REACTIVE POWER MANAGER RELAY TYPE RPM-8

Reactive power manager Relay (Model RPM-8) is designed for automatic control of capacitor banks in 3 phase 4 wire LT distribution systems. The relay maintains the system power factor at a set value, under fluctuating load conditions, by connecting or disconnecting capacitor banks to the 415V bus. The relay employs state of the art micro controller design for measurement of reactive power compensation required, system power factor, voltage and current. A specially formulated optimization program for capacitor bank switching ensures accurate power factor control at the set point and hunt free operation.

Salient Features: Micro controller based design Effective PF control Auto / Manual operation Suitable for Non-uniform Banks Automatic C/K selection Optimisation of Connected Banks Hunt Free Operation Measurement sensitivity of 1% Multi parameter Front panel digital display of PF, kVAR, Current & Capacitor Values.
