Reactive Power Control Systems - Efficient Solutions for Your Energy Usage.
Our reactive power control systems are your ideal solution for compensating reactive power and minimizing grid feedback. With ready-to-connect systems in floor-standing or wall-mounted cabinets and a user-friendly plug & play controller concept, we enable easy commissioning and reliable grid optimization.
Our systems are suitable for networks with harmonics in choked design, as well as for harmonic-free networks in unchoked design. They meet the requirements of DIN EN 61000-2-4 Class 2 and are excellent for central compensation in loaded networks.
Areas of application:
Our reactive power control systems are used wherever unwanted reactive power leads to power restrictions or network feedback causes problems.
Your benefits at a glance:
- Easy installation: Thanks to plug & play, installation errors are minimized.
- Individually customizable: Control behavior and performance can be flexibly adjusted to your requirements.
- Tailor-made solutions: We develop special concepts for your individual needs.
- Flexible use: Available as a floor-standing cabinet or wall-mounted enclosure.
- High degree of protection: Optional protection class IP 55.
- Individual performance: 100 - 500 kVAr per cabinet, expandable by additional cabinets.
- Custom solutions: Tailored adjustments for specific requirements.
Everything from a single source
From the initial consultation through planning to delivery, installation, and maintenance - at SCHMACHTL, we offer you a comprehensive range of services.

- Natus (Energon)
- Eaton (xEnergy, MODAN)
- And many more
Reactive Power Controller - Precise control for your reactive power compensation.
Our reactive power controllers guarantee you an efficient and universal solution for reactive power compensation. They automatically adjust themselves to the connected compensation system and the network to be compensated.
With the patented control characteristic, the setpoint of the power factor cos φ is precisely regulated, thus avoiding overcompensation at light load. These controllers reduce reactive power costs and decrease the risk of grid disturbances.
Our reactive power controllers are suitable for various industries and can be flexibly adapted to your requirements.
Your benefits at a glance:
- High Precision: Our controllers reliably operate even in networks heavily loaded with harmonics.
- Detect Grid Feedback: Quickly and safely identify grid feedback in systems with self-generated power.
- Gentle Operation: Extend the lifespan of your compensation system as a result.
- Innovative Technology: Benefit from our patented control behavior for maximum efficiency.
- Universal Applicability: Our controllers adapt optimally to any network environment and application.
- Scalable Outputs: With 6- or 12-step output contacts (relays).
- Modern Interfaces: Optional MODBUS RTU, soon also available as MODBUS TCP/IP with network interface.
- Versatile Measurement Options: Selectable single-phase or three-phase measurement.
- Integrated Monitoring: With optional I/O module and temperature monitoring (PTC or PT100).
- Certified Safety: Also available with UL certification.
- Flexible Operation: Optional supply voltage of 230 V or 400 V.
Power Capacitors - The heart of reactive power compensation.
Our power capacitors form the basis for efficient reactive power compensation - whether as fixed capacitors or in control systems. With our quality "Made in Germany", we guarantee the highest operational safety and durability.
Each of our capacitors is uniquely identifiable by an individual serial number. This provides you with insight into production-relevant data and the test and measurement results of the piece inspection. Our four safety levels ensure that your system operates reliably and safely.
Choose between the variants Basic, Standard, Premium, or Heavy Duty – we assist you in finding the optimal solution for your application.
Our power capacitors are suitable for a wide range of industries and various requirements.
Your benefits at a glance:
- Maximum Security: The self-healing effect reliably protects your system.
- Protection and Efficiency: The segmented film provides additional security and optimized performance.
- Increased System Security: The overpressure tear-off protection prevents damage and improves operational safety.
- Technologically Advanced: Our patented contact ring technology replaces solder joints and ensures durable connections.
- Suitable for single-phase or three-phase networks
- Power range: 5 - 40 kVAr
- Voltage range: 230 - 690 V
- Available with UL certification
- Optionally with matched filter circuit chokes
