AUTOMATIC POWER FACTOR CORRECTION PANEL (APFC PANEL)
- APFC PANEL WITH CAPACITOR BANKS & THYRISTOR BASED HARMONIC FILTER.
- APFC PANEL WITH CAPACITOR BANKS.
Architecture
APFC is thyristor switched detuned type Automatic Power Factor Correction Panel designed to cater the facilities equipped with fast changing loads such as Air Compressors, Power Presses, Injection Moulding Machines, Variable Frequency Drives, Motor driven Loads, Lifts etc . The System is based on real time switching that helps user to achieve near unity power factor.
SOFT SWITCHING
Static Switching eliminates the high inrush currents and voltage sags. The soft switching enhances the life of the power capacitors upto 500% viz a conventional APFC Panels without thyristor switching.
DG COMPATIBLE
The POWERCOM SYSTEMS-PowerMax is designed to run on DG Sets.
SMART CAPACITOR SWITCHING
The static switching Algorithm enables to use the minimum Capacitors to achieve maximum power factor. The evenly distributed usage of the capacitor banks prevents uneven aging of the capacitors, hence uniform aging.
HARMONICS FILTERING
The Detuned Capacitor bank is equipped with additional harmonics filter reactors to mitigate harmonics.
WITH SCADA READY POWER MANAGER
The green-panel is equipped with a state of the art Power-Manager for optimal utilization through real time logging of measurement & indications and protections. The power Manager logs real- time values of Volts, Ampere, kilo Volt Amperes, KVAr, Active Power, Reactive Power, Apparent Power, Total Power, Cos φ per phase and linear. Metering display in kilo Watt Hour, kilo Volt Am- pere hour, kVAr, Phase Voltages, Line Voltages, Negative Sequence Current, Zero Sequence Cur- rents. Graphical display of total power, Fault indi- cation with value, time and frequency.
SCADA COMMUNICATION
The Power manager is controlled through the bun- dled monitoring and controlling software. The power manager is Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) ready with available inter- faces like RS 232, RS 485 Modbus RTU and TCP IP. The data logging, Graphical analysis and report generation is done at the remote end through the bundled software.
PASSWORD PROTECTION
