1 Introduction

1.1 Purpose

The ecosine active sync User and Installation Manual provide information for unpacking,
installation and commissioning of the filter and describe mechanical and electrical installation
of the filters. It contains basic information about parameters and communication as well as
troubleshooting information.
The instructions are intended for use by qualified personnel. Reading and following these
instructions is mandatory. Particular attention need to be given to the general safety notes
and installation guidelines (cautions and warnings)! Keep these instructions available with
the filter(s) at all time s.

Installation of the ecosine active sync filter, inspections for proper operation, and certain
troubleshooting measures may only be performed by qualified personnel. All other measures
may be performed by people who have read these instructions.

1.2 Additional Resources

The Schaffner group does provide a number of additional resources available at
schaffner.com to understand power quality in general and product in particular.

The ecosine active sync filter maintenance manual provides information on maintenance and
testing for field service technicians, as well as disassembly and assembly instructions for
wear parts.

3 Environmental Conditions / Exclusion of warranty

This document classifies groups of environmental parameters and their severities to which
ecosine active harmonic filters are subjected when mounted for stationary use at weather
protected locations under use conditions, including periods of erection work, down time,
maintenance and repair. The lifetime of electronic equipment is depending on the
environmental conditions they are exposed to. Especially in harsh environments lifetime is
reduced due to the corrosiveness of the atmospheric environment. Generally corrosion in
micro or power electronics depends on several variants such as the package type, materials
involved, assembly processes, moisture, inorganic and organic contaminants, atmospheric
pollutants, temperature, thermal stress and electrical bias. To increase the lifetime Schaffner
provides all ecosine active filters with the ability to work within pollution degree 2 (PD2) and
does use coated PCB’s according to IEC61721-3-3. Schaffner standard PCB construction
complies with class 3C2. Please carefully read the provided information and check if your
application fulfills the required specifications as Schaffner expressly points out that the
manufacturer's warranty shall lapse with immediate effect if ecosine active sync harmonic
filters are transported, stored, installed or operated outside their published specifications.

Important

Ecosine active sync harmonic filters (AHF) listed below are IP20
or IP54 devices to be installed in an environment in compliance
with the requirements named in this document.

All AHF must be installed in a clean, dry location, e.g. in
sufficiently ventilated or air-conditioned electric cabinets or closed
electric rooms. Contaminants such as oils, liquids, corrosive
vapors, abrasive debris, dust and aggressive gases must be kept
out of the filter enclosure.

WARNING: Conductive dust may cause damage to ecosine
active sync harmonic filters. Ensure that installation site of
ecosine active sync is free of conductive dust.
