Swan Active Harmonic filter
+
Swan is solid state, State-of-the-Art designed filter, which measures
level of current harmonic in supply line and eliminates it by generating
the counter harmonics. The control and reduction of harmonics
improves the power quality in multi-folds, making the electrical
distribution system highest efficient. The power savings to the tune of
10 to 40% is possible, depending on the applications.
+
Swan developed by DB , is useful for end users as well as to the
power supply companies. For the user, it helps in optimizing use of
available power, increases productivity, decrease utility charges and
+
improves equipment reliability. In fact Swan has many more
unparalleled features ; it is the single answer on power quality issues
for all types of applications.

Perfect solution for Datacenter, IT, Industrial & Medical applications

 OPERATING PRINCIPLE +
Swan uses latest technology to eliminate harmonics injected
into the mains supply by non-linear loads, as well supplies
Fundamental only idistortion
Supply inductive power demanded by the load so as to correct input
Load power factor to near unity.
icompensation Current harmonic elimination is achieved by sensing load
current and extracting harmonic current signal. This, and the
Swan
reactive current signal, together are used to generate a
reference for the controlled current source connected at the
PCC (Point of Common Connection) of source and load. This
results in mains supplying only real power for the load and
reactive & harmonics being sourced from the Swan+. This is
carried out dynamically, so that any change in the load pattern

SWAN+ : Sizing Calculation

An easy to use software has been designed by DB Power

for calculating the rating of the Active Harmonic filter, Swan+.
For sizing the AHF following data should be available ;
- Present load current
- Measured value of THDi
- Power consumed
- Input PF measured
- Phase to phase voltage
After inputting the above data, define how much PF compensation is
required in percentage or the actual value for the installation and then click the 'calculate' button. The software
calculates required current rating of Swan+ and the effective power factor of the installation, after the Swan+ is
connected.

Swan has innate quality of separating milk from water.

This special quality of separating two mixed identities,
which otherwise is not easy, has inspired us to name
this State-of-the-art Active Filter as Swan.

Swan+, an active filter, cleans up electrical power and sets
