34 Reduce energy consumption and operating costs of a manufacturing plant Customer’s needs The manufacturing plant manager wants to identify and reduce energy consumption and improve the power quality on the network. As there are many motors with variable speed drives, the harmonic levels are considerably high on the network. The plant also needs to improve its power-factor to gain efficiencies and meet the utility prescription. Energy efficiency core products • Varset capacitor banks (options available with circuit breaker protection or fuse protection). • Varpact function plates and Varlogic controllers to build your own capacitor banks. • AccuSine active filtering solutions. Schneider Electric solution Varset capacitor banks can reduce the energy costs by improving the power factor. Avoid penalties for reactive power consumption on energy bills and gain savings on active consumption, thanks to the reduction of losses. AccuSine harmonic filters can effectively mitigate harmonics on the network and also provide power factor correction. Varset AccuSine
