METAL-ENCLOSED POWER CAPACITOR BANKS...

NEPSI’s Medium Voltage Metal-enclosed Shunt Power Capacitor Banks are custom designed for application on industrial, commercial, and utility power systems that require medium voltage power factor correction. The capacitor banks are configurable as fixed or automatic controlled with 1 or more stages.The power capacitor banks are designed for placement in outdoor or indoor substations and come fully assembled, tested, and ready for interconnection.The banks are customized by NEPSI to meet site and system requirements and can be configured to include some or all protection, control, switching, disconnecting and grounding functions.

BENEFITS AND FEATURESMedium Voltage Metal-enclosed Shunt Power Capacitor Banks offer many features and benefits over traditional open air (stack-rack) capacitor banks. When all costs are considered, including engineering, integration, site preparation, installation, maintenance, and liability, the Metal-Enclosed Capacitor Bank Design is the favorable choice.The following table summarizes the many features and benefits of applying metal-enclosed capacitor banks to your system.
