Thyristor switch
KATKA 20/80 KMB Systems

Thyristor switching modules of the KATKA line have been designed especially for switching power factor correction capacitors in rapid reactive power compensation (up to 20 control interventions in one second) in conjunction with fast power factor controllers of the NOVAR line. They can be also used in other applications where contact-less load switching is required.

Characteristics

- switching device with long life
- high number of connections and disconnections
- up to 29 kVar (KATKA 20) with passive cooling
- up to 87 kVar (KATKA 80) with active cooling
- reduced current and voltage interference with the power systemm (connection and disconnection at near-zero power)
- fast connection and disconnection.
