors
Acme’ s three-phase AC Line Reactors can be used as an input filter for adjustable speed DC drives and as input or
output filters for AC pulse width modulated variable frequency drives. They are bi-directional protective filtering
devices and can be applied in a variety of configurations.
Input to Inverter/Drive
AC Line Reactors protect your sensitive equipment from noise
generated by the drive or inverter . They protect the controller from
power surges, spikes and harmonic distortion.
Output of Inverter/Drive
Motors run cooler and quieter with an AC Line Reactor placed
between the inverter and motor . This application also reduces
dv/dt and protects the controller from short circuits and surges.
Multiple Controllers on a Single Power Line
Each drive or inverter on a single power line requires its own AC
Line Reactor in order to provide adequate surge protection, prevent
crosstalk and reduce harmonic distortion.
Multiple Motors Controlled by a
Single Drive
Multiple motors controlled by a single drive require only one AC Line
Reactor between the controller and motors.
