Modules for complete capacitor banks installation

Modules for complete capacitor banks installation

Modules for complete capacitor banks installation (further “modules”) are meant for capacitor banks location inside them for reactive power compensation for voltage 0,4; 6,3; 10,5 kV. Module presents itself a heat-insulated metal container, what permits to use capacitor banks in different climatic conditions, to put into operation equipment in a proper time, to reduce significantly the charges for mounting and commissioning works.
Operation terms:

  • Ambient air temperature: from -60 up to + 45°С. –Height above sea level: not more 1000 m.
  • Environment is non-explosive, not containing current-conducting dust, aggressive gases and vapors in concentrations destroying metal and insulation.
Modules for complete capacitor banks installation

Capacitor banks are placed along longitudinal axis in a module.
Inside module area is equipped with lighting, local heating and ventilation systems, which keep the required temperature regime in automatic regime. If necessary a module can be equipped with a guard system and fire alarm, automatic fire extinguishers. Power energy consumption for own needs does not exceed 6 kW and depends on climatic performance and overall dimensions of module. One door and dismountable technological panel are provided in a module.

Capacitor banks for voltage 6-10 kV are placed in one module; banks for voltage 0,4 kV are placed up to 5 pcs. in one module; with stub wiring cable it’s possible to install 3 banks (with two inputs into a module). Module has an input from below by three aluminum cables with section up to 240 mm2.

Modules for complete capacitor banks installation

In module designation the first number of type is a serial number of design which determines overall dimensions.

For doubled modules a combination of two serial numbers of the design with indication of jointing as per length (L) and width (W).

Modules with air input for complete capacitor bans placement

  1. There is a possibility of repeated movements because there is no need in special foundation laying.
  2. There is a possibility of direct connection with overhead power transmission lines thanks to the installed bushings at module mast.
