Utility power plant generators are usually designed for a power factor (PF) of .8 to .9. If demand-side PF is lower than the designed PF, the generator current will rise above the equipment's rated ...

This video shows how HiperPFS-4’s unique light-load filter compensation algorithm corrects for input filter distortion even at loads under 20%, ensuring excellent PF and THD. The HiperPFS-4 family ICs ...

Power Integrations announced its HiperPFSTM-3 family of power factor correction ICs, which offer high power factor and high efficiency across the entire load range. Power Integrations announced its ...

If you operate electric motors in your manufacturing facility, you may be paying for wasted power. The power factor of your electrical system gives the amount of productive power your facility is ...

Power factor correction is the process of improving a low power factor in a facility by increasing the ratio of real (working) power to apparent (total) power. Here is what HP says about power factor ...

Recent studies indicate the level of knowledge and implementation of motor system energy-efficiency measures is low. A plethora of information on motor system design, best practices, purchasing, and ...

Most discussions on manufacturing energy efficiency focus on identifying easy-to-find-and-fix energy wasters such as compressed air leaks, inefficient lighting, equipment that is always left on when ...
