1．Introduction

Compliance with standards
GB/T 15576-2008 Low voltage reactive power compensation assemblies GB/T 22582-2008 Power capacitors—Low-voltage power factor correction banksJB/T 9663－1999 Low voltage reactive power automatic compensation controller

Overview
SFR-M series low voltage intelligent power capacitor modules take two △type compensation capacitors or one Y type compensation capacitor as main body and are highly integrated with compound switch, microprocessor and other function modules. Due to their modularity structure,they have such advantages as small volume and easy maintenance. SFR-Mseries power capacitor modules are mainly used for reactive power compensation in the fields where harmonics are not very serious. They are suitable for local compensation, dispersion compensation and centralized compensation. This series of products adopt double zero-crossing switch technology to make sure there is no over voltage or high inrush current during capacitor switching soastopro long capacitor life and switch life. SFR-M series capacitor modules have many protection functions such as capacitor internal temperature protection, grid harmonic content protection, over current protection, over voltage protection and three phase unbalance protection which make them more reliable. This series of products adopt a using method of building blocks. If many capacitors are used, one of them will become the master automatically, and others will become slaves. Then a reactive automatic control system is built. If some of the slaves fail, theywill exitthe system automatically without influencing other slaves; if the master fails, it alsowill exit thesystem automatically, and then another new master appears and a new control systemisbuilt.Meanwhile, SFR-M series capacitor modules are integrated with some functions of power meterswhich can measure conventional electrical parameters of the power system.

Installation method
For good heat radiation, make sure horizontal distance between two modules is not less than 50mm, and vertical distance is enough for using screw driver. Usually three layers of modules can be installed in ordinary GGD cabinet （800mm1000mm2200mm）. One of the three layers contains three modules, so that three layers contain nine modules.

Accessories
The specification of pressing joints is 16mm2. It is used for 10～1616mm2 lines. Every total
compensation module is equipped with three joints, and every separate compensation module is equipped with four joints.

Plug gable data line is used to connect modules or module and other accessories for net working. There are three specifications which are 0.7-meter, 1.0-meter and 2.5-meter.0.7-meter line is used to connect two adjacent modules on same layer; 1.0-meter line is used to connect modules on adjacent layers; 2.5-meter line is used to connect controller module.2.5 meter line is also used to connect host cabinet and auxiliary cabinet in a same system. If customer needs plug gable data line with other length, please specify when ordering.

Secondary Current Transformer is an optional unit which is used for primary current (5A)sampling in bus line of incoming cabinet. The transformer is necessary when customer onlyuseSFR-M series low voltage harmonic suppression reactive compensation module. UsuallySFR-Mseries modules are defaulted to be equipped with reactive power compensationcontroller（ WGK-31-203), which make it not necessary to equip secondary current transformerstothemodule.

Typical wiring

Compensation module can be used alone. When it is used alone, it should be equipped with a secondary current transformer for each system. If there is no separate module in a system,single phase current transformer is suitable, otherwise, please equip three phase current transformer in that system. Current transformer is connected to Phase B current of incoming cabinet and any one of the modules in the cabinet. It is suggested to connect the current transformer to the module with smallest number.
Compensation module also can be equipped with controllers. If there is no separate compensation module in a system, WGK-31-203-G compensation controller is suitable, otherwise,please equip WGK-31-203-F compensation controller in that system. SFR-M series\ modules are connected with WGK-31-203 compensation controller by specialized plug gable data line. One WGK-31-203 controller can be connected up to32SFR-Mseries modules. Controller and capacitor modules can realize automatic networking by adopting internal protocol. Common System configuration and wiring diagram are shown in following diagrams.

Common problems and solutions

Automatic switch in after power on
The compound switch inside a module is defaulted to be open, but it may become closed because of vibration in transportation. In this case, user needs to connect the module to grid which can bare the current of that module to make it reset.

External indication light on after module power on; External indication light off after modulepower off.
First, please confirm the type of module. If the module is total compensationtype, thecommon end of external indication light should be connected to Ub; if the moduleisseparatecompensation type, the common end of external indication light should be connected toUn. Second, the connection of external indication light is right. In this case, user needstocheckthe phase sequence of wires connected to the module and make it the same withtheprinteddiagram on module.
Note: It is normal that the external indication light is in false light status.

Other abnormal situation.
Please contact our technical service department and describe the field situation clearly. Our technicians will provide solution according to your description. If the problem can not be solved after communication, we will send technicians to solve the problem at field.

Switching test
Switching tests are divided into two kinds which are simulation switching test and normal switching test according to switching effects. The difference between these two kinds of test sis that in simulation switching test, the capacitor module is not really switched in, so there is no large current, but in normal switching test, the capacitor module is switched in and there will be large current. Please select the testing method according to practical situation so as not to burn the wire or cause accidents.

Controller simulation switching test

Change the dial switch on the capacitor module to Test;
Control the switching of capacitor module through compensation controller. Meanwhiletheindication lights will react. If the indication light is on, that means the capacitor moduleisswitched in; if the indication light is off, that means the capacitor module is switched off.

Controller normal switching test

Change the dial switch on the capacitor module to Work;
Change the power factor of circuit. Controller will control the real switching of capacitor modules according to power factor. If the indication light on capacitor module and external in dication light are on, that means the capacitor module is switched in; if the indication light on capacitor module and external indication light are off, that means the capacitor module is switched off.

Ordering specification and contact method
