Electric Reactor

Inductive reactors:
Iron core reactors: 

• Versatile: Provides inductive current control, manages reactive power, and filters harmonics.
• Enhanced Magnetic Properties: The core is constructed of laminated iron or steel, significantly enhancing magnetic properties.
• Compact Design: Offers higher inductance, making it suitable for high-current and high-voltage applications.
• Wide Applications: Widely used in various industries, utilities, and renewable energy applications.

Air-core reactors: 

• Functions: Current limiting, harmonic filtering, and power factor correction.
• Material: Made of non-magnetic materials such as air or epoxy-impregnated fiberglass.
• Supporting Structure: Constructed of copper or aluminum windings supported by an aluminum structure, environmentally friendly and low-maintenance.
• Connection Point: Connects to the neutral point of a three-phase system to control fault current.

Capacitive reactors:
Capacitor-bank reactors: 

• Power Factor Correction: Improves power factor and reduces energy consumption.
• Voltage Support: Provides reactive power and stabilizes voltage levels.
• Power Loss Reduction: Reduces losses in the power system.
• Renewable Energy Integration: Helps integrate renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind power) into the power grid.

Thyristor-controlled reactors (TCRs): 

• It is essentially a shunt reactor that provides the necessary reactive power management and controls the absorption of reactive power.

Line tuning reactors:

• Increase the impedance of the circuit, reduce harmonic distortion, limit current surges, and protect sensitive equipment from voltage spikes.

Neutral grounding reactors:

• It is used to limit the magnitude of ground fault current in three-phase power systems.
• Reduce transient overvoltage and third harmonic current, and enhance system stability.

Current-limiting reactors:

• Limit short-circuit current, protect equipment from damage, and enhance system stability.

Smoothing reactors:

• Improve the overall reliability and stability of the rectifier system.
• Reduce the risk of voltage fluctuations and interference.
• Improve power quality, extend the service life of connected equipment, and minimize maintenance requirements.

Arc suppression reactors:

• Specifically designed to mitigate single-phase-to-ground faults, reducing fault current and causing the arc to self-extinguish.
• Significantly reduces overvoltage and protects equipment by limiting transient energy.

Shunt reactors:

• Absorbs reactive power and improves system energy efficiency.
• Used for reactive power compensation in long-distance, high-voltage transmission lines and cable systems.

Series reactors:

• Used to increase impedance, limit short-circuit current, and control load balance between parallel lines.

Transformer inrush current limiting reactors:

• Specifically designed to address the damage caused by surge currents to systems.
• Protect sensitive equipment from damage.
• Maintain equipment stability.
