General Information
Because of the leading contacts, the inrush current spikes (reverse charging
operations) are limited or damped by resistance wires. These current spikes would
lead to welding of the contactor’s main contacts and they are also harmful for the
capacitors. Reduction of the inrush currents also avoids transients and voltage sags.
Leading contacts with a wiper function are used in these capacitor contactors, is each
leading contact is linked to the contactor yoke by a permanent magnet. The leading
contacts close before the main contacts and open when the main contacts are with
certainty closed. This feature of the capacitor contactors guarantees effective, stable
operation throughout useful life. The single controlled leading contacts also enhance
resistance to soiling during operation.
The capacitor contactors are suitable for direct switching of low-inductance and
low-loss capacitor banks (IEC 831,VDE 0560)with or without detuning reactors. They
feature leading auxiliary switches and damping resistors to reduce peak inrush to<70*
Iin (inrush current). The capacitor contactors are weld inrush current of 200* Iin. The
backup fuses gL (gG) should be scaled for 1.6 to 1.8* Iin all capacitor contactors come
with an auxiliary contact (normally open).

FRANKE GMKP has founded successful corporation with famous brands and manufacturer
all over the world. Because of FRANKE GMKP does strongly work to keep and improve a
German Quality level, we were selected by international renowned companies (like ABB,
Siemens, and LS) for using our products.
Beside the world famous brands, FRANKE GMKP is partner of major projects like (Olympic
projects, diversion, DC input Electricity, etc.).Moreover FRANKE is supplier of many famous
foreign brand-capacitor manufacturers for their (OEM) production of capacitors. In addition
to our capacitor manufacturing FRANKE GMKP ENERGY CONTROL provides a wide range
of products for power factor correction (PFC), such like:
MV capacitors MV reactors Capacitor banks of automatic step, pole mounting, open racks
