High-voltage capacitor bank BMT series

The range of BMT type capacitor banks offers various solutions for industrial power factor correction thanks to the many combinations that can be made: small and high powers; working voltages greater than 24 kV obtained with overlapping frame structures (see the following paragraphs); indoor and outdoor installations; constructions on fully open structures (IP rating 00) or in special boxes (for powers up to 14.4 Mvar-24 kV also with degree of protection IP 54); different levels of insulation; operation under harsh working and environmental conditions; making filters for harmonics; special user requirements. In addition, the BMT type capacitors banks offer several advantages: easy installation operations thanks to the complete line of accessories offered; optimization of the installation thanks to the systems fitted for connections to the various systems; simplification of the transport and handling operations thanks to the construction in compact and versatile structures; easy maintenance operations; different possibilities of making the frames, including hot galvanized steel or stainless steel frames (for especially corrosive environments). The BMT banks are composed of a number of single-phase capacitors that are assembled and interconnected in order to obtain greater power; the connection is normally delta with insulated neutral.ì In addition to the capacitors and frame, the supply normally includes: post insulators (see following paragraph); connection bars; protection via transformer and unbalance relay; damping reactors.
