Type GEM OFW

AvailableRatings:240V 1-15kVAR480V 1-30kVAR These Type GEM capacitors are de-signed primarily for the motor requirements of oil field and other pumping installations. Their application, how- ever, may be extended to other motor applications installed indoor or outdoor. Type GEM OFW capacitors feature multiple cells which are assembled in parallel in a NEMA 3 enclosure. Each capacitor cell features the patented GE Pressure Sensitive Interrupter (PSI) that protects against cell rupture. The metallized polypropylene film dielectric system provides an instantaneous self-healing action and greatly reduced energy losses.Discharge resistors are included to reduce voltage to 50 volts or less within one minute of de-energization. A 4 ft., 4-conductorflexible cable is provided for easy installation.Type GEM capacitors offer high reliability and long life. They are suitable for operation over a temperature range of -40°C to+46°C. GEM also features Dielektrol impregnant which is a biodegradable Class IIIB combustible fluid.

Type EDT/EWT

AvailableRatings:240V 2.5-25kVAR480V 5-60kVAR 600V 5-60kVAR These film/foil capacitors are typi- cally used to replace PCB type capacitors in existing capacitor equipment and for severe duty environments. They feature the exclusive GE DIELEKTROL non-PCB impregnant, providing an environmentally acceptable substitute for Askarel with equivalent or superior product performance. Their heavy duty low loss conventional film dielectric system is designed to handle unusual overvoltages and overcurrents without reducing capacitor life. They are available with optional blown fuse indicating lights. These capacitors include discharge resistors to reduce voltage to 50 volts or less within one minute of de- energization.

Type FIXED - GEMTRAP

AvailableRatings:240V 25-200kVAR480V 25-400kVAR 600V 25-300kVAR FIXED - GEMTRAP Filter Banks should be considered when power factor correction is desired in a harmonic rich environment. Fixed banks are normally applied near the load(s) that are producing the harmonic distortion. The capacitors are connected in series withthe reactor and are tuned to the 4.7th (nominal 5th) harmonic to reduce the more severe 5th harmonic current in systems with largeamounts of 6 and 12 pulse non-linear loads present. Equipments for filtering other Harmonic frequencies are available.

Type AUTO-GEMTRAP

AvailableRatings:240V 75-600kVAR480V 150-1200kVAR 600V 150-1200kVAR GE AUTO-GEMTRAP Filter Banks should be considered when precise power factor cor- rection is desired in a harmonic rich environment. One installation of filter capacitor equipment at the main plant bus, minimizes time and cost as compared to individualfixed filters at the load. The multi-step controller will automatically maintain the desired power factor, adjusting to the system loadrequirements. The modular design consists of individual steps of capacitors connected in series with a reactor. It also allows forfuture expansion. Banks are tuned to the 4.7th (nominal 5th) harmonic to reduce the more severe 5th harmonic current in systems with large amounts of 6 and 12 pulse non-linear loads present. Equipments for filtering other Harmonic Frequencies are available.
