Detuned filter architecture is a defining feature of the MV AutoVAR bank, combining a 4.2H detuned filter with a tuned capacitor string. This arrangement reduces triplen and harmonic resonance, protecting transformers and switchgear and delivering cleaner bus voltage. In manufacturing floors or data centers, that improved power quality translates to fewer nuisance trips and smoother operations. High 1794 kVAR reactive power capability enables rapid compensation for sudden load changes. The result is better power factor, reduced utility penalties, and lower energy costs over the course of a project. For facilities with large motor loads or variable processes, the bank provides a scalable solution that supports ongoing efficiency improvements. Footprint and robustness matter in MV environments. At 49 inches long, 91 inches tall, and 180 inches wide, with a 9,250 lb weight, the unit is designed for dedicated MV rooms or bus-tie assemblies. The robust construction simplifies installation alongside existing Eaton or competitor gear. Warranty and certifications address risk reduction. The product carries Eaton's policy of one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first, and is IEEE Std. 18 compliant with CSA certification for Canada. This coverage supports maintenance planning and reduces unexpected downtime. Project compatibility and installation advantages include 4160V, 60Hz operation and standard catalog integration (1794MV3AD41FGMW). The unit's catalog number and UPC ensure easy ordering, replacement, and warranty tracking. Its large kVAR bank is well-suited to retrofits or new MV feeders, offering predictable performance with minimal field rework.

FAQs
Plan for a dedicated MV space capable of handling a 9,250 lb assembly with footprints of approximately 49 in length, 91 in height, and 180 in width. Ensure proper clearance for detuned filter access, ventilation, and connection to a 4160V, 60Hz system. Coordinate with existing switchgear and bus arrangements, and verify catalog number 1794MV3AD41FGMW compatibility.
Expect significant reactive power support to raise power factor, reduce utility penalties, and lower energy costs during variable loads. The 4.2H detuned filter mitigates harmonic resonance, protecting downstream equipment and stabilizing voltage. This combination delivers more reliable operation for large motor drives and critical process equipment in manufacturing and data center environments.
Yes. The Eaton 1794MV3AD41FGMW is designed for 4160V, 60Hz systems and delivers up to 1794 kVAR of reactive power compensation. Its detuned filter supports harmonic mitigation, making it well-suited for facilities with substantial motor loads or harmonics from drives. Ensure proper integration with your MV switchgear and bus configurations for optimal performance.
The unit complies with IEEE Std. 18 and is CSA Certified (Canada). These certifications indicate reliability, electrical safety, and regulatory alignment for medium voltage equipment, which reduces project risk, simplifies procurement, and supports maintenance planning across multi-site deployments.
ROI benefits come from improved power factor, energy savings, and reduced revenue penalties, especially in facilities with fluctuating loads. Maintenance is streamlined by Eaton’s warranty (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) and routine checks of capacitor modules and the detuned filter. Establish a proactive inspection cadence to sustain performance over the asset life.
