MTE Corporation has launched its SineWave Nexus. The device is the newest extension to the company’s best-in-class motor protection filter family. The device stops high-frequency content and voltage peaks to increase system efficiency and motor life at any cable length.

The device is the optimal solution for decreasing common mode and differential mode voltages and currents because it cleans the PWM waveforms generated by Variable Frequency Drives and practically eradicates damaging common-mode voltages that create motor bearing failures. The device combines the performance of a sinewave filter and isolation transformer with the company’s patented common-mode protection technology into a single, compact design saving customers' time and money associated with sourcing and installing multiple solutions.

“We’re excited to bring a new motor protection solution to the market that will give customers peace of mind over the destructive common mode and differential mode voltages that breakdown motor bearings and motor insulations leading to motor failure,” said Z Zakaria, VP sales and marketing at MTE Corp. “The SineWave Nexus will protect against the pitting, frosting, and fluting damage caused by harmful voltages thus extending the life of the motor, increasing productivity, and reducing downtime due to motor failure.”
