Customer Name:Central South University Powder Metallurgy Research Institute

Harmonic Load:Medium frequency heating furnace

Purchased Equipment:Device-level filterSSFGD

Project Background

Central South University Powder Metallurgy Research Institute is a comprehensive base for teaching, scientific research, and new product trial development in the field of powder metallurgy in China. It has established three national-level bases: the "National Key Laboratory of Powder Metallurgy", the "National Key Laboratory of Lightweight High-Strength Structural Materials", and the "National Engineering Research Center for Powder Metallurgy". The research institute has 8 research institutes and 5 experimental (testing) centers, equipped with advanced powder metallurgy process equipment and testing instruments, and is one of the first research institutes to obtain the national "foreign trade import and export rights".

Electricity Overview (Medium Frequency Heating Furnace)

The Central South University Powder Metallurgy Research Institute currently has 1 medium frequency heating furnace with a rated power of 160kW and a voltage of 0.4kV. The medium frequency heating furnace is a typical nonlinear load that generates a large amount of 5th and 7th harmonics during operation, affecting the stable operation of other equipment. There is an urgent need to solve the harmonic problem to ensure electrical safety.

Device-level filter

Design Plan
