What is Power Factor?

Power Factor is how efficiently your components (motors) are using the power created by your generator, typically most plant generators run between 50-65% power factor.

Where can these be installed and who uses them?

We can install these units in portable vans, trailers or stationary plants. Capacitor banks are generally used anywhere a low power factor becomes a concern.  Cap Banks can be used in any industry where a LOW power factor is present ie: manufacturing, mobile crushing plants, oil & gas rigs and factory’s.

Do you have results to show these power factor savings?
