Small Load Capacitors

The small load capacitor can be used to correct the power factor of a single load without the expense and complexity of a standard automatic unit. Commonly used on cowsheds and remote irrigation pumps. This is the most efficient way to reduce kVA demand out in the field. 

 

Small Load Capacitor Highlights:

  • 1kVAr to 4.5kVAr - 400V @ 50Hz, 3ph
  • Allows for smaller cables within the whole system
  • 1M supply cable to be wired directly into the motor, controlled by motor stop & start. 
  • Fully enclosed system, IP65
  • Metallised Polypropylene 
  • Reduce the kVA demand by 30%
  • Power correction can be located right next to the motor or pump. 

These capacitors are not suitable for power supplies with harmonics in the power system. Non PCB

No discharge resistors in this capacitor.
