ABB 3BHL000359P0001 CAPACITOR, FILTER
Overview
ABB 3BHL000359P0001 is a 3‑phase high‑voltage filter capacitor, superseding the old part number HL000359P0001. It is a power component for ABB medium‑voltage drive systems. Widely used inside ABB ACS1000 medium‑voltage converters, it performs harmonic suppression, voltage smoothing and reactive‑power filtering. This is an end‑of‑life spare part. Designed for high‑pulse‑voltage and high‑frequency harmonic conditions, it stabilizes the DC‑link and filter circuits of the drive unit, serving as a critical replacement spare for medium‑voltage variable‑frequency drive maintenance.

Product Structure & Physical Features
Model 3BHL000359P0001 is an integrated 3‑phase filter capacitor module, not discrete single cylindrical capacitors. It is enclosed in a metal protective housing integrating three sets of 50μF high‑voltage film capacitor cells, fitted with high‑voltage insulated output terminals. The housing offers protective features for cabinet‑mount installation in medium‑voltage drive cabinets, capable of handling harmonics and peak pulse voltages generated by medium‑voltage converters.
Note: No standalone downloadable datasheet is available on ABB public website. This component is a built‑in BOM item for the complete drive unit. Specifications are only published within the complete‑unit BOM and spare‑part catalogs, with no dedicated public product webpage.
Core Functions
‑ Harmonic Filtering: Absorb high‑order harmonics generated by power cells of medium‑voltage converters and reduce harmonic impact on internal power components.‑ DC‑Link Voltage Smoothing: Buffer and filter voltages of power conversion circuits and suppress voltage spikes.‑ Reactive‑Power Compensation: Handle partial internal reactive power of the drive system and stabilize medium‑voltage bus voltage.‑ System Surge Suppression: Absorb transient voltage shocks caused by switching‑on/off and load variations, protecting core power components such as IGCTs.
Application Scenarios
‑ Spare‑part replacement for ABB ACS1000 medium‑voltage converter drive systems‑ High‑power medium‑voltage motor drive equipment for mining, cement and metallurgy industries‑ Medium‑voltage variable‑frequency drive cabinets for large‑capacity industrial fans and pumps‑ Maintenance and replacement of auxiliary‑equipment medium‑voltage drive units in power‑generation industry
Failure Symptoms & Replacement Tips
When 3BHL000359P0001 ages and fails, the following symptoms may occur:‑ Converter reports over‑voltage and harmonic‑related faults with frequent tripping‑ Capacitor module housing bulging, fluid leakage or abnormal temperature rise‑ Fluctuating output voltage of drive unit and increased operating noise
Replacement Notes: This is a high‑voltage power component. High‑voltage discharge must be performed before disassembly and assembly. Strictly follow the hardware service manual of ACS1000. Ordinary low‑voltage capacitors cannot be used as substitutes; the identical 3‑phase high‑voltage filter module is mandatory.
Documentation Note
Full specifications are only available in the ABB ACS1000 Spare Parts List (BOM). No standalone component‑level PDF manual exists.
FAQ
Q1: Can 3BHL000359P0001 directly replace HL000359P0001?A: Yes. 3BHL000359P0001 is the upgraded part number of HL000359P0001. Electrical parameters and mounting dimensions are fully compatible for direct interchange.
Q2: Can three separate 50μF high‑voltage capacitors replace this module?A: Not recommended. This module comes with internal 3‑phase matching, insulation and protective structures. Discrete capacitors hardly meet OEM standards for parameter consistency and dielectric strength, which may lead to equipment failure risks.
Q3: Why is there no dedicated product page for this part on ABB official website?A: It is a built‑in BOM spare part instead of an independently‑sold standard product. Its specifications are embedded in the spare‑part list of the complete ACS1000 drive unit.
