Smoothing chokes ensure reliable performance of inverters that are used for soft-starting large industrial loads which often may be more than 12 MW in capacity. Thanks to their accurate and reliable inductance properties, these chokes facilitate gradual and smooth current flow. This protects facilities against premature equipment breakdown by controlling starting torque, inrush current, pulsations, di/dt by smoothing the current waveform during the start-up process.

MANGOLDT smoothing chokes are used around the world in power plants or large production facilities, where permanent full function is required. Each of the components, with weights up to 5 tons, is designed and optimised for the unique and specific requirements of the application. Inductance is precise and confirmed through 100% testing prior to delivery. Customers enjoy intended performance and reliability for the long term.
