A harmonic filter is a device that mitigates harmonics to tolerable levels. Heavy electric machines generate huge non-linear loads, which create many harmonics in the electrical power system. Harmonics are periodic, sinusoidal, and integer multiples of the fundamental frequency (50Hz or 60Hz), current, or voltage components present in the non-sinusoidal waveform. Non-linear loads are the root cause of harmonic generation.
Heavy industrial applications, such as arc furnaces, large variable frequency drives (VFDs), and heavy rectifiers for electrolytic refining, generate a lot of harmonics due to significant non-linear loads. A harmonic filter is the most suitable component that safeguards electronics and improves the power quality factor. Nowadays, in addition to industrial applications, various commercial applications, such as data and IT centers, hospitals, and commercial complexes, are also creating a huge concern about mitigating harmonic distortions.

By Filter Type
"The passive harmonic filters segment accounted for the largest market share."
The market is segmented into passive harmonic filters and active harmonic filters. The passive harmonic filter is likely to remain the most dominant filter type during the forecast period. Passive filters are most suitable for constant loads, as they eliminate or bypass lower-order fixed harmonics of current or voltage by tuning them at the resonance frequency.
However, the active harmonic filter is likely to be the fastest-growing filter type segment of the market, owing to its superior harmonic elimination factor as it doesn’t get easily overloaded even if it reaches its limit.
By Voltage Level Type
"The low-voltage segment accounted for the largest market share."
The harmonic filters market is segmented into low-voltage, medium-voltage, and high-voltage harmonic filters. Low-voltage harmonic filter is projected to remain the largest segment of the market during the forecast period.
Whereas, the medium-voltage harmonic filter, another considerable segment, is likely to grow at an impressive rate in the market during the same period.
By Type of Phase
"The three-phase harmonic filters segment accounted for the largest market share."
The market is segmented into single-phase harmonic filters and three-phase harmonic filters. Three-phase harmonic filter is projected to maintain its dominance in the market over the next five years. The segment is also likely to grow at an impressive rate in the market during the same period, owing to its diversified usage in high-end industrial applications, such as manufacturing and metal processing, as well as in commercial applications, such as data and IT centers, malls, and airports.
By End-User Type
"The manufacturing segment accounted for the largest market share."
The market is classified as manufacturing, metal processing, paper & pulp, data & IT centers, oil & gas, and others. The manufacturing segment is likely to remain the most dominant end-user type in the market during the forecast period. The manufacturing segment majorly includes cement, pharmaceutical, power plants, steel, foundries, and chemical industries.
The industrial sector is the major generator of variable speed drives (VSDs) to which manufacturing is a big contributor. VSDs inject harmonics and create a power-quality problem in industrial power-supply distribution.
Regional Insights
"North America accounted for the largest market share."
North America is projected to remain the largest harmonic filter market during the forecast period. The USA is the growth engine of the North American market, driven by the presence of major players in harmonic filters as well as end-use industries. Asia-Pacific is likely to be the fastest-growing harmonic filter market during the forecast period, driven by China, India, and Japan.
