Power Factor Controller PFW03 Series

The PFW03 is an automation equipment for the permanent monitoring of the reactive power of the installation and the control of the power factor.

Description

Description

The PFW is an automation device for permanently monitoring the reactive power of the installation and controlling the power factor. This control in the PFW is done by connecting and disconnecting steps of capacitors. Therefore, the Automatic Power Factor Controller enables the power distribution system to operate at maximum efficiency by reducing the reactive power. In addition, it informs electrical parameters such as: current, voltage, power, energy, demands and maximum and minimum values.

Main Characteristics

Main Characteristics
