1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
ONLY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CAN CARRY OUT THE ELECTRICAL
INSTALLATION OF THIS FILTER
WARNING
High voltage is used in the operation of this filter. Use Extreme caution to avoid contact with high voltage when operating, installing or repairing this filter. INJURY, DEATH AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE MAY RESULT IF SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT OBSERVED.
After removing power, allow at least five minutes to elapse and verify that the capacitors have discharged to a safe level before contacting internal components. Connect a DC voltmeter across the capacitor terminals or terminals 1, 2 and 3 on terminal block 1TB. Start with the meter on the highest scale and progressively switch to a lower scale as the indicated voltage falls below the maximum value of the scale used.
WARNING
THE OPENING OF THE BRANCH CIRCUIT PROTECTIVE DEVICE MAY BE AN INDICATION THAT A FAULT CURRENT HAS BEEN INTERRUPTED. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK, CURRENT-CARRYING PARTS AND OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE FILTER SHOULD BE EXAMINED AND REPLACED IF DAMAGED.
WARNING
AN UPSTREAM DISCONNECT/PROTECTION DEVICE MUST BE USED AS REQUIRED BY THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE (NEC).
WARNING
EVEN IF THE UPSTREAM DISCONNECT/ PROTECTION DEVICE IS OPEN, THE DRIVE DOWN STREAM OF THE FILTER MAY FEED BACK HIGH VOLTAGE TO THE FILTER. THE DRIVE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED.
INJURY, DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE MAY RESULT IF THE DRIVE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT O BSERVED.
WARNING
THE FILTER MUST BE GROUNDED WITH A GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CONNECTED TO ALL GROUNDING TERMINALS

2. INTRODUCTION
GE Capacitor & Power Quality Product
This manual was specifically developed to assist in the installation, interconnection and operation of the GE Matrix Filter.
This manual is intended for use by personnel experienced in the operation and maintenance of electronic drives. Because of the high voltages required by the filter and drive and the potential dangers presented by rotating machinery, it is essential that all personnel involved in the operation and maintenance of this filter know and practice the necessary safety precautions for this type of equipment. Personnel should read and understand the instructions contained in this manual before installing, operating or servicing the filter and the drive to which the filter is connected.
Upon Receipt of this Filter:
The GE Matrix Filter has been subjected to demanding factory tests before shipment. Carefully inspect the shipping container for damage that may have occurred in transit. Then unpack the filter and carefully inspect for any signs of damage. Save the shipping container for future transport of the filter.
If the equipment is not going to be put into service upon receipt, cover and store the filter in a clean, dry location. After storage, ensure that the equipment is dry and that no condensation has accumulated on the internal components of the filter before applying power.
Repair/Exchange Procedure
GE requires a Returned Material Authorization Number before it can accept any filters that qualify for return or repair. If problems or questions arise during installation, setup, or operation of the filter, please call us for assistance at:
Phone: 518-746-5793 FAX: 518-746-5524

5. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GE Capacitor & Power Quality Products
Filter Installation
Matrix Filters are supplied in the following mechanical configurations:
Panel mounted assemblies Floor mounted general purpose NEMA 1, 2,
& 3R cabinets Industrial style NEMA 1 cabinets with
hinged doors.
Panel mounted filters are designed for mounting in the vertical plane in the customer’s enclosure. Include the power dissipation of the filter along with all the other components located in the panel to determine the internal temperature rise and cooling requirements of the enclosure. Allow a minimum side clearance of four (4) inches and a vertical clearance of six (6) inches for proper heat dissipation and access. Figure 7 through Figure 15 contain outline drawings for the various ratings and show proper mounting orientation. For 5% filters, Model numbers beginning with 37GM5, refer to Figure 15 and Table 5 for the dimensions of the separately mounted input reactor.
Industrial style NEMA 1 enclosed filters are designed for wall and floor mounting in the vertical plane. Do not install in or near a corrosive environment. Avoid locations where the filter would be subjected to excessive vibrations. For wall mounted enclosures allow a minimum side clearance of eight (8) inches and front clearance of forty-eight (48) inches for proper heat dissipation and access. For floor mounted enclosures allow a minimum side and back clearance of eight (8) inches and front clearance of forty-eight (48) inches for proper heat dissipation and access. Table will direct you to the appropriate outline drawings shown in Figure
20 through
7
Select a well ventilated, dust-free area away from direct sunlight, rain or moisture. Do not install in or near a corrosive environment. Avoid locations where the filter would be subjected to excessive vibrations.
General purpose NEMA 1, 2, and 3R enclosed filters are designed for floor mounting in the vertical plane in an environment suitable for the enclosure type. Do not install in or near a corrosive environment. Avoid locations where the filter would be subjected to excessive vibrations. Allow a minimum side and back clearance of eight (8) inches and front clearance of thirty-six (36) inches for proper heat dissipation and access. Table 6 will direct you to the appropriate outline drawings shown in Figure 16 through Figure 19.
