Residential KVAR Systems – Single Phase 200 Amp Panel Mount Units

KEC 1200
As the demand for power runs through your home, there is non-productive current (heat) that strains your home appliances and wiring. This heat is wasted energy that you are paying for. The KEC optimizes the power that comes into your home, allowing your appliances and equipment motors to operate more efficiently. This reduces heat (wasted electricity), which in turn lowers your electric bill, reduces the chance of fires, and increases the life of your appliances and motorized equipment.
- 8% or more realized in monthly savings
- 12-year warranty

Commercial KVAR Systems – Single or 3-Phase Panel & Custom Units
Today's commercial/industrial applications require looking beyond the traditional means of energy conservation and savings. For example, purchasing high efficiency motors to reduce energy costs are typically cost prohibitive. As the demand for power runs through your commercial setting, there is non-productive current (heat) that strains your equipment and wiring. The KEC optimizes the watts that come in, allowing the motors within the equipment to operate more efficiently. This reduces heat, lowers your electricity costs, reduces the chance of fires, and increases the life of your motorized equipment.
Some of the Commercial Benefits are:
- 8% or more realized in monthly savings
- 5-year warranty
- Investment return (typically 18 - 24 months or less)
- Reduced energy demand
- Decreased heat dissipation (extends life cycle) on motors
- Patented and UL/CSA listed product
- ROHS Compliant
- NASA Tested
- Cleaner & Greener Certified
