- Challenge: A manufacturer’s utility bills significantly increased when the local utility switched to kVAR billing.
- Solution: Based on our analysis, we helped the customer implement a 500kVar detuned PowerVar automatic capacitor and harmonic filter bank with 50kVar step resolution to maintain an average power factor of 0.9957.
- Impact: ROI achieved in less than nine months with a $4K a month reduced utility spend.
Welding
- Challenge: A welding company’s high harmonics and dynamic loads caused frequent capacitor bank failure and poor power factor.
- Solution: Installed 900kVar thyristor switched detuned PowerVar. Each stage switched over 10,000 times a day.
- Impact: Harmonics decreased by nearly 5%.
