Electronic contactors are recommended, as well as static contactors, for those installations where there are rapid and important load fluctuations.
RTR incorporates this new modular battery with electric contactors combined with detuned filters into its range of products, the use of which has the following advantages:
• The use of these contactors allows the capacitors to be connected quickly and without starting transients since the connection occurs when the voltage crosses zero.
• As in the case of the connection, the disconnection is carried out without transients as it occurs in the downward passage through zero of the current.
• The two previous conditions make the times between successive connections and disconnections very short (<1s).
• An immediate response to the demand for compensation is achieved, which is essential in some installations where the load changes rapidly.
• Results in less wear on capacitors and other battery components. This is a direct consequence of removing the transients and of the total absence of moving mechanical parts. The useful life of the equipment as a whole is significantly increased compared to conventional equipment.
• Lower maintenance cost.
• When combined with harmonic rejection filters, we achieve reactive energy compensation in those industrial installations with elements that they generate harmonic distortions in the network, THD/U greater than 3% and THD/I greater than 30%.
As a result of all these advantages, RTR manufactures a new model of high-quality modular capacitor bank that facilitates maintenance by be manufactured by means of steps in “plug and play” racks and allows an easy expansion of the same after its acquisition.
