The Schneider BLRCH125A150B48 is a robust and efficient heavy-duty capacitor from the VarPlus Can Series, designed to enhance power quality in industrial applications. Operating at a rated voltage of 480 V AC and compatible with both 50 Hz and 60 Hz network frequencies, this capacitor offers a reactive power rating of 12.5 kvar at 50 Hz and 15 kvar at 60 Hz. It is engineered to handle network harmonic content up to 20%, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments. The capacitor features a metallized polypropylene film dielectric with a Zn/Al alloy, providing low dielectric losses of less than 0.2 W/kvar and power losses under 0.5 W/kVAr. Its compact design, with a diameter of 90 mm and a height of 242 mm, allows for versatile installation options, either upright or horizontal. The BLRCH125A150B48 is suitable for indoor use, with a durable construction that meets IEC 60831-1 and IEC 60831-2 standards, and offers an IP20 degree of protection. With a service life of up to 130,000 hours and the ability to withstand up to 7,000 switching operations per year, this capacitor is an ideal choice for maintaining efficient and stable power systems.
