Lineator™ ED
The Mirus Lineator™ Extreme Duty (ED) is a heavy-duty passive harmonic filter engineered specifically to maintain high performance in harsh electrical and environmental conditions. Designed as a ruggedized option for the Lineator™ AUHF platform, this filter protects critical variable speed drives and power distribution systems against high background voltage distortion, extreme ambient temperatures, and high elevations.
Technical Overview
The Lineator™ ED utilizes a passive architecture and can withstand harsh physical environments and pre-existing line-side disturbances that would destabilize standard filter designs.
- Robust structural design capable of performing reliably in environments with pre-existing voltage distortion up to 12% VTHD.
- High thermal overhead allows continuous full-load operation in ambient temperatures reaching 55°C without premature component degradation.
- Engineered configurations account for the reduced cooling capacity of thinner air at elevations exceeding 3,000 feet.
- Purely passive wide-spectrum filter design that contains no sensitive power electronics or active front-end tracking systems.
- Safeguards critical electronic loads and variable frequency drives from operational failure under severe environmental constraints.
Typical Applications
The Lineator™ ED series is specified for remote, high-temperature, or high-altitude industrial installations where grid quality is unstable or severely compromised.

Engineering & Support
Mirus provides advanced simulation utilities and technical guidance to ensure proper filter sizing and compliance in severe environments.
SOLV™ Harmonic Simulation Software
Complimentary software tools and engineering support to predict system behavior under extreme background distortion and complex load parameters.
Direct Application Engineering
Factory access to design engineers for the sizing, configuration, and verification of filters destined for harsh field conditions.
Engineered for Performance
The Lineator™ ED guarantees harmonic mitigation where traditional filters fail. While standard passive and active systems must be severely derated or suffer electrical faults when background voltage distortion exceeds 5%, the Lineator™ ED is purpose-built to thrive at up to 12% VTHD.
Operating under a direct-to-engineer model, Mirus, a specialized division of Federal Pacific, ensures that your most exposed industrial assets—from high-altitude mines to desert oil wells—maintain absolute hardware stability and power quality compliance.
