Electric devices or electronic systems with a poor power factor draw more electricity from the grid than operationally necessary. That costs money and, in the worst case, jeopardize the operational reliability of power grids and critical infrastructure.
At ebm‑papst, we have been countering this problem for many years with active power factor correction (PFC). This technology is integrated into our EC fans and works to prevent interfering harmonic components and stop reactive power.
As a result, your systems will run much more efficiently and reliably. Allowing components for the energy and emergency power supply can be scaled down. Benefit from energy in top form!
