  12. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TRMS = TRUE ROOT MEAN SQUARE DCRK measurements are calculated in TRMS, to give exact values also in presence of harmonic distortion.

  13. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS COSj= DISPLACEMENT POWER FACTOR It is in the cosine of the displacement angle between voltage and current. DCRK regulators can read correctly the D.P.F. regardless of the presence of harmonics on current and voltage waveforms.

  14. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS POWER FACTOR The Power Factor (P.F.) or Total Power Factor (TPF) is the ratio between active power (W) and apparent power (VA). In a system without harmonics, the power factor is the same value as COSj. In other conditions, the power factor is less than the COSj. Power factor correction systems can adjust the COSj to the required value and can thereby obtain the best possible power factor. W W P.F. = P.F. = VA VA

  15. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS Wh Wh P.F. = Varh² + Wh² Varh² + Wh² TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS MEASUREMENT OF WEEKLY AVERAGE POWER FACTOR This reading considers the last 7 days of the DCRK operation. It is calculated in the same way used by energy suppliers, storing active and reactive energy meters in DCRK internal memory. This value is therefore a true efficiency index of the entire reactive power correction system.

  16. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AUTOMATIC IDENTIFICATION OF CT CURRENT FLOW At power up, the DCRK controller automatically recognizes the current flow direction through the Current Transformer (CT). This avoids inverting the CT connections during installation. In cogeneration plants, where it is necessary to operate in 4-quadrant, the CT connection sense must be set manually.

  17. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS EXTREME REDUCTION OF STEP SWITICHING A control algorithm provides for the maximum reduction of the number of operations. The adjustment is conducted in a precise manner and not by consecutive attempts. The reduction of the number of operations substantially lowers the capacitor and contactor wear.

  18. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS HOMOGENEOUS USE OF EQUAL RATED STEPS Each step is provided with one operation counter and one hour meter, in order to provide an equal usage of capacitors with the same rating. The uniform operation of the steps prolongs the life and efficiency of both the capacitors and contactors.

  19. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AUTOTRIMMING Consents to the ongoingcontrol of the steps power installed. In case of step wear, all the relative power parameters are automatically recalculated. This allows the DCRK unit to work rapidly and efficiently, that is with fewer and quicker operations.

  20. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS 5% 5th HARM U THD = 5% CAP OVRL = 102.5% OVERLOAD PROTECTION OF CAPACITORS The capacitor overload can be caused by overvoltage or, more often, by non-linear loads that cause harmonic distortion on the voltage line. The voltage waveform is analysed by special algorithm that calculates the exact percentage of the current flowing in the capacitors. Once the set current overload threshold limit is exceeded, the capacitors are disconnected within a time inversely proportional to the exceeding limit. THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) does not change with harmonic frequency, and therefore it is not an indicator of capacitor overload. 5% 7th HARM U THD = 5% CAP OVRL = 105.5% 5% 11th HARM U THD = 5% CAP OVRL = 114.5% 5% 13th HARM U THD = 5% CAP OVRL = 120%

  21. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS NO VOLTAGE RELEASE This function can prevent damage to the capacitors by disconnecting them from the mains when short power lossess are detected.

  22. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS PROTECTION AGAINST OVER-TEMPERATURE The DCRK controllers include an internal temperature sensor, which monitors the temperature variation of the electric panel. This temperature value isdisplayed and the maximum value is logged. By setting related parameters, a threshold can be set to switch on a relay to operate a ventilation system. It is also possible to set an higher threshold to generate an overtemperature alarm.

  23. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS G M TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOUR-QUADRANT OPERATION When a plant is equipped with a co-generation system, it means there are conditions where energy is imported (consumed) and others where it is exported (generated). In these circumstances, the displacement angle between voltage and current can vary between 0° and 360° (four quadrants) so the DCRK must be programmed accordingly. It is possible to set two independent cosφ setpoints, one for imported and the other for exported energy. When working with cogeneration plants, automatic CT connection feature cannot be used.

  24. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS EASY CURRENT TRANSFORMER SETTING The manufacturer of power factor correction panels can set all of the setup parameters of the DCRK except the CT primary, since it depends on the final customer plant. In this case, during the system installation and once the controller is powered up, the display will show a flashing CT indicating thatthe CT has not been programmed. Just selecting the correct value from the list and storing it with one key will enable the DCRK operation.

  25. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AUTOMATIC SETUP Allows the installation of the DCRK controllers without programming any parameter. Just pushing two keys, the user is able to put the DCRK into operation. 5sec

  26. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS KEYPAD LOCK • The activation of this function is made by a combination of keys. • Once programmed, the following operations will be locked: • Access to parameter setup • Changing of COSj setpoint • Changing the operating mode (AUT/MAN) • MAX values clearing • However, all the measurements will be still accessible. 1° MODE 2° 3 x 3° 2 x

  27. DCRK DIGITAL POWER FACTOR CONTROLLERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TTL / RS-232 INTERFACE By using the DCRK SW software and the TTL/RS-232 interface, a quick set-up of the controller can be achieved via PC, avoiding in this way, possible parameter setting errors. The DCRK programmed parameters can also be stored on the PC and quickly downloaded into an unlimited number of units, which require the same programming. The customising of alarm properties can be made as well as the automatic panel testing with the control of the power installed and the test report printing too.
