– For deselecting the reactive power compensation option of the auxiliary filter settings disable the option 'PFC type'
in [/Welcome/Settings/Customer set./Auxiliary settings/Aux. PFC/Bal.].

5.7. Step 7: Start the filter

Close the filter door (fit the filter top cover in the PQFS filter) before starting the filter. The PQFS/PQFM contains a
main contactor that is controlled by the filter controller. The PQFI has a circuit breaker.
WARNING: Under no circumstances close the main contactor/circuit breaker manually. Failure to adhere to
this guideline may result in physical danger and in filter damage.
With all harmonics and reactive power compensation/balancing deselected, you can start the filter.
In order to do this with the PQF-Manager:
– Press
repeatedly until the 'Welcome' screen is displayed.
– Highlight the filter start/stop menu
should be present.
– Press
. The filter will ask confirmation and then it will start. The main breaker should close within 30 sec-
onds. One second after closing, the IGBTs will start and the filter will work under no load condition.
– The 'START'
running.
Detailed information on the filter start/stop menu can be found in the detailed manuals.
Remarks:
– If the start/stop menu reads 'ACK. FAULT'
needs to be corrected before the filter can be started. Refer to Chapter 11 for troubleshooting the problem.
– If the filter when activating the start menu displays a message to indicate that it is remote control mode, the filter
either has to be started by remote control or the remote control mode has to be deactivated. When a filter is set to
operate in "remote" mode, switching the filter ON or OFF from the PQF-Manager ON/OFF icon
mitted. The ON/OFF operation then needs to be performed using "remote" functionality or the remote control mode
needs to be deactivated [/Welcome/Settings/Customer Settings/Digital Input]. More information about the remote
control functionality is given in the detailed manuals.
– If one of the units in a multi-unit filter system does not switch on, the unit considered is in error. Refer to [/Wel-
come/PQF Monitoring/Status of modules]) to find out about the problem.

5.8. Step 8: Generate filter load

Once the filter is connected to the supply and is running, some filter load can be generated to verify if the filtering is
performing well.
