- SPRAGUE
™ Fixed Capacitor Banks for
- Power Factor
Correction (EXTRA LONG LIFE)
|
Applications :
Individual industrial motor loads, Motor control centers, small,
medium and large substations. These capacitors are of
robust design and are
built for 20 years life, offering the lowest COST
OF OWNERSHIP OVER TIME. For less stringent applications, Saha
Sprague offers the ANTEX
A8™ fixed capacitors for power factor correction. |

Unique
Features of "Sprague" Capacitors (cells):
|
| *
Fully anti-explosive design incorporating 3 Phase UL approved
pressure interrupter, which ensures the safety of the Capacitors,
the Panel and of the operating personnel. This means:
Better Protection
for equipment and safety of personnel. |
| *
3 Year warranty against any defect in design of parts/labour. This
means: Sprague Capacitors
are warranted forb free replacement against any defect in
design/manufacturing during the first 3 years of its use. |
| *
Sprague Capacitors are Heavy Duty with positive tolerance in
capacitance (i.e. no negative tolerance). KVAR delivered will be
constant throughout its life. These capacitors are often used in
applications such as windmills (100-150 switching operation per
day!). This means: Savings
in maintenance and downtime cost as capacitors do not need to be
replaced in the long term. |
| *
Sprague cells are designed, manufactured and tested in accordance
with stringent standards such as NEC, IEC, IEEE, ANSI,
UL-recognized, & CSA approved This means:
You are using the highest
quality product in the market. |
| *
Capacitor elements are enclosed in Turn plate steel enclosed with
hermetically sealed construction such that atmospheric contamination
are avoided and better temperature withstanding capability is
permitted. This means: Better
environmental protection, and longer lasting life, leading to lower
cost of ownership over time. |
| *
Eco-friendly ECCOL Jelly is used as dielectric.This Thermo Plastic
material results in higher current carrying capacity and better
Thermal withstanding capability. This means:
Longer lasting life using
eco-friendly methods. |
| *
The design of the Capacitors allows a sufficient factor and safety
for operating voltages upto 600V. A ± 10 % variation in line
voltage will not affect the life of the capacitor. This means:
Ability to handle
higher voltage fluctuations, which is so prevalent. |
| *
The Capacitor cells are designed with advanced technology such that
the internal resistance of the Capacitors and Watt losses are kept
to a minimum. This means: The
watt losses are less than 0.2 Watts/Kvar |
| *
The terminal bushing of Capacitors are designed to withstand a
voltage of 10 KV AC to ground and BIL (Basic Impulse Level) of 30
KV. This means: The terminal
to terminal shorts are avoided with discharges under high humidity
conditions. |
| *
Equipment is designed manufactured and tested in accordance with the
latest standards of nema, nec, iec, ansi, ul, and CSA. This means:
Peace of
Mind. |
| *
also Tested by ERDA & CPRI. This means: Complete
peace of mind. |
| *
The individual Capacitors are designed for an operating life of 15
years or more. This fact has been established in the USA and Canada
where the use of these capacitors have been measured in terms
of "decades". In addition to actual life seen at site,
Commonwealth Sprague Capacitors Inc., has a testing facility which
allows them to conduct "accelerated life testing". This
capability allows us to determine the life of Capacitors under
different climatic and operating conditions. This means: Sprague
capacitors are tested to deliver a nominal design life of 20
years. |
| *
The capacitor cells are threaded for wire connection. |
| *
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of 5 % on voltage and current
waveforms will not affect the life of capacitors. |
| *
UL, CSA approved for 10,000 AFC (Available fault current) Protected. |
