NOVAR 2600 Operating Manual
When, for example, an active load of 15 kW occurs, then balanced state will be reached at power
factor of approximately 0.95 (measured by the controller). This value corresponds to the ratio of 5kvar
/ 15 kW. In other words, the controller will intentionally undercompensate by 5 kvar at the connected
network point in order the target power factor of 1.00 to be reached in the electricity meter connection
point, where the permanent capacitor comes to the effect.
When the offset control is activated, the choke control limit power factor parameter value
gets irrelevant.
4.3.2 PFC Output Setup
4.3.2.1 Compensation Section Type, Nominal Power and Control
State
All of the sections' (=outputs') fundamental characteristics are listed at the beginning of the PFC
output setup group. Each of the rows corresponds to particular output and contains:
• the output number (1.1 ÷ 1.9 for the output group 1, 2.1 ÷ 2.9 for the output group 2 )
• the output actual state and type in the form of the same output icon as on the PFC screen
• the output nominal three-phase reactive power

If you need more detailed information about the output or to edit any of the output parameter, enter
into sublevel with the
 button. Detailed output parameter screen appears as follows :
Fig. 4.8 : Individual Output Parameter Screen
In the first two rows, there are shown again the output type and its nominal three-phase reactive
power. To set any of these parameters correctly you must specify the output type first : scroll to the
output type and push the
 button. A pop-up menu with assortment of available output types appears
and now you can selected desired one. After confirmation with the  button, new output type is
assigned. Now you can modify the output reactive power.
