FAQs
The 300TPCSR231 is a floor-mounted, three-phase 240V capacitor bank with 12 x 25 kVAR steps. Ensure a stable concrete floor, adequate clearance for service and cooling, and accessible wiring space. If using the optional molded-case circuit breaker, verify a 65 kAIC rating at 480V or 600V and include proper panel integration and grounding per UL 508A guidelines.
With a 720A rating and 300 kVAR capacity, the AutoVAR 600 balances reactive power to raise the PF toward unity, reducing current in feeders and associated I2R losses. This leads to lower utility penalties, improved motor efficiency, and reduced conductor stress, especially for loads with significant inductive components like pumps and compressors.
Yes. The 300 kVAR capability, three-phase 240V operation, and 12 x 25 kVAR steps allow tailored PF correction for variable workloads typical of data centers and HVAC systems. Optional IQ 250 metering enables continuous monitoring to maintain tight voltage and PF targets, supporting uptime requirements and energy management programs.
The unit carries UL Listed and CSA Certified marks, along with UL 508A, CSA Std. C22.2 No. 190, UL 810, and IEEE Std. 18 compliance. These certifications confirm electrical safety, panel compatibility, and reliability for industrial environments, easing procurement for regulated facilities and facilitating integration into control systems.
Maintenance is minimal and primarily involves periodic visual checks and reviewing IQ 250 metering data for anomalies. ROI comes from energy savings from improved PF, reduced peak demand charges, and extended equipment life due to stabilized power quality, delivering a favorable payback in facilities with substantial inductive loads.
