GCSS5580
STATIC SWITCH FOR POWER FACTOR
IMPROVEMENT APPLICATIONS
IP 20 construction
Compact design
High reliability
Soft switching
High working frequency
LINE VOLTAGE UP TO 525V
LOAD POWER UP TO 50kvar
The GCSS5580 is an anti-parallel-SCR-based static switch especially designed for power factor
improvement applications. Its main features are the soft turn-on which allows the insertion of the
capacitor bank without voltage or current transients and the capability to work at high frequency
allowing a better control on the power factor. The design is extremely compact an light weight.
