Distributes operating hours evenly among capacitors of the same size to prolong component life.
True RMS monitoring of voltage, current, and harmonics. A capacitor step has degraded and no longer
Supports both automatic and manual operation modes.
in public or technical libraries under that exact name. Epcos (now part of TDK Electronics) produced power factor controllers like the BR6000 series, BR7000 , or B44066 series, but no verified “BR 5016” model appears in their historical or current datasheets. With its user-friendly interface, compact design, and high
Optimal for systems with binary or progressive step sizing.
Power factor correction (PFC) is a critical component of modern electrical energy management. By optimizing the ratio between working power and apparent power, industrial facilities can significantly reduce energy costs, minimize heat generation, and eliminate utility penalties. The Epcos BR5016 Power Factor Controller serves as the intelligent brain of automatic PFC systems.
