Active power factor correction unit ASVG 50 Sinexcel 50kVar with harmonic reduction function in cabinet form (Cabinet) ASVG 50 CABINET

Energy Quality Optimization with Sinexcel ASVG 50 CABINET

The Sinexcel ASVG 50kVar series active power factor correction (APFC) device in a cabinet enclosure is an advanced solution designed to improve energy efficiency and power quality. The device effectively compensates for both inductive and capacitive reactive power, as well as reduces harmonics, resulting in more stable device operation and lower energy costs. The cabinet design with a foundation, heaters, and ventilation makes it a ready-to-install solution for outdoor installations.

Application and benefits

The ASVG 50 CABINET compensator finds application in a wide range of industrial, commercial, and infrastructure facilities. Thanks to its fast response to load changes (less than 15 ms) and the ability to filter harmonics (3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13), it provides optimal operating conditions for sensitive electronic devices. This translates into concrete benefits:

• Extended device life: Stable voltage and the absence of harmonics reduce the load on transformers and other electrical installation components.
• Reduced energy losses: Reactive power compensation minimizes losses in the power grid, leading to financial savings.
• Improved power quality: Elimination of harmonic disturbances affects the stable operation of devices and minimizes the risk of failure.
• Protection against light flicker: Reducing voltage fluctuations provides comfortable working conditions and improves lighting quality.
• Ready for outdoor installation: The cabinet design with protections (IP44) allows installation of the device in various environmental conditions.

Construction and functionality

ASVG 50 CABINET is a complete solution that includes everything necessary for proper operation: a foundation ensuring stability, heaters to prevent condensation, and a ventilation system to maintain optimal operating temperature. The built-in display allows easy parameterization of the device and monitoring of key parameters of the power grid – voltage, current, active and reactive power, and harmonics. The device is adapted for mounting both on the wall and in a rack cabinet (depending on the configuration). Communication is via RS485 and Ethernet (RJ45) ports, enabling integration with building monitoring and control systems.

Additionally, it is worth mentioning the fast response time of the device – less than 15 ms – which allows for effective compensation of dynamically changing loads. This is particularly important in applications requiring precise power control, such as electric motor drives or LED lighting systems.
