Thyristor switched Real time PFC - High speed electronically switched (RTPFC Panel)

Real Time Power Factor Correction Panel (RTPFC) offers a complete solution for Automatic Power Factor Correction employing thyristor based switching of capacitors. RTPFC ensures Quick Response Time up to 1 sec. (of a few electrical cycles) enabling Real time Power factor correction in critical industrial conditions. It reduces Transmission Distribution losses, minimises Peak or Maximum Demand (MD) in power consumption and maintains power factor close to unity (1.00).

Salient features

Latest thyristor zero-voltage switching system – cycle-to-cycle correction.
High speed – transient free switching of PFC capacitors within 20 ms.
Designed to achieve precisely unity power factor. Close to unity to get maximum PF rebate and avoid leading PF.
Suitable for rolling mills, welding loads, ports, steel mills, cement and paper, etc wherever load are variable.
Available for balanced as well as un-balanced loads, 1-ph and 3-phase loading.
Power factor correction in four quadrants (Import / Export) .
Enhanced capacitors life due to transient-free, zero inrush current switching.
Maintenance-free because of static switching, no wear and tear of contactors.
Alarm output for low PF, Step failure, over temp., undervoltage, etc.
Auto/Manual Mode facility, fuse/MCCB protection for each step of panel.
Hybrid version also available – contactor + thyristor switching for cost effectiveness.
Enclosures with CRCA sheet steel, seven tank pre-treated for anti-rust and powder coated, modular CNC construction also available.
