Did you know that even the most modern power networks are not perfect and voltage sags are the most common cause of equipment malfunction in today’s automated industry? The PCS100 AVC-40, built on a proven and dependable converter platform, provides instant voltage sag and surge correction, ensuring maximum productivity.

As the market leader in power conditioning, ABB developed the PCS100 AVC-40 range for the IEC and UL markets, with power ranges from 225 kVA to 3600 kVA. It is fully adaptable, highly efficient, and easy to install and maintain. Power protection has been taken to a whole new level without the need to compromise.

The PCS100 AVC-40 is an active voltage conditioner designed specifically to solve voltage disturbance problems. It is a high-performance power electronic system designed for industrial and large commercial applications. It responds instantly to voltage disturbance events and provides continuous regulation of voltage.

It’s industrial design and rugged overload capability means it can handle conditions that other products of similar designs cannot. Furthermore, it contains a redundant internal bypass system that ensures that the load continues to be supplied from the utility.

The PCS100 AVC-40 helps improve a facilities performance by regulating the voltage; removing long term under voltage, overvoltage and voltage imbalance to reduce waste and damage to the expensive equipment. It also removes voltage fluctuations, which can cause process variation, improving the quality of operation of the plant or the facility.

Reduce costs and protect your equipment

• The PCS100 AVC-40 closes the electrical compatibility gap between the supply and plant by protecting the load from utility induced voltage sag events. The PCS100 AVC-40 minimizes the undue stress to the equipment within a facility, thus increasing the lifetime of the equipment and protecting it against long term undervoltage, overvoltage or voltage imbalances.
