Applications
From the most demanding environments, such as mining or steelmaking, to the evolving landscape of renewable energy, every Enerlux product is designed to address the specific challenges and operational requirements of its target sector. One of Enerlux Power’s key strengths lies in its ability to tackle power factor correction and harmonic filtering in complex industrial settings.
Power factor correction systems and harmonic filters for the mining industry are designed to compensate for and filter harmonics generated by the drives of massive loads in mines. The range includes highly specialised solutions for on-board compensation in large excavators, designed to operate in extreme environmental conditions, ensuring energy efficiency and operational continuity even in the most demanding scenarios.
For the oil and gas sector, Enerlux develops systems dedicated to compensating reactive energy generated by large-scale pumping systems in refineries and extraction plants. The company’s solutions include both low- and medium-voltage automatic regulation systems, capable of dynamically adapting to the load variations typical of these industrial processes. This ensures optimised energy consumption and extended equipment lifespan.
For power transformers, Enerlux designs dedicated power factor correction systems for the compensation of large HV/MV transformers used for energy transformation and distribution in substations. The offering includes various configurations with protection ratings from IP00 to IP54, equipped with all necessary control and protection components—including switches, disconnectors, relays and other integrated control devices—delivered as compact, reliable solutions.
For laboratories and research centres, Enerlux produces a wide range of capacitors for test facilities, suitable for both AC and DC applications. The portfolio includes complete high-voltage systems specifically designed for the compensation of current during large power transformer testing, contributing to the accuracy and reliability of testing procedures.
Power factor correction and harmonic filtering systems for the paper industry are specifically designed to compensate for and filter the harmonics generated by high-power motor drives used in paper mills. These solutions play a significant role in stabilising the internal power grid, reducing energy losses and preventing malfunctions in the sensitive control systems that characterise modern paper production processes.
For the cement industry, Enerlux Power offers systems designed to compensate for and filter harmonics generated by high-load drives such as drying lines, raw mills, coal mills and clinker conveyors. The solutions are designed to withstand the challenging environmental conditions typical of cement plants, including dust, vibration and heat, ensuring optimal performance and durability.
The systems for rolling mills are specifically designed to compensate for and filter harmonics generated by drives used in both hot and cold rolling processes. These solutions help mitigate the effects of significant load fluctuations, which are typical in rolling operations, and contribute to improved product quality by ensuring greater stability of electrical parameters throughout the process.
For the iron and steel industry, Enerlux develops comprehensive solutions that include power factor correction and harmonic filtering systems to address distortion caused by heavy loads, as well as arc and ladle furnaces. The range includes harmonic filters for various process lines, for Static VAR Compensators (SVC) and Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOM), capacitors for induction furnaces and specific RC filters for protecting EAF-LF transformers. These systems are designed to meet the demanding needs of one of the most energy-intensive industrial sectors.
In the renewable energy sector, Enerlux Power designs power factor correction systems and harmonic filters specifically tailored to compensate for and filter harmonics generated by photovoltaic and wind power plants. These solutions are essential for improving the quality of energy fed into the grid, meeting the increasingly strict requirements of grid operators, and maximising the overall efficiency and energy yield of renewable energy plants.
Power Factor Correction Systems and Harmonic Filters for the Hydrogen Industry are specifically engineered to optimize energy-intensive production processes in the hydrogen value chain. They effectively compensate reactive power and filter the significant harmonic distortions generated by hydrogen production technologies, thereby reducing energy consumption and enhancing overall plant efficiency. In doing so, we contribute to making the hydrogen supply chain more competitive and economically sustainable, supporting the transition toward this future-forward energy carrier—abundantly available on Earth, easily sourced, and producible virtually anywhere with the appropriate infrastructure.
