WARRANTY CONDITIONS
The warranty conditions are set out in the sales contract;
in all other cases, the following conditions shall apply.
The manufacturer guarantees its product against any
manufacturing or operating faults caused by errors
in design, choice of materials or manufacture, in
accordance with the conditions set out below.
The manufacturer may - without prior notice – modify
its product in order to bring it into line with the warranty
conditions or replace defective parts.
The manufacturer's warranty shall not apply in the
following cases:
• Faults caused by designs or parts used without
consent, or supplied, by the buyer.
• Replacements or repairs resulting from normal wear
and tear of parts and equipment
• Damage or injury caused by negligence on the user's
part
• Insufficient maintenance or incorrect use of products.
• PFC system not adapted to the network.
The warranty's validity period is 12 months following
installation of the equipment, and may not exceed 18
months from the supply date.
Parts replacements, repairs or modifications carried out
by the manufacturer during the warranty period may
under no circumstances be grounds for extending the
length of the warranty period.
In order to benefit from this warranty, buyers must
expressly inform the manufacturer - within a maximum
of 8 days, beyond which the warranty shall expire – of
any faults in the design, materials or manufacture, giving
precise evidence to support their claim.
Defective parts replaced free of charge by the
manufacturer must be made available to the
manufacturer, as they remain its sole property.
The warranty shall not apply if the buyer has carried out
modifications or repairs to the manufacturer's products
without its prior consent.
The manufacturer's liability is limited to the obligations
described above (repairs or replacements); all other
types of damage shall be excluded.

GENERAL SAFETY AND USAGE
INSTRUCTIONS
a. This manual sets out the essential instructions relating
to safety, connection and use of the fixed PFC system.
b. This system must only be installed by specialist
personnel with the necessary skills.
c. The PFC system must be installed in a vertical
position.
d. The cable must be connected to earth before the
connections are made.
e. Do not expose the equipment to rain or splashes of
water.
f. Keep the enclosure clean using a dry cloth.
g. We recommend that you keep this manual in a place
which is accessible to all.
h. The maintenance and checking operations described
in the “Maintenance” paragraph on page 11 must be
carried out at least once every 12 months. Failure to
follow this instruction shall release Socomec from all
liability with regard to the incorrect operation of the
equipment and the consequences thereof.
i. The maintenance operations must only be carried out
by authorised personnel with the appropriate training.
j. This system satisfies the European Community
directives applicable to this product. This is indicated
by the following marking:
k. Compliance with standards CEI 61439-1/-2 and
EN 61439-1/-2.
The conditions set out below are likely to
cause operating faults and reduce the PFC
system's service life:
• Current, voltage and frequency which are not to
specification.
• The presence of harmonics.
• Operation or storage outside the temperature
limits.
• The use of switches without current limiting
resistors.
• Operation: where there are shocks or vibrations,
excessive or rapid temperature variations, or in
an explosive or corrosive environment.
• Installation at an altitude > 2,000 m or below sea
level.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
General points
Function
Construction
General characteristics
The equipment consists of a series of racks of capacitors
installed in an enclosure. Depending on the models,
other equipment may be present:
• anti-harmonic device.
• fuse combination switch.
COSYS fixed PFC system are designed to offset variable
reactive energy. Reactive energy may be consumed by a
factory or production unit.
• Power from 17.5 to 60 kvar.
• Harmonics from 0 to 100% in 4 stages: PFC21,
PFC22, PFC23, PFC24.
• Cable input at the bottom (can be the top if required).
• Base plate optional
• Thermal regulation with fan (depending on equipment).
• Self-healing capacitors.
• Capacitor cut off from the automatic circuit in case of
removal.
• Steel panel enclosure colour RAL 7035.
• IP rating IP20, IP30 depending on model.
• Rated voltage: 400 V three-phase.
• Rated frequency: 50 Hz.
• Operating temperature: -5°C to 40°C.
• Tolerance on capacitor capacity value: -5, +5%.
• Discharge device on each bank: < 50 V after 1 minute.
• Capacitor internal connection: delta.

INSTALLATION
Failure to follow the installation instructions contained in this manual may compromise the
operation and reliability of the PFC system.
Recommendations relating to installation conditions
Recommended operating temperature: between 15°C
and 35°C.
Relative humidity without condensation: 90% max.
Maximum operating altitude: 2,000 m
Take all necessary precautions to prevent splashes of
water, paint or other fluids.
The enclosure conforms to protection rating IP20.
It is essential to ensure that there is a clearance of 50cm
above the PFC system to allow adequate ventilation.
Connecting the input cables
The power is supplied to the terminals provided for this
purpose.
The power, control and measurement cables should be
connected in accordance with the standards in force
and good practice.
The cable bushing plate should be refitted after the cable
gland or other cable passage system has been fitted.
Failure to follow this instruction may seriously
compromise the ventilation efficiency, reduce the
cabinet's level of protection and cause the formation of
hazardous material or objects.
Upstream protection and connection cross section
The selection and co-ordination of the protection
devices upstream of the PFC system depend on the
nominal current and cable fitting conditions.
The protection devices upstream of the PFC system
must conform to the safety standards in force.
The cross section of the cables should be adapted to
the power of the fixed PFC system. Cables should be
selected according to the current values shown in the
table below, which should be increased by a coefficient
of 1.43 in accordance with CEI 60831-1.

Checking the equipment
Before commissioning the equipment, ensure that all
connections are correctly tightened, as the terminals
may become loose during transportation of the equip-
ment from the production plant to the site (switch).
Powering up
Once the operations in the previous paragraph have
been carried out, the equipment can be started by
closing the upstream panel protection and the PFC
system cabinet switch (depending on the model).
Maintenance
Routine maintenance of this equipment involves perio-
dically checking (at least once every year) the following
components:
• Auxiliary circuit fuses
• Capacitor fuses
• Cleanliness of the ventilation grille and the filter to
ensure proper ventilation of the enclosure
• Retightening of the terminals
• Visual inspection of the capacitors by replacing those
that are causing deforming of the upper part of the
outer enclosure.
COMMISSIONING AND MAINTENANCE
SOCOMEC can also offer:
•maintenance
•audit
•start-up
•training for your staff
