A Power Factor Controller (PFC) is an electronic device used to improve the power factor of electrical systems, typically in industrial and commercial settings. Power factor is a measure of how effectively electrical power is being used, with a power factor of 1 (or 100%) being ideal. A low power factor indicates poor utilization of electrical power, leading to inefficiencies and increased costs.

Benefits

• Enhances the overall efficiency of electrical systems, reducing energy consumption.
• Lowers electricity bills by minimizing penalties associated with low power factor and reducing energy losses.
• Improves voltage stability and reliability in power distribution networks.
• Minimizes heat generation in electrical equipment, prolonging its lifespan and reducing maintenance costs.
• Helps meet utility requirements for power factor levels, avoiding additional charges.
• Reduces overall energy consumption, contributing to lower carbon emissions.
