TDK presents the Epcos LeaXield technology, a new and innovative active leakage current filter. LeaXield enables massive reduction of earth leakage currents, this enables effective use of RCDs (residual current devices) and increases plant availability. Earth leakage currents can cause RCDs to trip at threshold, this results in RCDs not being viable options without additional outlay.
The unintentional tripping of a universal RCD (Type B/Type B+) can be prevented by LeaXield. These RCD types have different tripping characteristics and note that in accordance with EN 50178 / VDE 0160, variable speed drive systems are only acceptable when a type B/B+ RCD is used.
The LeaXield is well suited for use with variable speed drives and suitable applications include, pluggable devices, pumps, compressors and conveyance systems.
