VARCap® series represents a new generation of power factor correction (PFC) capacitors based on the MKK AC technology from TDK®. This breaktgrough technology has brought the following innovations :

  • Self-healing polypropylene film
  • Pressure sensitive disconnector  on 3 phases
  • Biodegradable soft resin
  • Pre-installed ceramic discharge resistors
  • Finger protection terminals
  • High thermal efficiency
  • Vertical or horizontal installation
  • High long-term stability.

Technical data :

  • Voltage range 230 V … 1000 V
  • Power range 5.0 kvar … 50 kvar
  • Extended life expectancy up to 240,000 hours
  • Supports a maximum current Imax = 2.0*Ir
  • (including the combined effects of harmonics, overvoltages and capacitance tolerance the standard only requires 1.3*Ir)
  • Supports inrush current up to 500*Ir
  • Up to 15,000 operations per year
  • Maximum operating temperature 60°C
  • IP20 degree of protection
  • Complies with IEC 60831-1 and -2 standards
