CONFIGURABLE PARAMETERS
In order to adapt the regulator to the loads, certain parameters of the
REG-6S-100 and REG-12S-100
must be set-up. The programmable parameters, the required settings and the set-up procedure are
explained here below. See also paragraph 3.5.2 to see how to select the different menu options.
The configurable parameters are listed and shortly explained below.
5.1
Target
cosφ
To set-up this parameter, use the keys
until the cursor points to the option
, then push
The parameter allows the setting of the desired PF in the installation. The regulator will control the
connection of the necessary number of capacitors to get the maximum approach to the target value.
Since the regulation is in a stepwise mode, the regulator will add a new step when the demanded power
is at least 70% of the lower available step power and will remove a step when the excess is also a 70% of
the lower available step power. The
cosφ adjustment range is from 0,85 inductive to 0,95 capacitive.
5.2
Smaller available capacitor step
To set-up this parameter, use the keys
until the cursor points to the option
, then push
This parameter, named C/K, indicates the reactive current supplied by the smaller capacitor step,
measured at the secondary side of the current transformer (CT). Therefore, the setting value depends on
the power of the smaller capacitor step, on the CT ratio and on the supply voltage. Table 5.1 gives the
setting values of C/K for a 400 V phase to phase supply for different CT ratios and different values of
smaller capacitor step (kvar). For conditions other than those given in table 5.1, the paragraph 5.13
shows a simple calculation to obtain the C/K value. See also foot NOTE

(*) NOTE: For supply voltages other than 400 V the C/K factor obtained from the table must be multiplied
by the ratio (400 / V
supply
)
IMPORTANT! :
If C/K is adjusted too low the system will connect and disconnect steps with a lower threshold and
therefore the number of operations to control the average PF will be higher.
If C/K is adjusted slightly above the required value (10%) the system will react with higher threshold
values and therefore the number of operations to control the average PF will be lower. Wear of PF
compensation is also lower.
