Power factor controller 12 steps + TCR with 2.9" graphical LCD display (TENSE) - RGT-12E

The reactive power controller RGT-12E from TENSE is a fully automatic and high-precision controller designed for optimal management of compensation stages in power systems. With digital measurement, intelligent algorithms, and a graphical LCD display, it provides a stable power factor, efficient reactive power control, and protection of compensation equipment.

Main features and functions

Automatic recognition of compensation stages

The controller configures itself after power-up:

• Automatically detects the size of connected capacitor steps

• Manual parameter input is also possible

• the system continuously monitors the status of each step

Intelligent switching control

The controller switches the steps on and off so that:

• a stable power factor is achieved with a minimal number of switchings

• individual steps are loaded evenly

• capacitors with the lowest residual charge are preferred

• the status of each step is checked simultaneously (faults, power changes, removal and re-engagement)

Support for TCR (thyristor-controlled reactor)

The controller enables compensation control with thyristor-switched reactors, which is ideal for:

• Industrial applications

• dynamic compensation

• systems with frequent load changes

Advanced measurement and analysis

• Measurement of harmonic voltages and currents up to the 31st harmonic

• Monitoring of total energy (import/export)

• THD-V and THD-I measurements for each phase

• Power analysis generation (20 samples from 9999 min.) - very useful in designing compensation unitsFlexibleWiring of compensation elements

Application capabilities:

• Single-phase capacitors

• two-phase capacitors

• three-phase capacitors

• shunt reactors

Adjustable time functions

Can be set:

• intervention time

• discharge time

• settling time
  This allows precise control adjustment depending on the nature of the operation.
