Schneider Electric BLRCSM151A181B40 PowerLogic 15.1 kvar 400 V 1-Phase Power Factor Correction Capacitor

The Schneider Electric BLRCSM151A181B40 is a PowerLogic standard-duty power factor correction capacitor rated 15.1 kvar at 400 V AC, 50 Hz (18.1 kvar at 60 Hz), for single-phase circuits in networks with low harmonic pollution. It is built for indoor installation and sized for continuous operation at up to 1.8 times rated current.

Selection Notes

This single-phase PowerLogic unit covers the smaller end of the EasyLogic SDuty step range — pick the kvar rating that matches the measured single-phase reactive deficit rather than the nearest three-phase bank, since mixing step sizes across phases on an unbalanced single-phase load is what the M-series line exists to correct. It is a standard-duty (SDuty) design for stable networks without significant non-linear loads; where harmonic-generating single-phase loads are present, a detuned-reactor heavy-duty capacitor is needed instead.
