FRAKO capacitor type Standard LKT 20-400-DP P3110504

FRAKO Capacitors – reliable reactive power in your installation

The FRAKO Standard LKT 20-400-DP capacitor is an element designed to improve the power factor in electrical installations. This is crucial for efficient energy use, reducing losses and lowering operating costs. FRAKO capacitors from the Standard series are characterized by a solid construction and high reliability, making them an ideal solution for both professional installers and end users.

Characteristics and application

The LKT 20-400-DP capacitor is used in reactive power compensation systems in 400V networks. Its main task is to improve the power factor (cos φ), which translates into reduced network load, reduced energy losses and improved voltage stability. This allows for more efficient use of active power and avoids penalties for reactive power consumption charged by energy suppliers.

• Applications:
  • Reactive power compensation in industrial plants
  • Improving the power factor in commercial and public buildings
  • Installations with induction motors with high power consumption
  • Lighting systems with inductive load
• Construction: Capacitor made in dry technology, which ensures high resistance to environmental conditions and long life.
• Mounting: Designed for mounting in control cabinets or enclosures dedicated to capacitors.

Parameters and benefits

The FRAKO LKT 20-400-DP capacitor offers the following parameters:

• Rated power (400V): 20 kvar (kilovolt-amperes reactive) – provides effective reactive power compensation in installations with medium power consumption.
• Rated voltage: 400V – adapted to standard power grids.
• Frequency: 50/60 Hz – possibility of use in networks with different frequencies.
• Rated current (400V): 28.9A / 34.6A (at 50Hz / 60Hz) - allows for proper selection of installation protection.

By choosing the FRAKO LKT 20-400-DP capacitor, you gain:

• Energy savings: Improving the power factor reduces energy losses in the network, which translates into lower electricity bills.
• Increased network capacity: Reactive power compensation releases active power, which can be used to power additional loads.
• Improved voltage stability: Reducing the network load affects voltage stabilization, which protects sensitive electronic devices from damage.
• Long-term operation: FRAKO capacitors are characterized by high quality workmanship and reliability, which guarantees a long service life without failures.
