Lineator™ Case Study: Rambam Hospital Israel
Rambam Health Care Hospital and Campus was looking to save energy and purchased two new Chillers at 240kW each for their cooling system. The new Chillers were equipped with VFD’s which consumed far less energy per cooling ton but drew current from the electrical supply in nonlinear pulses ultimately causing the hospital’s supply voltage to become increasingly distorted. The distorted system voltage affected the reliable operation of sensitive equipment in the hospital and required a resolution immediately. . Read more
GENLINK™ Case Study: Fast Food Industry Distribution Warehouse
A large distribution facility servicing the fast food industry in Conroe, Texas had recently decided to expand its standby generation capacity and added a 1000 kW generator to the existing 750 kW unit at the site. The electrical contractor and generator supplier noticed that there was an excessive amount of neutral circulating current when both generators were paralleled and if left untreated could cause the generators to overheat or the circuit protection to trip inadvertently. .

Lineator™ and SOLV™ Case Study: SkyVenture Montreal
The Owners of SkyVenture Montreal were building a new dedicated facility for its first Canadian location and were eager to keep to its grand opening schedule. To achieve the required wind speeds, their blowers needed to use four (4) 350HP Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). Using SOLV™, Mirus’ exclusive harmonic analysis software, the consulting engineer ran simulations and found that Lineators™ would decrease the harmonic distortion dramatically and meet IEEE Standard 519 limits for both voltage and current. Using Lineators also offered greater efficiency resulting in a shorter payback period as a result of the energy cost savings. Read more
Lineator™ Case Study: Natural Gas Sweetening Plant
A natural gas processing and transportation company, located in British Columbia, Canada, had commissioned the installation of 8 Motor Control Centers (MCC's), each exclusively loaded with adjustable frequency drives, for an upgrade at one of their natural gas sweetening plants. Since the plant power supply is entirely fed by on-site turbine generators, the heavy concentration of drives raised significant concern about harmonics and their effect on power quality. Using Lineators™, voltage and current distortion were well below the project target and IEEE Std 519 guidelines. Read more
Lineator™ Case Study: Chevron’s Simonette Well Site
When Chevron uses adjustable speed drives to control motors that operate submersible pumps in remote, unmanned oil wells, they require high reliability in power systems to achieve financial objectives. Therefore, harmonic control to ensure power quality is paramount. Engineers at Chevron decided to take preventive measures to limit harmonics at well sites. For applications where a low voltage drive is the only non-linear load, and when it is a relatively low horsepower (1000 HP or less), Chevron selected Mirus' Lineator™ Universal Harmonic Filter (UHF). Choosing the Lineator™ was 9% less expensive, easier to install and provided better than 18-pulse performance. Read more
