Description
The ActivSine® series active harmonic filter operates on a three-level topology circuit. It provides power quality solutions such as harmonic elimination, real-time automatic power factor correction, and load balancing. It is available in three versions: a wall-mounted enclosure version, ranging from 30A to 150A, a rack-mountable version for standard 19” cabinets, ranging from 30A to 150A, and a cabinet version, ranging from 100A to 600A.
Its modular design allows users to easily achieve the desired filter current capacity by connecting up to 20 modules in parallel.

Operating principle of the active harmonic filter:
Advantages of the three-level topology:
The active harmonic filter operates on a three-level neutral point clamped (NPC) topology. As shown in the figure below, the traditional structure of the 2-level topology circuit consists of 6 IGBTs (2 IGBT power devices on each phase pin and current path), and in the 3-level topology, there are 12 IGBTs (in each phase, 4 IGBT power devices on the pins and current paths).
The three-level topology circuit can generate three voltage levels at the output, including the positive DC bus voltage, the zero voltage, and the negative DC bus voltage. Two-level topology circuits can only produce positive and negative voltages. At the same time, the three-level topology circuit also ensures higher quality output voltage and better harmonics, thereby reducing requirements for output filters and associated costs.
