Smoothing Reactors

MSI Smoothing ReactorSmoothing Reactors

DC Smoothing Reactor, similar to a DC choke uses its inductance to reduce ripple current on a DC line. They also limit inrush currents. Smoothing reactors are commonly found on electric passenger trains. Magnetic Specialties can design a smoothing reactor for the harshest environment.

Features

  • Current ratings up to 2000 ADC
  • Single phase
  • Single or dual coil construction
  • Designed not to saturate up to customer specified overcurrent
  • Magnetic Specialties core leg construction results in quiet construction
  • Self-cooled, forced-air cooled, or water cooled
  • Aluminum or copper windings

 

Optional

  • Encapsulation
  • Temperature monitoring via thermal switches, thermocouples, or platinum RTDs
