Eaton 500TPHSR631 LV AutoVAR 600 capacitor bank - UL508A
Part Number: 500TPHSR631
Quick Summary
The Eaton LV AutoVAR 600 capacitor bank provides reactive power compensation for 3-phase 600 V industrial feeders. Facilities often struggle with poor power factor, voltage fluctuations, and rising demand charges that erode profitability. It carries UL 508A, UL 810, CSA C22.2 No. 190, and IEEE 18 certifications to support safety, compliance, and dependable operation. With a rugged floor-mount NEMA 1 steel enclosure and 600 V three-phase capability, it delivers measurable business value by improving power quality and reducing utility costs. Designed for heavy-duty industrial use, the unit integrates with existing motor drives and feeders, and Eaton provides data on efficiency gains and maintenance planning. This combination supports ongoing reliability and lower lifecycle costs.

FAQs
The unit is designed for 600 V three-phase systems, supporting 60 Hz operation and a 480 A current rating. It mounts on the floor in a NEMA 1 enclosure and integrates with standard power distribution layouts. For retrofits, ensure physical clearance for the 80 inch height and 41.3 inch width, plus alignment with existing CT circuits for proper control. This compatibility supports straightforward installation in typical industrial facilities.
Key specs include a 500 kVA kVAR rating, 480 A amperage rating, 60 Hz frequency, 600 V voltage rating, three-phase configuration, and a floor-mounted NEMA 1 enclosure made of steel. The assembly uses heavy-duty capacitor cells and requires a separate current transformer (CT) for monitoring. This combination enables scalable, precise power factor correction aligned with motor loads and process demands.
The unit carries UL 508A for industrial control panels, UL 810 for electrical equipment, CSA Std. C22.2 No. 190, and IEEE 18. These certifications demonstrate electrical safety, reliability, and compatibility with industry standards, which simplifies procurement for regulated environments and reduces risk during audits or inspections.
Expect improved power factor, reduced reactive power demand, and lower utility charges due to optimized voltage and current, especially with large motor loads. The NEMA 1 enclosure and floor mounting offer robust protection in harsh environments, while the 10 x 50 kVAR stepping enables staged compensation to match changing load profiles and minimize maintenance costs over time.
Plan for adequate floor space and vertical clearance to accommodate the 80 inch height and 41.3 inch width, plus the 1050 lb weight. Ensure proper mounting surface, access to a separate CT for control, and ventilation appropriate to a steel, enclosed cabinet. Coordinate with your electrical room layout to accommodate wiring, protection devices, and future scalability.
