Western European low voltage capacitor installation company

What type of capacitors are made in Italy?

Manufacturing of single-phase and three-phase capacitors and capacitor banks completely Italian A completely Italian manufacture of Low and Medium Voltage capacitors, both three-phase and single-phase, complete capacitor banks both housed and on a frame, Low Voltage and Medium Voltage Reactors.

Which capacitors should be used in a 400 volt distribution network?

We recommend using capacitors with higher nominal voltage than the nominal voltage of the distribution network. In a 400 V distribution network, we recommend capacitors with a nominal voltage of 440 V and capacitors with a nominal voltage of 480 V for detuned power factor correction with reactors.

What causes a low voltage capacitor?

This effect may be caused by the usage of non-linear devices (generation of higher harmonics), low short-circuit power of voltage sources (voltage fluctuation), etc. We recommend using capacitors with higher nominal voltage than the nominal voltage of the distribution network.

What is a capacitor bank?

Capacitor banks generate the reactive power that motors and other inductive loads consume. Improve the lifespan of your installation and equipment by reducing load and thermal stress Relay controlled capacitor banks are the most common option for reducing reactive power. These capacitor banks are suitable for a large variety of loads.

Which capacitor banks are best for reducing reactive power?

Relay controlled capacitor banks are the most common option for reducing reactive power. These capacitor banks are suitable for a large variety of loads. Reaction time is slow and there is always under or over compensation. They are, however, usually the most cost-effective solution for small and medium-sized installations.

How does a capacitor bank reduce a high frequency current?

To reduce this effect, the capacitor bank is detuned. Small coils are added to reduce the high frequency currents. Coils have a higher impedance with rising frequency.
