OUR TECHNICAL EDGE
Exclusive to the KVAR? dealers is the “US Patented Sizer Apparatus” that we hook up to your commercial panel or motor. In a matter of minutes we can determine the exact amount of capacitance required to correct the power factor to 99.9% (close to unity) on the spot most of the time. Through reverse engineering, this unit takes into consideration line loses. Even bad bearings on motors and by correcting the power factor we can drop your amperage draw by up to 30%, reducing your electric consumption.
Currently there are ninety-three different combinations for sizing. We strive to bring out product to those who are concerned with more than saving just money in their energy bill. Those who are environmentally aware will be interested in knowing that this unit has provided a contribution to the safety of our environment by helping reduce the energy demand and by it’s environmentally friendly construction and installation on an individual and global scale. Our products have also been tested and are in compliance with the following accredited organizations and institutions: U.S. Department of Energy, EPA, NASA, UL Approved, CSA, Cleaner & Greener Certified & RoHS.
