Trong ngày hôm nay, môi trường điện động, từ các cơ sở công nghiệp đến trung tâm dữ liệu, chất lượng sức mạnh là không thể thương lượng. Non-linear loads such as variable frequency drives and computers inject harmonic distortion, impacting efficiency and compliance. Bộ lọc hài hòa hoạt động (AHFS) or Active Power Filters (APFs) are advanced solutions engineered to eliminate these distortions by injecting real-time compensating currents—ensuring a clean, sinusoidal waveform. Trong blog này, we’ll explore the most common types of APFs, their applications, and how CoEpower’s innovative designs can meet your needs.
1. Shunt Active Filters (Shunt APF)
How they work: Connected in parallel with the load, shunt APFs measure harmonic currents and inject counter-currents to cancel them out.
Tốt nhất cho: Eliminating current harmonics, compensating reactive power, and balancing unbalanced loads.
Why choose it: Ideal for improving true power factor and reducing THD (Total Harmonic Distortion). Ví dụ, installations have reduced THD from 7% to under 3%.
2. Series Active Filters (Series APF)
How they work: These are placed in series with the supply and inject a compensating voltage to mitigate voltage harmonics.
Tốt nhất cho: Suppressing voltage distortion, regulating terminal voltage, and isolating sensitive loads from supply anomalies.
3. Hybrid Active Filters
What they combine: Hybrid APFs merge shunt, series, and often passive filter components into a single system.
Advantages: This hybrid design tackles both current and voltage harmonics effectively—leveraging active elements for dynamic, high-order mitigation and passive components for fixed, low-order frequencies.
4. Current-Source vs Voltage-Source Active Filters
Current‐source active filter: Injects compensating current—functionally similar to a shunt APF.
Voltage‐source active filter: Delivers compensating voltage in series—akin to a series APF.
5. Adaptive Active Filters
These systems deploy smart algorithms that dynamically adapt to changing harmonic profiles—providing more accurate and efficient filtering in real-time conditions.
6. Control & Compensation Strategies
Technology backbone: APFs typically rely on power electronics such as IGBTs or MOSFETs, paired with DSP or FPGA platforms, enabling rapid switching and precise harmonic cancellation.
Control methods:
Synchronous Reference Frame (SRF) or dq0 transforms simplify harmonic components into DC quantities, aiding in more straightforward filtering.
Instantaneous Reactive Power Theory (pq/IRPT) generates reference compensation currents based on real‐time calculations.
7. Why APFs Outperform Passive Filters
| Tính năng | Bộ lọc hài hòa hoạt động (APFs) | Passive Filters |
|---|---|---|
| Adaptability | Dynamic and responsive to variable loads | Tuned to fixed frequencies—less flexible |
| Harmonic Range | Mitigates multiple orders including high-order harmonics | Typically handles predetermined low-order harmonics only |
| Resonance Risks | Minimal resonance issues | Prone to resonance with system impedance |
| Size & Khả năng mở rộng | Nhỏ gọn, modular, scalable (VÍ DỤ., rack-mount, wall, cabinets) | Larger footprint, less modular |
8. CoEpower APF Highlights
Leveraging insights from CoEpower’s product offering, here’s what sets their APFs apart:
Installation Flexibility: Available in wall-mounted, rack-mounted, and cabinet-integrated designs to suit a wide range of environments.
Advanced Compensation: Employ FFT-based DSP microchips to identify harmonic orders and generate precise, real-time compensating currents.
Performance: Their AHF systems deliver rapid response speed and can reduce THD to below 5%, critical for stringent power quality targets.
Scalable Rack Options: The Parallel Rack-Mounted AHF Module fits standard 19″ racks—perfect for telecom/data cabinets.
Industrial Standards: Their high-protection class modules are TÜV-CE certified and comply with IEC 61000 & IEC 62477 standards.
In Conclusion, when optimizing power systems, selecting the right type of APF is critical. Shunt APFs are your go-to solution for current harmonics; series APFs safeguard voltage quality; hybrid APFs offer comprehensive coverage; and adaptive APFs provide ongoing, intelligent performance. CoEpower’s APF portfolio meets these needs head-on—bringing modular versatility, intelligent control, and compliance-grade reliability to the table.
