Background
This test report outlines testing at MTE Corporation. The goal of this testing was to confirm the harmonic, power
factor and efficiency performance of a Yaskawa A1000 VFD with an MTE Matrix-AP Filter.
Testing Outline
Matrix-AP Part
System HP Drive Part No. Motors
No.
Unit was supplied power from a 480V breaker and its outputs were run to motor-dyne sets. Each dyne set
contains a drive motor that is driven by the drive system and a load motor driven from the line. The load
will be added by increasing the speed differential between the load motor and the drive motor. The
diagram below shows a basic outline of the setup.

Measurements recorded at varying loads from 30-96%. The below diagram displays the location of the
input and output measurements. Waveforms were recorded at 30, 50, 75 and 100% load.

Note: 100% Load was measured as worst case for DC Bus Ripple
Conclusions
The testing confirmed the performance of the system. The THID performance of the system at 30% load was
slightly higher than 8%. This is most likely due to the source impedance being below 1%. The oversized load may
also have played a role in this. At all other load points the THID was below 8% dropping below 5% at 55% load.
In addition, power factor was within normal ranges for this filter.
