Why Choose ZHIMING's Power Compensation Controller?
Full Digital Control & High-Precision PF Regulation
The JKW Reactive Power Compensation Controller adopts AC sampling technology with digital integration and filtration, making it insensitive to harmonic interference. Using reactive power as the primary controlling physical quantity, it achieves high-precision automatic power factor correction with adjustable target PF from 0.70 to 0.99.
Intelligent Switching Optimization & Extended System Life
An optimized automatic control scheme minimizes unnecessary capacitor switching cycles — reducing contactor wear and extending the service life of the entire compensation system. Built-in over-voltage and under-voltage judgment with fast cutoff protects capacitor banks from abnormal voltage conditions, while the configurable 200-second re-insertion delay ensures complete capacitor discharge before reconnection.
Strong Anti-Interference & Data Protection
Capable of withstanding up to 2000V interference pulses from the direct power supply, this Reactive Power Compensation Controller maintains stable operation without crashing or losing data. All control parameters are stored in non-volatile memory, ensuring data integrity even during power failures.
Flexible Configuration & User-Friendly Operation
Equipped with both manual and automatic working modes, the controller supports easy on-site commissioning and debugging. The digital display provides real-time readout of power factor, reactive power, voltage, and current (primary side), while the current sampling input resistance below 0.05Ω allows direct connection from measuring loops without additional signal conditioning.
FAQ
What is the main purpose of this Reactive Power Compensation Controller?
The JKW Reactive Power Compensation Controller automatically regulates capacitor banks in low-voltage distribution systems to maintain the target power factor. By minimizing reactive power drawn from the grid, it improves transformer efficiency, reduces line losses, and lowers electricity costs while enhancing overall voltage stability.
How many capacitor switching loops does this controller support?
The JKWD Series supports 1 to 12 output loops, configurable based on the compensation system size. Each loop can operate in either transient mode (DC 12V @ 50mA) or steady-state mode (AC 380V @ 7A / AC 220V @ 5A), accommodating various contactor and thyristor switching configurations.
Can the target power factor be adjusted on this Reactive Power Compensation Controller?
Yes. The target power factor is programmable from 0.70 to 0.99 with 0.01 resolution (factory default: 0.98). All control parameters — including CT ratio (50:5 to 3000:5), switching delay, and sensitivity — are fully adjustable via the digital interface and retained in non-volatile memory after power-off.
How does the controller protect capacitors from over-voltage conditions?
The controller continuously monitors voltage and automatically executes fast cutoff of capacitor banks when over-voltage or under-voltage is detected, preventing capacitor damage. The built-in re-insertion delay (configurable up to 200 seconds per capacitor group) ensures complete discharge before reconnection, reducing inrush current impact on the electrical network.
What is the advantage of the AC sampling and digital filtration technology?
The AC sampling and digital integration technology makes the controller insensitive to harmonic distortion, ensuring accurate reactive power measurement even in electrically noisy environments. Combined with the <0.05Ω current sampling input resistance, it delivers reliable Class 1.0 voltage/current accuracy and ±1.0% power factor precision without requiring external signal conditioners.
