TENSE has added to its range of controllers for reactive power compensation systems.
Reactive power compensation unit controller, 12 steps, RGT-12E, manufactured by Tense (Turkey). The new TENSE development meets all the latest requirements for modern reactive power compensation systems installed in various industrial and civil construction sites - factories, workshops, farms, hotels, petrol stations, shopping centres, schools, hospitals, banks.
The new reactive power controller (reactive power compensation controller) has the following features:

• 12 relay outputs;

• Can be used with three or one current transformer;

• 2.9-inch LCD display + 17 LED indicators – provide easy setup and full control over the operation of the compensation device;

• Separate relay output, programmable for various emergency situations – overvoltage, harmonics, cos.phi;

• Password protection of settings to prevent unauthorised changes to the operating parameters of the capacitor bank;

• Indication of connected steps;

• Automatic and/or manual input of capacitor values in steps;

• Automatic control of the uniformity of the operating time of individual stages;

• User-definable various operating time parameters – response time to changes in the network, discharge time, time between re-engagement of a step, time between engagement of several steps;

• Compensates for both inductive and capacitive reactive components;

• Built-in active/reactive energy meters (import/export/inductive/capacitive);

• Display of up to 31 harmonics for current and voltage;

• Measurement of total harmonic distortion for current and/or voltage;

• Built-in reactive energy analyser with registration log for capacitor selection by steps (20 entries of 9999 minutes).
