FAQs
Installation should begin with de-energizing the distribution network and verifying lockout/tagout procedures. Mount the unit within a suitable enclosure or switchgear bay, connect the three-phase inputs to the bus, and secure the three fuses as per the Eaton specification sheet. Verify clearances, torque settings, and grounding, then perform insulation resistance tests and a phased energization sequence to minimize inrush effects.
Key specs include a three-phase configuration rated for 850 kVAR at 4,800 V, fixed with three fuses, and CSA/IEEE Std. 18 compliance. The unit weighs 331 lb and measures 20.42 in by 26.68 in by 41.94 in, with a footprint designed for retrofit into standard industrial spaces. These parameters support reliable power factor correction and voltage regulation in mid‑voltage networks.
Yes. The 850483MVF3C provides substantial reactive power support to improve power factor for motor drives and large feeders, reducing voltage drop and demand charges. Its fixed three-fuse design enhances protection, while its three-phase 4.8 kV rating matches common mid‑voltage distributions found in manufacturing facilities, enabling stable operation and extended motor life.
Key certifications are CSA Certification (Canada Only) and IEEE Std. 18 compliance. CSA confirms safety and compatibility with Canadian electrical standards, while IEEE Std. 18 alignment assures industry-standard performance for capacitor banks. These credentials simplify regulatory reviews and supplier qualification in regulated environments.
Expect improved energy efficiency from power factor correction, which lowers utility penalties and can shorten payback periods. Maintenance involves periodic inspection of fuses and connections, with straightforward replacement procedures supported by Eaton’s specification documentation. The robust fixed design also reduces fail‑points, contributing to longer intervals between service outages in continuous production environments.
