POWER FACTOR CONTROLLER

The microcontroller-controlled multicomp F144-3 records all network data relevant to the control of small systems via A/D transformer inputs. After calculating the required compensation power to achieve the desired target cos φ, the available capacitor stages are automatically switched on or off with a few switching operations. Programming is menu-assisted and is performed with two buttons. System-specific values are stored in a non-volatile memory. Each stage can be switched individually via the built-in manual-0-automatic function.

​

• Detecting and compensating for the missing compensation power in case of recovery into the energy provider network

• Rapid compensation with few switching operation

• Display with two-line LC display, stage status an recovery

• Manual-0-automatic switch separately programmable for each stage

• Integrated temperature measurement

POWER CAPACITORS

Power capacitors for reactive current compensation in single-phase and 3-phase versions, developed for the highest requirements. Apart from a long operating life and high current and voltageload capacity, safety in case of overload (all-pole overpressure disconnector) is a crucial advantage of the compact dry technology components. Other features are good heat dissipation, low self-heating as well as reliable performance at high ambient temperatures.

​

• Power from 2.8 to 37 kvar

• Capacitor rated voltage of 280, 415, 440, 480, 525, 690 or 800 V

• High level of safety through dry technology and 3-phase internal overpressure disconnector

• Including compact discharge resistor

• Long operating life

• Made in Gemany

DETUNE FILTER

To prevent resonance phenomena caused by harmonic content in the power supply system, filter circuit reactors are required to set up detuned compensation systems. Here, high linearities guarantee the necessary functional stability even in the overload range.

​

• Power from 2.5 to 75 kvar

• High linearity, low power dissipation

• Overload protection through temperature switch

• Low-noise through impregnation

• Long working life

• Improvement of impedance behavior

CONTACTOR

Benedict is the industry leader in capacitor switching contactors. Pre-make contacts and resistors reduce current inrush during switching, thus providing less stress for both the contactor and the capacitor. They are suitable for both reactive and non-reactive capacitor banks, and do not create any performance losses as the resistors are switched out of the circuit during operation.

CAPACITOR BANK

In the automatically controlled reactive current compensation devices multicab-R, only type-tested quality components are used. The system cabinets contain a temperature-controlled ventilation system which protects the devices from damage through overheating. Thanks to convenient rack-mounted technology, system expansions can be undertaken quickly and simply. All system modules can be used flexibly in any cabinet system.
