  • User-friendly interface with LCD/LED display for easy parameter setting, status indication, and fault diagnostics.
  • Programmable settings for target power factor, switching delays, and alarm thresholds.
• High-Performance Capacitors:
  • Utilizes heavy-duty, self-healing, low-loss, and non-PCB capacitors (e.g., MPP film type) for superior performance and long operational life.
  • Designed for continuous operation in demanding industrial environments.
  • Individual capacitor fuses or circuit breakers for enhanced safety and protection.
• Advanced Switching Technology:
  • Equipped with robust, low-loss contactors for step switching, ensuring reliable and precise connection/disconnection of capacitor banks.
  • (Optional: Thyristor-switched panels available for very fast switching applications, critical for dynamic and highly fluctuating loads).
• Comprehensive Protection:
  • Integrated protection against overcurrent, overvoltage, undervoltage, short-circuit, and capacitor overloading.
  • Harmonic filtering options available for systems with significant harmonic distortions (Active or Passive Harmonic Filters).
• Robust & Modular Enclosure:
  • Industrial-grade, dust-proof, and ventilated steel enclosure (e.g., IP42, IP54, IP55 rated) for optimal component protection and heat dissipation.
  • Modular design allows for easy expansion, maintenance, and replacement of individual components.
  • Ample space for wiring, ensuring safe and compliant installation.
• Integrated Monitoring & Communication:
  • Displays critical power parameters like current, voltage, active power, reactive power, apparent power, frequency, and current power factor.
  • (Optional: RS485 / Modbus communication port for SCADA integration and remote monitoring).
• Safety & Compliance:
  • Designed and manufactured in accordance with international standards (e.g., IEC 61921, IS 13585).
  • High-quality internal wiring and busbar systems ensure maximum safety and minimal losses.
