The microcontroller-controlled multicomp F144-xxx-3 reactive power controller uses A/D converter inputs to record all grid data relevant to the control of small systems
The reactive power controller is the measuring and control unit of reactive power compensation systems. Precise switching of inductive or capacitive reactive current relieves unnecessarily loaded electrical supply systems and reduces reactive consumption costs.
After calculating the compensation power required to achieve the desired target cos φ, the available capacitor stages are automatically switched on or off with just a few switching operations. The multicomp 144-xxx-3 switches capacitors of the same power in a circuit. Programming is menu-guided via two buttons. System-specific values are stored in a non-volatile memory. Each level can be switched individually using the built-in manual-0-automatic function.
The reactive power controller is also characterized by its functionality in 4-quadrant operation (generator operation), i.e. even when feeding back into the utility grid, missing compensation power is easily detected and compensated. This means that companies’ own generation systems, e.g. biogas or PV systems, can also be easily integrated.
Thanks to the high-quality production and in-house development at our factory in Schwabach, KBR reactive power controllers are characterized by their quality and durability.
