Powerful and compactABB capacitors and a specially designed ventilation system allow the
APC to reach a maximum reactive power within a minimum volume.
Easy to select The APC exists in 5 versions: 2 types of boxes (APCL1 and APCL2)
and 3 types of cubicles (APCM1, APCM2 and APCR).
The APC offers a power range from 25 to 400kvar. Small power steps
and appropriate switching sequences allow an acute regulation.
Easy to installThe APC is a complete unit, factory tested and ready for connection.
Its commissioning may be completely automatic.
There is ample space for wiring.
The APCL box is equipped with wall mounting brackets.
The APCM and APCR cubicles are equipped with a plinth and lifting
lugs for easy handling.
Easy to useThe multiple automatic functions of the RVC and its user-friendly
interface make the APC very easy to operate.

APCR: de-tuned range - with reactors
LVCS
The reliability of the APC is based on a set of ABB components specially designed for the reactive power compensation application.
The APC has an IP23D protection level (closed door) and is protected against direct and accidental contact (open door).
ABB Contactors
Contactors have been specially selected for their excellent endurance tests handling capability.

Reliable and safe
ABB capacitors
The dielectric of the capacitors windings is made of in-house metallized polypropylene film giving exceptional properties:
• high voltage withstand capability.
• excellent peak current handling capacity.
• high capacitance stability.
• long life even under high electrical stress.
• very low losses.
• exceptional self-healing properties.
LVCS capacitors
The LVCS protection system offers a reliable and safe protection. It is based on:
• the instant reaction of state of the art overpressure detection and disconnection devices.
• a double casing insulation protecting the windings from the environment and assuring a high capacitance stability over the whole capacitor service life.
The LVCS is suitable for maximum ambient temperature of +55°C (class D) and minimum of -25°C.
The LVCS reinforced range is rated at 474V.

ABB Reactors (for APCR execution)
The dry type resin embedded reactors are specially designed to suit the reactive power compensation application.
Their exceptional linearity and thermal stress resistance characteristics ensure a high reliability degree even in
case of temporary overvoltage.
Ventilation
Except for the APCL1 type, all APCs are equipped with a ventilation system specially selected for its long life duration. The APC ventilation system consists
of fans with temperature-dependent speed control and temperature probes which provide the fans with the necessary thermal data. These fans adapt their
speed to the actual cooling requirements of the APC. In case of temporary overheating, the APC is automatically disconnected.
RVC PF Controller
The RVC is insensitive to the presence of harmonics.
The RVC complies with EU directives for EMC for operation at 50Hz and bears the CE marking to this effect.
The RVC is suitable for hot environments thanks to its maximum ambient temperature of 70°C.
The RVC is fitted with an overvoltage and undervoltage protection.

Options
While having all the functions of the RVC, the RVT also has
features including:
programmable protection thresholds (undervoltage,
overtemperature, excessive harmonic distortion, etc…).
The RVT protects your capacitor bank. It is recommended
for instal lation where overvoltage, resonance or
overtemperature is likely to happen.

guided navigation and programming.
network information and bank monitoring (voltage,
current, harmonics spectrum, etc...)
RS-485 Modbus adapter allowing communication with a
monitoring system. All RVT parameters are remotely
accessible (including harmonic spectra and tables.)
multi-language support.
help button giving instant access to a description of all
RVT features and functionality.
