Best-in-class line/load reactors
Most robust, highest continuous
service factor
Low watts loss
Performance and durability that
is unmatched by the competition
Peace of mind included.
Our RL Line/Load Reactors are best-in class power
quality units with a long history of proven performance.
Rugged and robust, they are unequalled in absorbing
power line disturbances that can damage or shut down
variable frequency drives (VFDs) and other sensitive
equipment. They work on both the line side and load
side to give you an easy solution that reduces nuisance
tripping, reduces harmonic distortion and minimizes
long lead effects.
Improved power quality, enhanced productivity
and complete peace of mind are easy with RL Line/
Load Reactors.
Power quality.
Solved.
Get best-in-class performance with our
RL Line/Load Reactors.
Our RL Line/Load Reactors are a robust, best-in-class
filtering solution for virtually any 4 or 6-pulse rectifier
or power conversion unit. There is no need to de-rate
these reactors. They are harmonic compensated
and protected to assure optimum performance in
the presence of harmonics, and can help you meet
IEEE-519 requirements. There are units available for
a full line of currents (1A to 1,500A) and a full line of
impedance options (1.5%, 3% and 5%).
