ReactiVar Standard Automatic Power Factor Capacitor Banks

Reactive power compensation for variable load.

If your plant loading is constantly changing, resulting in the need for varying amounts of reactive power, a centralized power factor correction method is a more effective and economical method to bring the power factor up to the target. The ReactiVar® AV4000 and AV5000 standard automatic power factor correction banks are designed for the electrical distribution network with little or no harmonic contents -- TDD (Total Demand Distortion in current) < 5% and THD(V) (Total Harmonic Distortion in voltage) < 3%.

An advanced microprocessor-based reactive power controller measures plant power factor via a single remote current transformer (included), and switches capacitor modules in and out of service to maintain a user-selected target power factor.
