6�1�2�- COS φ TARGET
To set-up this parameter, use the keys
until the cursor points to the option , then
push .
The parameter allows the setting of the desired PF in the installation. The regulator will control
the connection of the necessary number of capacitors to get the maximum approach to the
target value. Since the regulation is in a stepwise mode, the regulator will add a new step when
the demanded power is at least 70% of the lower available step power and will remove a step
whentheexcessisalsoa70%oftheloweravailablesteppower.Thecosφadjustmentrange
is from 0,85 inductive to 0,95 capacitive.
6�1�3�- SMALLER AVAILABLE CAPACITOR STEP
To set-up this parameter, use the keys
until the cursor points to the option , then
push .
This parameter, named C/K, indicates the reactive current supplied by the smaller capacitor
step,measuredatthesecondarysideofthecurrenttransformer(CT).Therefore,thesetting
value depends on the power of the smaller capacitor step, on the CT ratio and on the supply
voltage.
