Commissioning of two synchronous condensers and harmonic filters.

Scope of supply included harmonic filters and controller, two brushless synchronous condenser systems comprised of 20-megavolt ampere synchronous motors, distribution transformers, frequency converters, excitation and protection panels as well as chiller systems.

ABB’s synchronous condensers will ensure accurate and dynamic power factor compensation for safe and reliable mine operation at this remote location. By integrating synchronous condensers and harmonic filters the harmonics are mitigated and short circuit levels improved, thus optimizing Antapaccay’s productivity and energy efficiency.
