Active power factor correction unit ASVG 15 Sinexcel 15kVar with harmonic reduction function in cabinet form (Cabinet) ASVG 15 CABINET

Active Power Factor Correction – Optimization and Savings

The Sinexcel ASVG 15kVar series active power factor correction compensator in cabinet form is an advanced solution designed to improve the quality of electrical energy in installations. The device effectively compensates for both inductive and capacitive reactive power, using a single module, which translates into efficient energy management and loss reduction. The cabinet construction with a base, heaters, ventilation, and protection ensures convenient installation and reliable operation in outdoor conditions.

Functionality and Benefits

The ASVG 15 CABINET is characterized by a fast response to dynamic load changes – reacting to changes in the cos(φ) value in less than 15 ms, individually for each phase. Additionally, the device has a harmonic filtering function (3, 5, 7, 11, 13), which minimizes interference in the network and improves power quality. The built-in multifunctional display allows easy parameterization, monitoring of network parameters, the compensator, and the load. The ability to view current and voltage waveforms, as well as basic electrical power quality parameters, allows for precise analysis and optimization of installation operation.

• Extended transformer life: Reactive power compensation reduces the load on transformers, which translates into their longer life.
• Energy loss reduction: Improving the power factor reduces energy losses in the power grid.
• Voltage stabilization: Reactive power compensation stabilizes the voltage in the network, which improves the operation of electrical devices.
• Light flicker minimization: Harmonic filtering reduces light flicker caused by non-linear loads.
• Fast response: Reacts to load changes in less than 15 ms.
• Complete solution: The cabinet construction includes a base, heaters, ventilation, and protection – ready for outdoor installation.

Application and Construction

The ASVG 15 CABINET compensator finds application in a wide range of industrial and commercial installations where there are large inductive or capacitive loads. It is an ideal solution for facilities requiring high-quality electrical energy and efficient reactive power management. The cabinet construction ensures easy integration with existing electrical infrastructure and protection against atmospheric conditions (IP44 protection class). The device is adapted to work in three-phase systems and can be used both in new installations and in the modernization of existing ones. Additionally, the device is equipped with communication via the MODBUS protocol, which enables integration with electrical power quality monitoring systems.
