Passive Harmonic Filters
Standard off-the-shelf solution for passive harmonic mitigation
Mirus’ harmonic solution reduces the harmonic distortion on the variable speed drive, which means that you will get the best performance possible, while reducing energy usage and operating costs.
Compatible with engine driven generators thanks to the extremely low capacitive reactance, even at no load. Suppresses overvoltages caused by commutation notching, capacitor switching and other fast changing loads. Models available for AC Drives and DC Drives or other controlled rectifiers.

- Harmonics from other sources
- System Resonance
- Capacitive Reactance and Leading Power Factor
Mirus Lineator Solution
Mirus Lineator Advanced Universal Harmonic Filter (AUHF) is a revolutionary advancement in the area of passive harmonic mitigation. It includes 2 new Lineator models to meet business demanding applications.
Lineator-HPTM High Performance model used where the highest power quality demands must be met
Designed to offer <5%, THD(I). This level of harmonic mitigation matches Active Front end Drives (AFE’S) and Active Filter (AF) performance without the high frequency harmonics introduced by these more expensive and complex solutions.
With the addition of a new reactor design that allows for onsite reactor impedance optimisation, current distortion levels of <5% THD(I) are achieved without introducing excessive voltage drop or VSD instability.
Lineator-EDTM Extreme Duty model used when the operating conditions and environments can be harsh
For extreme environments, such as excessive background voltage distortion (5% to 12% VTHD), high ambient (up to 55º C) or high elevation (above 3000 ft).
Lineator AUHF outperforms other competitive filters by guaranteeing performance when background voltage distortion is as high as 5%. In some applications however, such as marine vessels, drilling rigs and oil fields equipped with electrical submersible pumps (ESP’s), existing voltage distortion levels will often exceed 5%. Also, when ambient temperature levels exceed 40º C or at higher elevations where the air is thinner, a more robust filter is required. The Lineator-ED model will meet this challenge.
