During a recent trip to Ireland, we carried out the commissioning of 6 Active Harmonic filters and 3 new Power Factor Correction units at a large horticultural manufacturing site.

All the equipment had been shipped to the site and installed by the on-site engineering team ready for the energising of a production line. Our engineers spent 3 days on-site reviewing the installation and getting the active harmonic filter set up with the correct parameters and then tested under load conditions. Each Active Harmonic Filter was 300A and set up on two different supplies in a master/slave/slave configuration.

While on-site we also commissioned 3 new 360kVAr Power Factor Correction units, each with its own detuning reactor, customed to the site’s load requirements.
