Matrix Filters®
Product Overview
MTE Matrix Filters solve the problem of
harmonic distortion on virtually any two or
six pulse rectifier. These power supplies are
commonly found in electronic
equipment such as adjustable speed motor
drives,
welders, battery chargers, servo drives and
other equipment. MTE provides solutions for both three phase and single phase harmonic applications. MTE Matrix products have evolved from the original Series A to the refined patented new MTE Series D Filter. New single phase matrix filters have been added to provide higher levels of single phase third harmonic mitigation.
Please see the colored brochures featuring these products.
Harmonics are a problem
Harmonic distortion has become an increasing
concern for facility managers, users of automation
equipment and specifying engineers alike.
Harmonics not only waste energy, but they
reduce equipment life, electrical system reliability,
system efficiency and equipment productivity.

Guaranteed results
Unlike other harmonic filter technologies, the performance of MTE Matrix Harmonic Filters
is guaranteed! On AC variable frequency, variable torque drive applications (fans & pumps), Matrix filters will meet the guaranteed maximum levels of THID (total harmonic current distortion) all the way from no load to full load. Additionally, Matrix filters will not cause power system resonance nor attract harmonics from other non-linear loads. No system analysis is required to select and apply Matrix Filters.
Typical Applications Include:
Mission critical facilities
AC variable frequency drives
DC adjustable speed drives
Electronic welders
Battery chargers
Fans and Pumps
Water Treatment Facilities
Induction heating equipment
Elevator drives
3-phase power supplies
Any 6-pulse rectifier

Meets International power quality standards
such as:
IEEE-519, G5/4, AS2279,EN61000
UL Listed (UL-508)
Matrix Harmonic filters are UL listed (File E180243) for both USA and Canada.

Convert 6-pulse Drives to Multi-pulse Harmonic Performance
Matrix filters allow users to achieve attenuation of harmonics to levels below that previously attainable only by using 12-pulse or 18-pulse rectification methods. Use standard 6-pulse drives and our MD & M5 series matrix Filters in place of 18-pulse rectifiers and use our M8 Series in lieu of 12-pulse rectifiers.
