Automatic Power Factor Correction (APFC) Panel

Optimize Your Power, Slash Energy Costs & Enhance System Efficiency

💡 Product Overview

An Automatic Power Factor Correction (APFC) Panel is an intelligent, self-contained electrical system designed to monitor and automatically correct the power factor of your electrical installation. By precisely injecting reactive power using capacitor banks, it ensures your facility operates at optimal efficiency, leading to significant cost savings, reduced electrical losses, and improved overall grid stability.

Ideal for industrial, commercial, and large residential applications, our APFC panels are engineered for reliability, durability, and superior performance, safeguarding your equipment and contributing to a greener energy footprint.

✨ Key Features

• Intelligent Microprocessor-Based Controller:
  • Real-time monitoring of power factor, voltage, current, harmonics, and other electrical parameters.
  • Automatic sensing and precise switching of capacitor steps to maintain target power factor.
  • Advanced algorithms for quick and accurate correction.
  • User-friendly interface (LCD/LED display) for easy configuration and data logging.
• High-Quality Capacitors:
  • Heavy-duty, self-healing, low-loss, metalized polypropylene capacitors.
  • Designed for long operational life and high temperature tolerance.
  • Available in standard and detuned configurations for harmonic rich environments.

  • Ventilation provisions (louvers, cooling fans for higher ratings) to ensure optimal operating temperature.
• Advanced Protection Systems:
  • HRC Fuses / MCCBs: For short-circuit and overcurrent protection of capacitor banks.
  • Overvoltage & Undervoltage Protection: Safeguards connected equipment.
  • Over-temperature Protection: Prevents damage from overheating.
  • Harmonic Overload Protection (with detuned panels): Shields capacitors from excessive harmonic currents.
• Heavy-Duty Switching Devices:
  • Capacitor Duty Contactors: Specifically designed for switching reactive loads, ensuring longevity and reliable operation.
  • Thyristor Switches (Optional for Dynamic APFC): For ultra-fast power factor correction in highly fluctuating load conditions.
• Built-in Safety Features:
  • Door interlocking, earthing provisions, and clear labeling for safe operation and maintenance.
• Metering & Communication (Optional):
  • Integrated digital multifunction meters for comprehensive data acquisition.
  • RS485 communication port for SCADA or BMS integration.

🎯 Benefits of Our APFC Panel

• ⬇️ Reduce Energy Bills: Significantly lower your electricity consumption by reducing reactive power draw and avoiding utility penalties for poor power factor.
• ⬆️ Improve System Efficiency: Less current is drawn for the same amount of useful power, leading to reduced losses in cables, transformers, and switchgear.
• 🚫 Avoid Utility Penalties: Comply with power factor regulations set by electricity providers and eliminate surcharges.
• ⬆️ Extend Equipment Lifespan: Less current means reduced thermal stress on electrical components (transformers, motors, cables), prolonging their operational life.
• ⬆️ Increase Available Power: Free up electrical system capacity, allowing for expansion or connection of additional loads without costly infrastructure upgrades.
• ⬆️ Stabilize Voltage: Improves voltage regulation at the load end, providing a more stable and reliable power supply.
• 🌍 Contribute to Sustainability: By optimizing energy usage, you reduce your carbon footprint and support environmental conservation efforts.
