Thyristor Modules for Dynamic PFC

Product Details

Conventional systems for power factor correction are used to optimize the power factor and reduce the level of harmonics in the grid. The usage of new technologies in modern industry has negative impacts on electric power quality of the main supply networks, e.g. frequent high load fluctuations and harmonic oscillation. Excessive currents, increased losses and flickering will not only influence the supply capacity but will  also have a significant impact on the operation of sensitive electronic  devices. The solution for this are dynamic power factor correction systems. With the thyristor module series TSM-LC and TSM-HV, we provide the main component – “the electronic switch” – for dynamic power factor correction. The TSM module series offers fast electronically controlled, self-observing thyristor switches for capacitive loads up to 200 kvar, that are capable to switch PFC capacitors within a few milliseconds nearly without a limitation to the number of switchings during thecapacitor lifetime.
