Schneider Electric
power factor correction and filtering
An industrial unit at the cutting edge of technology.
The Total Quality approach, which has been fully adopted
by Merlin Gerin for many years, has enabled us to make use of
the launch of this new offer to completely re-think the company's
industrial organisation.
The 2 production sites
(RECTIPHASE in PRINGYFrance
and SSAM in
SHANGAI - China) have
been completely
re-organised to provide the
highest possible levels of
¡ quality,
¡ safety,
¡ réactivity
by combining the
advantages of
automation for repetitive
and tiresome tasks with
the human touch and
perspicacity for the
supervision, control and
organisation.
The power of
the Schneider Electric
Group
Being part of an international group,
the flexibility of a small team and the
experience of tens of MVAR installed in all
possible environments over the last 40 years,
are assurance that each installation is fitted
with the best possible equipment.

¡ specific support design
lowering of centre of gravity
top and bottom entry cables
against internal faults (low current) by the
use of an overpressure system
- the dielectric loses its properties
- the internal pressure slowly increases and
raises a metal disc
- above a preset factory threshold, this shortcircuits
the internal fuse thus taking the
capacitor out of operation
against external faults (high current) by the
use of an integrated HRC fuse
¡ risk of explosion reduced to zero, an Aluminium case is not needed
¡ integrated discharge resistor
¡ maximum fire resistance (self-extinguishing); UL certification… V0
¡ automated production line to reduce the possibility of human error
to a minimum
¡ at the time of installation, all positions are allowed
¡ no earth link required (plastic case)
¡ top connection
¡ fixing by 2 M6 bolts
¡ kit for substituting Varplus by Varplus2
¡ ready-to-use installation kits for Prisma Plus, Blokset and
Okken panels and for SAREL universal panels
¡ simplified handling and connection
¡ completely modular - combine together at
the top and bottom by fitting one into the other
