FAQs
This unit is designed for wall-mounted installation in a 480V three-phase system and comes in a 3R enclosure. Plan for appropriate clearances around the 14 in depth, 60 in height, and 36 in width footprint, plus service access for periodic checks. Ensure compatible panel wiring, proper insulation coordination, and adherence to UL 508A electrical installation guidelines to minimize commissioning time and maximize safety.
The capacitor bank operates at 480 V three-phase, with a switched capacitor rating of 200 kvar. It is configured as an AutoVAR bank designed to provide reactive power support, with a wall-mounted 3R enclosure and a weight of approximately 340 lb. Dimensions are 14 in depth, 60 in height, and 36 in width, making it suitable for mid‑to‑large industrial applications.
The 200MCSR431MW carries UL 508A and UL 810 certifications, is CSA Std. C22.2 No. 190 compliant, and aligns with IEEE Std. 18 for capacitor banks. These certifications support safe operation, reliability in commercial and industrial environments, and regulatory compliance in many regions.
AutoVAR provides automated reactive power compensation, improving power factor and reducing utility penalties. By lessening transformer loading and stabilizing voltage, facilities often experience lower energy costs and deferred capital expenditures on larger electrical infrastructure, delivering a faster return on investment when deployed across applicable feeders.
As a switched capacitor bank, plan routine inspections of enclosure integrity, wiring connections, and terminal torque. Follow Eaton’s recommended maintenance intervals from the specification sheet, and verify certifications remain in place after any modifications. Regular performance checks help ensure sustained efficiency gains and reliable operation within your power quality strategy.
