APFC Control Panels

APFC (Automatic Power Factor Control Panels)

Advantages

• Avoid high current consumption losses

• Payback period is 8 to 10 months

• Energy saving up to 5%

• Low power factor penalty can be avoided

• Extended life for switch gears, transformer and cables

• Avoid manual disruptions

Controller: Microprocessor based automatic controller with power factor display

Key Features

• All major components are of standard make like Siemens, Epcos, L&T and Schneider

• All components are carefully integrated for reliable performance and longer life

• Uses small correction steps to maintain accurate setting

• Capacitor duty contactors and MCB/MCCB are used to switch ON capacitors to minimize switching surges

• Auto / Manual facility with cooling system

• In-built time delay for switching ON capacitor bank to avoid impulse operation

• All capacitor feeders have Auto / Manual mode with fuse protection and isolation

• Very low watt losses
