Power Factor Correction
Cylindrical Power Capacitor
Self-healing low-voltage power capacitors for reliable reactive power compensation in industrial power distribution systems.



Product introduction
Overview
SERU cylindrical power capacitors are designed for reactive power compensation applications where compact size, high reliability and long service life are required. They are suitable for automatic capacitor banks, local compensation and group compensation systems.
Applications
- Automatic reactive power compensation cabinets
- Local compensation for motors, transformers and lighting systems
- Group compensation and dynamic compensation
- Tuned or detuned power factor correction systems
Key notes / features
- Designed service life of up to 170,000 hours in harmonic-free environments
- Surge current withstand capability up to 300 × IR
- Self-healing dielectric design
- Integrated discharge resistor or discharge inductor
- Terminal design with temperature protection and discharge indication
Parameters / technical notes
- Capacitors should be discharged to below 75 V within 3 minutes before reconnection.
- In grids with harmonic distortion, capacitors should be used with appropriate detuned reactors or active filters to avoid resonance and overcurrent.
