## Long description

The Erko KG\_MKG-20-400 is a high-performance low-voltage gas-filled capacitor engineered specifically for power factor correction and the stabilization of electrical networks. By utilizing advanced gas-filled technology, this capacitor provides a reliable and environmentally friendly solution for managing reactive power in industrial and commercial environments. The inclusion of an integrated temperature sensor allows for real-time monitoring of the unit's thermal state, which significantly enhances operational safety and helps prevent potential failures due to overheating.
Advantages
This capacitor stands out due to its robust construction and high efficiency in reactive power compensation. The gas-filled design offers superior stability and a longer service life compared to traditional liquid-filled alternatives, reducing the need for frequent maintenance. The integrated temperature sensor provides an essential layer of protection, enabling automated systems to monitor the capacitor's health continuously. Its compact design ensures that it can be easily integrated into existing electrical panels and power factor correction banks without requiring extensive modifications.
Suitable for
Industrial power factor correction systems
Commercial electrical network stabilization
Reactive power management in low-voltage grids
Electrical infrastructure requiring thermal monitoring
When it may not be suitable
This capacitor is designed specifically for low-voltage applications and should not be used in medium or high-voltage electrical systems. It is also not intended for environments where the ambient temperature consistently exceeds the manufacturer's specified operating limits, as this may compromise the integrity of the gas insulation.
Key specifications
Type: Low-voltage gas-filled capacitor
Integrated feature: Temperature sensor
Application: Power factor correction
Design: Compact for panel mounting
How to use
The installation of the Erko KG\_MKG-20-400 should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. The unit must be securely mounted within a ventilated electrical cabinet to ensure proper heat dissipation. Connect the power terminals according to the wiring diagram provided with your power factor correction bank. The integrated temperature sensor should be wired to a compatible monitoring or protection relay to enable automatic shutdown or alarm functions if the internal temperature exceeds safe operating thresholds.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that the voltage rating matches your electrical network requirements
Ensure the available space in your electrical cabinet is sufficient for the unit dimensions
Confirm compatibility of the temperature sensor with your existing monitoring equipment
Check the reactive power capacity requirements of your facility
Usage recommendations
Regularly inspect the electrical connections for tightness and ensure that the ventilation within the cabinet remains unobstructed to maintain optimal operating temperatures and extend the lifespan of the capacitor.
