Power factor correction

Power quality and supply reliability are extremely important in the modern world of business. Highly sensitive equipment and working processes are heavily dependant upon precisely defined power quality.

On the other hand, the number of electrical and electronic consumers with system perturbations is increasing which means that the networks are becoming more polluted. Janitza electronics® offers systems for the improvement of power quality and the necessary expertise for implementation. You, therefore, improve your power quality, save electricity, stabilise your processes, avoid production interruptions and reduce maintenance costs.

What is reactive power and What can be done to combat reactive power?

Here you can find additional information on the reactive power and how Janitza products can help you to improve the power quality, to save energy and to stabilize your processes.

Prophi Power factor controller
Power factor controller for use in conventional and dynamic (fast switching) PFC systems, hybrid switching (conventional and dynamic PFC are mixed), Protocols: Profibus DP V0 + Modbus (RTU) slave.

PFC-Power capacitors
Can-type capacitor in aluminium housing, square capacitor in steel housing, de-tuned power capacitors in steel cabinet.

Power factor corrction (without reactors)
For power factor correction (PFC) in low voltage networks with a small amount of non-linear consumers, i.e. low harmonic distortion.

Dynamic (fast switching) power factor correction
Switching times of approx 20-30 milliseconds can be achieved with dynamic reactive power compensation systems. Reactive power compensation can be achieved in real time together with the highly dynamic power factor controller Prophi®-T.
