Plant/Corporate Engineers

Contact us if:

• You are planning to install new electrical loads, build a new mill, or upgrade an existing mill, pump station, mining, auto shredder, or automated welding operation.
• You are unable to start your large HP motor(s),

Utility and Electric Co-op Engineers

Contact us if you need to:

• avoid "low voltage events" on power systems using "green energy" cogeneration,
• mitigate issues associated with flicker producing loads, or
• save dollars and resources by reducing your wholesale power purchases.

Cost Benefit

Save hundreds of thousands (or millions) of dollars when T-Star SVCs are “designed in” during new plant planning or plant upgrading.

Advantages

• T-Star reactive comensation systems "stiffen" the existing primary electrical power system (4160V and above) – eliminate prohibitively expensive power system upgrades.
• A single T-Star SVC allows starting of multiple large HP motors without VFD’s and soft starters.
• A single T-Star SVC reduces transformer loading and maintains voltage levels during dynamic electrical loading.
• Our SVC provides additional assistance for existing soft starters, enabling "hard-to-start" large HP motors to achieve full speed. If you are having difficulties starting a large HP motor on your site, a T-Star SVC (or combination SVC and soft starter) is the simplest and most cost-effective solution. One SVC (applied directly on the distribution primary) can accommodate multiple “problem” loads in electrical utility/co-op applications. Our "smart grid compatible" SVC -
• enables increased industrial loading in low PF plant applications such as mining,
• eliminates flicker to prevent your electric power provider from shutting down your industrial facility – welding, arc furnaces, woodchippers, dynamically-varying industrial loads of all kinds,
• provides a constant steady plant bus voltage after upgrading from MG sets to VFD’s (mill applications),
• improves industrial plant production throughput by maintaining rotor speed during heavy loading of wound-rotor (shredder) operations, and
• prevents low voltage problems in "Green Energy" applications (solar, wind, local cogeneration) – automatically compensates on a sub cycle basis as distributed generation becomes unavailable.
