Active Voltage Conditioner
The Active Voltage Conditioner (AVC) provides rapid, continuous voltage regulation, correcting voltage sags, swells and prevents downtime. The AVC has no batteries or storage.
The AVC is specifically designed to handle dynamic load conditions commonly found in industrial environments, including:
- High inrush currents
- High harmonic distortion levels
- Regenerative power from robotics, elevators, and other regenerative loads.
A voltage sag (North America) or voltage dip (IEC) is a reduction in RMS voltage of 10% or more below the nominal voltage range for a period of 1/2 cycle to 1-min as defined in the IEEE 1668 standard.
How the AVC works
The AVC consists of a rectifier, inverter and a series injection transformer, which is connected between the supply and the load.
The AVC corrects voltage phase angles and amplitudes within 3 milliseconds by drawing additional current for the duration of the sag. It requires no battery storage. It also provides continuous regulation within +/-10% from the nominal utility voltage.
An internal bypass prevents the load from dropping if an internal overload occurs.
