Schneider Electric BLRCH104A125B40 VarPlus Can HDuty 10.4/12.5 kvar 400 V Power Factor Correction Capacitor

The Schneider Electric BLRCH104A125B40 is a VarPlus Can HDuty power factor correction capacitor rated 10.4 kvar at 400 V, 50 Hz (12.5 kvar at 60 Hz), built for networks with up to 20% harmonic content where the circulating harmonic current requires an increased rated current capacitor rather than a standard-duty unit. Fastening is by clamptite terminal.

Selection Notes

Match the BLRCH104A125B40 to the switchboard's nominal voltage (400 V) and the reactive power step the correction bank needs -- 10.4 kvar at 50 Hz, 12.5 kvar at 60 Hz. Its 380-415 V rated-voltage band covers 400 V boards and nearby 380/415 V variants with one SKU, at the same 75 mm can size as the 440 V BLRCH100A120B44. The 1.8 x In continuous overcurrent capacity and <=20% permissible network harmonic content make HDuty construction the right choice where variable-speed drives or other non-linear loads circulate harmonic current; on a clean network a VarPlus Can SDuty unit would be the lower-cost alternative.
