Description
VP10 has 400 V capacitors and VP20 has 460 V capacitors, and the higher rating gives a larger voltage margin in a network with raised voltage or harmonics. The dielectric is PLUS metallized polypropylene with a high gradient, which withstands more load per unit of thickness. The VP40 version is made for 480 V, 60 Hz networks. The range covers the fixed units SUPERriphaso and MICROfix and the automatic MICROmatic and MINImatic. The IP55 version is chosen for dusty and damp rooms where an ordinary cabinet is not suitable.
How to choose
The choice starts with the harmonic level. For VP10 and VP20 the permissible THDIR is not above 27 %, so the units suit networks with moderate distortion. If frequency converters operate in the node, switch to the detuned FV25 and FV35 or to FH20 and FH30 with reactors. For clean networks with a low harmonic level there is the HP10, HP20 and HP30 series. Take VP10 for a capacitor rating of 400 V and VP20 for 460 V.

FAQ
How does VP10 differ from VP20?
By the capacitor rating. In VP10 they are rated for 400 V, and in VP20 for 460 V.
What THDIR do VP10 and VP20 units allow?
Not above 27 %. With greater distortion, detuned units with reactors are needed.
Is there a version for dusty workshops?
Yes, IP55 cabinets are intended for harsh operating conditions.
What voltage and frequency are VP10 and VP20 intended for?
For 400–415 V, 50 Hz. The VP40 version is made for 480 V, 60 Hz.
What capacitors are used in VP units?
PLUS capacitors made of metallized polypropylene with a high gradient.
