AUTOMATIC STATIC POWER FACTOR CORRECTION

 

Static P.F.C. equipment differs from the standard equipment for the following reasons:

bullet

The reactive power regulator has a switching time of the banks extremely quicker than the standard regulator

bullet

The device for switching the capacitors banks is electronic, controlled by thyristors, with the capability of switching the capacitors at zero crossing.

Static switching by thyristors has the following advantages:

bullet

Maximum speed in switching the capacitors banks (the total power is switched in less than a second)

bullet

No current peak on the capacitors at the time of switching of the banks

bullet

No voltage peak on the capacitors at the time of switching off the banks

bullet

Elimination of  deterioration of the contacts in the standard contactors

bullet

Noise reduced to a minimum

bullet

Reduced maintenance

bullet

Prolonged capacitor life.

APPLICATION FIELD

The automatic static Power Factor Correction is particularly suitable for variable quick loads, such as:

bullet

Injection presses

bullet

Elevators

bullet

High torque motors

bullet

Motors affected by voltage losses

bullet

Car industry

bullet

 Wind turbines for the production of electric energy

bullet

Diesel generators
