Most facility managers don’t spend much time thinking about power factor \u2014 until a penalty charge shows up on the electricity bill. That’s usually the moment the conversation starts. But the truth is, poor power factor has been quietly costing money and stressing equipment long before anyone notices.<\/p>

A power factor controller<\/a>\u00a0exists to solve exactly that problem. It monitors the electrical system in real time and automatically compensates for reactive power, keeping the power factor as close to unity as possible. Simple concept, but the downstream effects on cost, efficiency, and equipment health are significant.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
