MTE Introduces Motor Protection Filter

MTE Corporation announces the introduction of its new dV E-Series motor protection filter. Using a dV/dt filter enables uptime and protects AC motors from the destructive effects of the variable frequency drive (VFD) pulse width modulated voltage that can damage cables and motors.

The dV E-Series mitigates reflective waves, reduces rise time, and limits peak voltage, resulting in reduced motor heating, longer cable and motor life, and a significant reduction in downtime and total ownership cost. The dV E-series offers up to 60% lower watts loss versus competitive dV/dt filters, enabling more efficiency and savings, and ensuring longer life and protection for equipment around the filter. It is mounting compatible with MTE's dV Sentry and competitive options and features a compact design that is up to 73% lighter and 35% smaller for easier installation in crowded cabinets. The robust design operates over an extended temperature range from -40°C to 60°C and is backed by a three-year warranty.

"In collaboration with our customers, we identified a need for a high-value motor protection filter to bolster our industry-leading solutions," said Ahsan Javed, vice president of marketing at MTE Corporation. "Our comprehensive motor protection portfolio now includes the new dV E-Series, dV Sentry, SineWave Guardian, and SineWave Nexus, which provides our customers with the best products for any application."
