Microgrids are designed to operate at a fundamental frequency (50 or 60 Hz). However, certain types of loads generate voltage and/or current harmonics that increase power system heat losses. These harmonic losses reduce system efficiency, cause apparatus overheating and increase power costs. Besides that, the Distributed Generation (DG) is expected to play an important role in future power systems, since it is able to reduce losses, improve power quality to end users.
Power quality can impact overall company performance but is easily overlooked. Active harmonic filters respond quickly and effectively to balance out power system variations. This enables higher process reliability, longer equipment life, reduced energy losses and improves productivity. Active harmonic filters provide a quick return on your investment. They also make it easy to comply with global power quality standards and demanding grid codes. The rise of non-linear and other challenging loads as well as sensitive operations present unique network power quality challenges. Stricter grid codes and power quality standards safeguard electrical system reliability for smooth industrial and commercial processes. Harmonic distortion, voltage variation, poor power factor and unbalanced load are key elements that test the reliability of modern electrical systems and induce overall greater system losses.
YTPQC-AHF Active Harmonic Filters provide dynamic reactive power compensation and harmonic filtering. They provide an efficient solution for power quality applications in commercial and industrial facilities as well as in infrastructure. Our design includes a state-of-the-art controller built on a modern 3-level IGBT-Inverter topology with a 7” touch-screen user interface and modular technical design. This combination results in a fast, reliable and compact device that is easy to operate and complies with all standard communication protocols.
YTPQC-AHF filters connect parallel to loads. They sense the harmonic distortions created by non-linear loads in the network and provide effective real-time response to cancel the distortion. They also ensure compliance with the harmonic distortion limits specified in IEEE 519, G5/4, IEC 61000 3-2 and 3-4 and other power quality standards and recommendations.
