Air Core Reactors

Phoenix Electric is a leader in the design and manufacture of air core reactors for utility and industrial applications. With a conservative design approach, our reactors generally run cooler than the competition – improving safety and product life. In addition, our use of higher performance wire & cable means expensive dielectric testing is typically not required. Phoenix provides design support and project management to our customers and is frequently called on to handle rush orders.

CURRENT LIMITING REACTORS

Current limiting reactors are used in reactive power compensation as well as to protect older equipment from higher fault currents as the power grid grows. PEC designs and manufactures current limiting reactors for both utility and industrial systems up to 200 KV.

KEY FEATURES

Single and three phase designs

Indoor or outdoor installation

System voltage from 480 V to 200 kV

Continuous current from 30 A to 4000 A

Aluminum or Copper wire coils

Single or multi-tap inductance

Designed to industry standards such as IEEE C57.16

Available Options

Reactor stands

Corona rings

Protective enclosures

Custom bus work

TRANSIENT LIMITING REACTORS

Transient limiting reactors limit momentary inrush and outrush current spikes when shunt connected capacitors are turned on. PEC designs and manufactures transient limiting reactors for capacitor applications up to 550 kV.
