  • Page 10 Power Factor Controller RVC-L-V1.4 COSφ: target power factor from 0.5ind (inductive) to 0.5CAP (capacitive). Delay time: switching delay time, 1.00~99.99 seconds. Overvoltage: Voltage upper limit, system voltage exceeds the limit capacitor will be removed. Harmonic overvoltage: the upper limit of the total distortion rate of voltage harmonics, and the capacitor is removed when the harmonics exceed the limit.
