Optimizing Power Factor with Advanced Thyristor Technology
High-performance thyristor-based Automatic Power Factor Correction (APFC) panels designed to enhance energy efficiency, reduce power losses, and ensure compliance with utility standards.
Our Thyristor-Based APFC Panels
Usha Capacitors offers state-of-the-art thyristor-based APFC panels under the brand “USHA Electric,” engineered to dynamically correct power factor in real-time for industrial and commercial applications. These panels utilize thyristor-switched capacitors for rapid and precise switching, minimizing wear and tear compared to traditional contactor-based systems. Designed to handle fluctuating loads and harmonic-rich environments, our panels comply with IEEE-519 standards and are ISO:9001-2015 certified, ensuring reliability and quality.
Key Features
Rapid Switching: Thyristor modules enable near-instantaneous capacitor switching, ideal for dynamic loads.
Harmonic Suppression: Integrated harmonic filters reduce Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) to below 5%, ensuring compliance with IEEE-519.
Power Factor Correction: Maintains an annual average power factor better than 0.99, optimizing energy usage.
Durability: Zero-contact switching extends capacitor life and reduces maintenance costs.
Microcontroller-Based Control: DSP logic ensures precise measurements with Class 1 accuracy.
