MINI SUN POWER SAVER

Organisations today demand more energy to power an increasing array of products and labour-saving devices in homes, schools, and workplaces. Energy saving and efficiency systems address our building energy consumption, and yield significant long-term financial rewards.

In line with our business focus, Mini Sun Marketing offers reliability and functionality through a range of energy efficiency systems that can meet the needs of an organisation.

Mini Sun Power Saver (MSPS) uses advanced German Electrical Technology to regulate your current supply and stabilizes the voltage, thus optimizing electrical consumption in electrical appliances and machineries in residential, commercial or industrial facilities. Simultaneously, it improves the “power factor” of your electrical supply and minimizes energy wastage in equipments that may be old, faulty or of inferior quality. Hence, it can significantly help reduce your monthly electrical expenses while protecting and prolonging the life span of your equipment investments.

To understand the energy needs of each business, an in-depth analysis on the power quality and condition is carried out at the business premise using the latest energy audit technology. Our qualified team of engineers at Mini Sun Marketing will be able to identify the business’ current energy needs and shortfalls and present how MSPS may make a difference in the business.

What is Power Factor and how it can impact our Electrical Bill?

Low power factor is expensive and inefficient. Many utility companies charge an additional fee if your power factor is less than 0.95. Low power factor also reduces your electrical system’s distribution capacity by increasing current flow and causing voltage drops.

Cause of Low Power Factor

Low power factor is caused by inductive loads (such as transformers, electric motors, and high-intensity discharge lighting), which are a major portion of the power consumed in industrial complexes. Unlike resistive loads that create heat by consuming kilowatts, inductive loads require the current to create a magnetic field, and the magnetic field produces the desired work. The total or apparent power required by an inductive device is a composite of the following:

• Real power (measured in kilowatts, kW)

• Reactive power, the nonworking power caused by the magnetizing current, required to operate the device (measured in kilovars, kVAR)

• Reactive power, required by inductive loads increase the amount of apparent power (measured in kilovolt amps, kVA) in your distribution system. The increase in reactive and apparent power causes the power factor to decrease.

Why Improve Your Power Factor?

Some of the benefits of improving your power factor are as follows:

• Your utility bill will be smaller. Low power factor requires an increase in the electric utility’s generation and transmission capacity to handle the reactive power component caused by inductive loads. Utilities usually charge a penalty fee to customers with power factors less than 0.95. You can avoid this additional fee by increasing your power factor.

·         Your electrical system’s branch capacity will increase. Uncorrected power factor will cause power losses in your distribution system. You may experience voltage drops as power losses increase. Excessive voltage drops can cause overheating and premature failure of motors and other inductive equipment.

Correcting Your Power Factor

Some strategies for correcting your power factor are:

• Use Mini Sun Power Saver

• Minimize operation of idling or lightly loaded motors.

• Avoid operation of equipment above its rated voltage

• Replace standard motors as they burn out with energy-efficient motors. Even with energy-efficient motors, however, the power factor is significantly affected by variations in load. A motor must be operated near its rated capacity to realize the benefits of a high power factor design.

• Install capacitors in your AC circuit to decrease the magnitude of reactive power.

How does MSPS Helps to prevent Surge and Spike?

Benefits of MSPS surge and spike protection include:

• Longer equipment life

• Less down-time of sensitive equipment

• Lower maintenance costs on equipment

Surges and spikes are individual one-time singularities in the voltage waveform, generally produced by specific events such as lightning strikes, switching transients and equipment starts, which can cause voltage variants many times the amplitude of the normal waveform. Studies have shown that up to 100 major transients per month occur on commercial distribution lines, and at least one report suggests that the total business cost of electrical transients each year is approximately $25 billion.

MSPS achieve surge and spike protection in less than 0.3 seconds.

How does MSPS helps to reduce Electrical noise?

Noise is an undesirable addition to the power voltage/current waveform.

MSPS units achieve noise suppression through four mechanisms:

• Primary power factor capacitors
• Smaller capacitors installed to provide low impedance to high frequency noise

• Filtering inductors
• Metal oxide varistors (MOVs), which provide surge suppression

Electrical noise, generally random in nature and generated by either external or internal sources, can be continuously generated or it can be the result of periodic disturbances in the environment through which the power is distributed. The different capacitances of the MSPS units effectively smooth out the incongruities of the power voltage/current waveform, and the filter circuit eliminates other noises. The resultant waveform provides less noise to the circuit. These factors combine to provide a stable power source for sensitive electronic equipment such as computers, audio-visual equipment and other machinery.

Harmonics are caused by any equipment which alters the voltage waveform or uses only a portion of the sine wave such as computers, switch-mode power supplies, variable frequency drives, and high efficiency electronic ballasts. Harmonic distortion is a steady-state problem, and is different from short-term effects such as spikes, sags or surges. Harmonics distort sine waves and can create excessive currents and oppose the normal flow of current through a motor, causing a reduction in its operating life. While no single generic solution can eliminate all harmonics in all situations, the Power filtration and capacitive system can often depress the magnitude of many harmonics problems, leading to a reduction in Total Harmonic Distortion (THD).

Noise filtration, when applicable from MSPS units result in benefits to you including:

• More efficient voltage waveforms, resulting in kW savings

• Longer motor life

• Lower currents on the neutral sine waves, resulting in safer operating conditions

• Better reception on audio-visual equipment

• Reduction in detrimental effects of noise-based interference and distortions
