An APFC (Automatic Power Factor Control) panel works by continuously monitoring the power factor of an electrical system and automatically adjusting it to remain close to unity. The panel detects the reactive power in the system and, based on the reading, switches capacitor banks on or off using an APFC relay. This automatic operation helps in maintaining optimal power factor, reducing energy losses, and minimizing penalties imposed by electricity providers for low power factor.
The APFC panel is equipped with a microprocessor-based controller that ensures precise and real-time operation. When the system experiences a lagging or leading power factor, the controller signals the necessary capacitors to engage or disengage, thereby correcting the power factor instantly. This process not only improves voltage stability but also reduces electrical stress on machinery, prolonging the life of equipment.
At Amprotec Engineering, our APFC panels are designed for high reliability and efficiency, suitable for manufacturing units, commercial buildings, hospitals, data centers, and other industrial applications. With proper installation, calibration, and maintenance, APFC panels provide long-term energy savings, enhanced system performance, and smarter power management for businesses.
