Improving of electricity quality and improving of power system reliability;
Comprehensive overload protection;
Over-voltage and under-voltage protection.
Active harmonic filters and power optimization devices of PQSine series UKCP production are based on modern power electronic technology.
They are installed parallel to the load generating non-sinusoidal distortions. An active filter analyzes the current of main frequency and the currents of higher harmonics, and then generates a compensation current in the opposite phase, which allows to reduce the level of distortions and obtain an almost sinusoidal waveform (see Fig. 1).
Figure 2 shows a total current distortion of higher harmonics without active pqsine filter and power optimizer; figure 3 shows the result with enabled pqsine active filter and power optimizer. The result of PQSine switching on is a significant reduction of non-sinusoidal distortions in the network.
In addition to higher harmonics level reduction the pqsine active filter and electrical energy optimizer are able to balance the loads in all three phases, as well as to perform dynamic compensation of reactive power VAR. A reduction of possibility of resonant phenomena can ensure a high reliability of power system and maintain a high productivity of the technological process.
A modular design principle greatly simplifies the production and service maintenance of active filters. A special algorithm of data processing is superior in speed of traditional algorithms based on the fast Fourier transform. A 32-bit digital processor allows to respond to fast-flowing changes in the network at a speed of not more than 21 msec.
Phase-by-phase operation of active filter provides not only a reduction of higher harmonic distortions and increase of power factor of electricity consumption, but also phase-by-phase load balancing.
PQSine filter provides a suppression of higher harmonics regardless of the number of electrical receivers.
