Power factor correction controllers from TDK for single and three phase n/ws

TDK Corporation has designed the new BR7000-I controller specifically for single-phase networks and combines all the performance features and functions of BR6000 series with the benefits of the BR7000 controller. This controller can be used for power factor correction (PFC) in single and three-phase industrial networks.

All information is displayed on a LCD graphic display with a resolution of 128 x 64 dots. HELP key provides the context-related help texts. The power factor cos f is displayed with three digits, and tan f can also be shown. Three results can be shown simultaneously in display mode. Odd harmonics can be measured and displayed up to the 33rd order, and even harmonics up to the 16th order. The selected harmonics can be represented in bar charts.

The controller has 12 or 13 outputs. The message and alarm relay parameters may be programmed to open or close. The BR7000-I (ordering code B44066R7012E230) can be combined with EPCOS capacitor contactors and PFC capacitors.
