Fig. 2.1: Pure and Modified Sine Waveforms for 230 VAC, 50 Hz
The output waveform of the Samlex PST series inverters is a Pure Sine Wave like the
waveform of Utility / Grid Power. Please see Sine Wave represented in the Fig. 2.1 that
In a Sine Wave, the voltage rises and falls smoothly with a smoothly changing phase
Wave, the voltage rises and falls abruptly, the phase angle also changes abruptly and
it sits at zero V for some time before changing its polarity. Thus, any device that uses a
control circuitry that senses the phase (for voltage / speed control) or instantaneous zero
voltage crossing (for timing control) will not work properly from a voltage that has a
Sine Waves of odd harmonics (multiples) of the fundamental frequency of the

frequency harmonics also produce overloading effect in low frequency capacitors due to
lowering of their capacitive reactance by the higher harmonic frequencies. These capaci-
