8. OPERATION MODE
As soon as connected the Smart Cap 485 gets in operation showing the equipment type
and the software version. The initial screen shows the power factor of the control phase and
the control mode “Auto” or “Manual”. At this point the equipment stays in continuous
measurement and calculation process.
8.1. AUTOMATIC MODE ( DEFAULT )
The equipment operates in automatic mode doing the power factor correction when
inserting or withdrawing capacitors.
- Rotary Control:
When all capacitors are programmed with the same kVAr value, the equipment operates
in rotary mode. In this mode capacitors are put in the net as the number of commutations.
The capacitor that is with the minor number of commutations is the chosen to be inserted
and that with the biggest number of commutations to be withdrawn.
- Non Rotary Control:
