SERVICE SPECIFICATIONS

Power Factor Correction Equipment

Mauro Fogliata Srl is a company operating in the field of industrial automation, transport and distribution of electricity, cogeneration and renewable energy. Founded in 1984, the company provides its partners with customised services for the design, manufacture, fitting, testing and commissioning of its products worldwide.

The extensive experience and professionalism of our personnel have resulted in establishing consolidated partnerships with leading clients in the energy and industrial automation sectors, both in Italy and throughout Europe. Since the outset, we have prioritised flexibility and attention to the customer. What’s more, thanks to the efficiency with which we operate, we were awarded UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 certification in the year 2019.

Based in Desenzano, we also design power factor correction equipment aimed at transforming any need for energy efficiency, safety and reliability into a project that meets the international standards of an increasingly-complex and expanding market.

The benefits of power factor correction equipment

Our power factor correction equipment is produced “in-house”, availing of the work of experienced collaborators, with artisan care and in line with industry standards, exclusivesly using first-rate suppliers and components.

Power factor correction refers to the process utilised to balance the electricity supply network. Electrical power is absorbed in the systems to supply the equipment, requiring the levels of the power factor correction equipment to be adjusted to certain values. Power factor correction ensures the power supply network is not overloaded, whilst also improving the capacity of the set-ups themselves.

At the heart of power factor correction operations is the concept of low power factor, a ratio between the active and reactive power that requires improvement in order to use energy in a rational manner, resulting in significant economic savings and substantial technical improvements. A system that has not been subject to power factor correction risks having the electricity supply being cut off and the application of sanctions. In addition, power factor correction equipment facilitates availing of technical and economic advantages, reducing the power level and thus leading to significant savings. This may occur right from the design phase, thanks to the skill of Mauro Fogliata Srl, able to satisfy any type of customer requirement.

The benefits of power factor correction equipment include a reduction in energy losses due to the heating of electrical cables and an increase in the system capacity. Ultimately, a set-up that has been subjected to power factor correction means greater power availability and a reduction in heating from the transformer, in addition to a reduction in operations that can interrupt the production cycle.

The design and assistance offered by Mauro Fogliata Srl

Our company offers assistance from our specialised technical staff in studying the problems of execution, design and sizing of power factor correction equipment for our clients. In addition, we also have employees able to take care of the design and development of PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) programmes and the analysis of any electrical, civil and industrial system (power factor correction, phase balancing, current harmonics, electrical isolation tests, consumption analyses and the like). All documentation concerning the individal project is delivered, whilst also being archived both in paper and electronic format. Ultimately, our company offers a personalised service, along with spare parts guaranteed in short time frames, thanks to the wide range of electrical and electronic components on-hand.
