Hybrid Capacitor Contactor [UHC]

General

With patent electronic technologies, UHC is the latest generation of capacitor contactor in the world, includes two exclusive technologies presenting higher short time withstand current to 3000A and higher interrupting current to 800% rated continuous current. The most surprised invention in UHC contactors are Dual-Zero control technologies which provides Zero arc-voltage and Zero in-rush current during capacitors making or breaking operation. Traditional contactor will create in-rush current up to 1000% rated current to impact capacitor at each closing operation, capacitors shall eventually be punctured after few hundreds close-operation. Goodwell type UHC contactors are born to solve this engineer's headache being existed for years. With UHC - No any single in-rush current to impact capacitor! And an extra bonus - No any arc will attack main-contact surface at each opening operation of UHC!

Application

UHC contactor meets IEC Standard 60947-1 class AC-3 and AC-4 requirements. Working voltage from AC 220V, 440V 780V and up to 1350V, rated current from 40A, 60A, 80A, 100A, 125A, 160A, 200A up to 250A. UHC contactors are best choice to replace traditional silicone-control contactors where its major problems include over-voltage, harmonic and heat radiation not just shorten its own service life but also deteriorate capacitors life.

Features

• Life expectancy designed to 100,000 hours.
• Absolutely zero closing current and zero opening arcing voltage.
• Mechanical bridge contacts provide higher current ratings.
• Much smaller in size of thyristor due to its theoretically shortest by-pass time.
• No series reactor may be required in PFC application.
• No harmonic contamination occurred during operation.
• No temporary over voltage during contactors closing operation.
• Good for expulsion-proof application.
• Always provides 3 phases synchronized operation in making or breaking the contactor, free from phase unbalanced risk even under unskilled random operation of the contactor.
• Be a Green Energy user, consider this low power consumption, no coil-burn out, low contact resistance, protect your capacitor from surge current impact, protect contacts from arc corrosion, eventually to save bulk material from earth, by selecting this durable, reliable and unbeatable Hybrid Capacitor Contactor, UHC.

Theory of Operation

Thyristor by-pass the main-contact precisely at zero current or voltage wave angle, just a few millisecond after making or breaking signal received by the control circuit. Precise detection of the current and voltage difference is the key to get 100% control accuracy.
