Automatic Power Factor Correction Panels


AUTOMATIC POWER FACTOR CORRECTION PANELS

 

DESCRIPTION:

APFC or Automatic Power Factor Control Panels are mainly used for the improvement of Power Factor. These benefits include power factor correction, poor power factor penalty utility bill reductions, voltage support, release of system capacity, and reduced system losses. Power Factor can be explained as ratio of active power to apparent power and it is a key factor in measuring electrical consumption. 

APFC Panels becomes indispensable in those industries where electrical installations are meant to supply to large electrical load. A dip in Power Factor can attract operational losses and a penalty from electricity board, responsible for electricity supply. 

APFC Panels can effectively and automatically manage quickly changing and scattered loads along with the retention of high Power Factor. We are renowned manufacturers of APFC Panels symbolized with quality and reliability. These are available in different current ratings to cater to distinct applications. 

Everyone knows that how costly electricity has become in present time. Therefore it becomes utmost important to cut down on electrical consumption for reducing expenditure.
