Reflected Wave Trap
Reflected Wave Trap
(OP)
Gentlemen,
I recently read the information about new device patented by Cutler-Hammer - "Reflected Wave Trap" which is claimed to be a replacement for all known means of fighting the reflected wave phenomenon in VFD systems: load reactors, dv/dt filters, impedance termination networks. Does anybody have any experience with usage or testing of these "traps"?
Its application sounds quite attractive and cost effective, however some comments would be very helpful.

I've been in this business a long time and the snake oil (false claims) literally runs in the streets!
