FAQs
Installation typically begins with confirming a suitable wall-mounted location and adequate clearance for the 36x60x13.67 inch enclosure. Feed with a 240V three-phase supply and install the molded case circuit breaker per Eaton’s wiring diagram. Ensure proper grounding, clearance for heat dissipation, and adherence to local code. Commission the AutoVAR controller after mechanical and electrical verification to achieve optimal PF improvement.
Key specs include a 50 kVAR reactive-power rating, 240V line voltage, 120A current rating, three-phase configuration, and a 60 Hz frequency. The unit uses a molded case circuit breaker for protection and is designed for wall-mounted LV installations. These specs support reliable PF correction for motor loads, compressors, and HVAC equipment in industrial settings.
Yes. With 50 kVAR at 240V in a three-phase configuration, this bank efficiently corrects power factor for motor drives, compressors, and HVAC systems commonly found in manufacturing and processing facilities. Its wall-mount design minimizes footprint, while AutoVAR control maintains consistent PF under varying load conditions, reducing energy waste and improving system stability.
The unit carries CSA C22.2 No. 190, UL 508A, UL 810, and IEEE Std. 18 certifications. These assurances cover electrical safety, component compatibility with industrial equipment, and reliability in control environments. For regulated industries and multi-site deployments, these certifications simplify procurement, audits, and compliance with global standards.
ROI arises from reduced demand charges and energy costs due to improved PF, along with extended equipment life from reduced voltage stress. The unit includes a one-year warranty from installation and a five-year warranty on capacitor cells, supporting long-term budget planning. Routine inspections and periodic capacitor cell checks are recommended to sustain performance and reliability.
