Static Synchronous Compensator

Listing ID #893803

We are offering static synchronous compensator,
statcom can be considered a voltage source behind a reactance. Physically, it is built as a three-level inverter operating at constant direct current (dc) voltage. It generates and absorbs reactive power by electronically processing voltage and current waveforms in a voltage source converter (the grid views it as a synchronous machine without inertia). As a result, capacitor banks and shunt reactors are not needed for statcom to generate and absorb reactive power, which enables a compact design and small footprint. The high switching frequency of the igbts provides extremely fast control, and is particularly useful in applications such as mitigating the voltage flicker created by electric arc furnaces, voltage balancing, harmonic filtering and grid voltage recovery.
