FAQs
The 200MCSR431M is designed for wall mounting as a compact capacitor bank. Its dimensions (14 in depth, 36 in width, 60 in height) and weight (330 lb) facilitate straightforward retrofit into existing control panels or equipment bays. It integrates with standard 480V three-phase systems and aligns with Eaton LV AutoVAR family components, simplifying commissioning and interconnection with minimized panel modifications.
This unit provides a 200 kvar reactive power compensation in a 480V three-phase configuration. AutoVAR continuously monitors system voltage and current to automatically adjust reactive power, maintaining power factor and reducing voltage fluctuations without manual tap changes. This dynamic operation lowers energy waste, reduces utility charges, and enhances motor performance on variable loads.
Yes. With 200 kvar of compensation at 480V, it supports mid-size facilities with mixed motor, pump, and lighting loads. It stabilizes voltage during peak demand, improves efficiency for motor drives, and mitigates PF penalties. Its modular design and compatibility with the Eaton LV AutoVAR line make it a practical upgrade for facilities aiming to improve power quality without extensive reconfiguration.
The unit meets UL 508A for industrial control panels, CSA Std. C22.2 No. 190 for manufacturing safety, UL 810 for electrical equipment, and IEEE Std. 18. These certifications support safe operation, ease of code compliance, and compatibility with common industrial protection schemes.
Expected ROI comes from reduced reactive power charges and improved equipment efficiency, with payback varying by facility load profile. Maintenance is typically minimal, focusing on routine inspection of connections, enclosure integrity, and thermal performance. The unit’s robust construction and UL-listed components help minimize unexpected downtime, while automatic operation reduces the need for ongoing PF adjustments by staff.
