How PFC Refurbishment Improved Power Quality and Achieved Financial Savings
Summary
A manufacturing site saw rising energy costs due to failed PFC systems. Our retrofit solution with
detuned filters restored performance and eliminated utility penalties.
Client Background
An industrial manufacturer managing legacy systems and harmonic loads from VFDs, PVs and EV chargers.
Problem
Standard PFC units failed, causing excessive reactive power charges.
Solution
We retrofitted existing enclosures with detuned PFC modules and BMS-compatible controllers. No rewiring
or new panels required.
Results
-
Reactive power penalties eliminated
-
Future-proofed solution for harmonics
-
Ongoing maintenance in place
