The volume of electricity consumed by large and even medium-sized enterprises using a wide variety of electrical equipment can hardly be called a constant value if we consider it in a daily format:
- Starting and Reaching Maximum Power - Peak Loads.
- Working as planned - working consumption.
- Maintenance, downtime or retooling - the consumption is reduced to a minimum.
The reactive energy arising from such operation of electrical equipment is not consumed for its intended purpose (to create negative magnetic fields and generate heat), but with the help of a capacitor unit (examples of equipment are presented on the manufacturer's website megavarm.ru of the MEGAVAR company) this problem is solved quite successfully.
The main advantages of using a capacitor unit
The principle of operation of a classic capacitor is quite simple and straightforward. It is capable of condensing in itself and retaining for a long time a certain amount of electrical energy with specified parameters (current strength, voltage value). It is the capacitors that are the main component of the capacitor unit, connected to the network (meaning the input) of the enterprise.
Installation of this type of electrical equipment is carried out after appropriate calculations of the magnitude of the displayed reactive power. It will be compensated (concentrated in capacitors) and delivered to the enterprise network in the so-called "sparing" format. Economic effect of implementation:
- Reduction of electricity consumption by up to 30% depending on the type of production activity.
- Extension of the service life of both the electrical network itself and the equipment connected to it.
You can get more detailed information about the types and technical parameters of capacitor units, as well as order a projection preliminary calculation of the available reactive power using the official website of the MEGAVAR company. The models presented in the catalog meet the established criteria for quality and safety. They are installed and launched in a turnkey format by highly qualified employees of the enterprise.
