SVC Solution in PFC Systems

In conventional power factor correction systems, keeping the power factor within legal limits is achieved by switching-on and switching-off the power capacitors at different power values by power factor controller based on the load status. As instantaneous loads such as elevators, spot-welds and cranes are more frequently used by businesses together with equipment producing capacitive effect such as led lighting and UPS in parallel with technological advancements. In this situation, conventional power factor correction systems may be incapable and businesses face with reactive penalties.

In such applications, SVC is the best solution. Power factor controller with SVC ensures a very sensitive PFC solution by switching-on and switching-off the power capacitors and shunt reactors as needed by means of inductive-load driver based on instantaneous load status and helps businesses avoid facing with reactive penalties in their bills by keeping the power factor within legal limits.
