<strong>Automatic</strong> <strong>power</strong> <strong>factor</strong> <strong>regulators</strong><strong>Automatic</strong> <strong>power</strong> <strong>factor</strong> <strong>regulators</strong>The use of automatic <strong>power</strong> <strong>factor</strong><strong>regulators</strong> is required for <strong>power</strong> <strong>factor</strong>compensation purposes in installationswith variable loads.CIRCUTOR's “computer” <strong>regulators</strong>can be used to monitor existing loadcurves accurately, whereby the cos φis guaranteed to reach the programmedvalues.The whole range of computer <strong>regulators</strong>is based on CIRCUTOR's FCPsystem (Fast Computerized Program),offering a set of unique performancefeatures:}}Minimisation of the number ofswitching operations, increasing theworking life of the components in thecapacitor bank.}}Increase in the unit's response time,thus achieving greater energy savings.Anti-oscillation system, preventingunwanted capacitor connections anddisconnections. Optimum regulation,thanks to the accurate informationabout the status of network parametersand the anti-oscillation system, guaranteeingthat the installation load curvecan be monitored accurately and theobjective cos φ can be attained.Measurement and compensationCIRCUTOR's vast range of <strong>regulators</strong>has been designed to cover the compensationrequirements in each differenttype of installation.In order to compensate installationswith quick load variations, CIRCU-TOR's fast series computers must beused, since they are capable of compensatingthe reactive consumption inmilliseconds (ms).In unbalanced systems, if you wish toinstall a conventional regulator that willmeasure a single phase, you run therisk of insufficient or excessive compensations.CIRCUTOR has designedthe computer plus series to compensateunbalanced installations. Computerplus is available in the plus-Tversion (contactor switching) and Plus-TF version (thyristor switching), whichare capable of compensating the totalreactive consumption in real time andphase-by-phase.Computer Plus is an innovative productthat offers a wide range of newcharacteristics, three-phase measurements,phase-by-phase compensation,built-in <strong>power</strong> analyzer, test function,protection against harmonics, leakage,control, communications, etc. This catalogueincludes additional informationabout our new product.The following example shows how theunbalance between phases can becalculated in a percentage and how todetermine the need to perform a compensationprocess with a three-phasemeasurement using the Plus system.R.1Installation examples:Power Factor L1: 80 kvarPower Factor L2: 90 kvarPower Factor L3: 110 kvarMean value: L1+L2+L3 / 3 = 93.33 kvar% unbalance L1= (L1-mean value /mean value) x100= 14.28 %% unbalance L2= (L2-mean value /mean value) x100= 3.33 %% unbalance L3= (L3-mean value /mean value) x100= 17.86 %The threshold will be used to choosewhether our capacitor bank will havea three or single-phase measurement,within a 12% unbalance in one of thephases.The previous example shows that L1and L3 are above 12% of the unbalance,so the use of computer Plus isrequired.R1-3
