Real-time (fast) single- and three-phase PFC
NOVAR 1312 and NOVAR 1312-3 power factor
controllers are fully automatic controllers for
dynamic compensation systems. It can control
fast thyristor switched capacitor banks for
real-time response to changes of power factor.
Its processor and algorithm allows up to 25
control interventions in one second. Together
with KATKA thyristor switching modules it
provides perfect control of fast PFC cabinet.
The controller can also be used in
combined systems where both KATKA thyristor
switching modules and classical
electromechanical contactors are used together.
Optional RS-485 communication port allows to
monitor all measurement values and set
instrument parameters using a remote PC.
NOVAR 1312-3 is a
special option with 3 independent current
inputs. It measures sum of all three current
signals instead of just one. Therefore, it
allows compensation according to a more relevant
three-phase power factor under unbalanced
conditions. For a full-featured three-phase
power factor controller see the NOVAR 2700 and
other NOVAR 2000 products.
