AUTOMATIC POWER FACTOR CORRECTION SOLUTION FOR THE WASTE TREATMENT SECTOR

THE CLIENT

Italian company in the waste treatment sector.

THE NEED

Industrial machinery in waste treatment plants often creates phase shifts between active and reactive power, resulting in a non-compliant cosφ. This leads to economic risks (billing penalties) and technical issues (overloads, losses, reduced equipment lifespan).

OUR SOLUTION

The Multimatic HP10 is a robust automatic power factor correction system, designed to maintain the power factor close to unity.

This device:

  • Compensates reactive power through metallised polypropylene capacitor banks.
  • Reduces overload, inefficiencies and overheating, protecting network and equipment reliability.
  • Adapts to different industrial load profiles, ensuring continuity and operational stability.

The Multimatic HP10 is part of a complete Ortea range capable of handling even environments with high harmonic content, thanks to integrated filtering solutions.
