Power Factor Correction (PFC)
Power Factor Correction (PFC) technology improves how amplifiers draw electrical current, aligning current flow closely with voltage and bringing the power factor closer to 1. Energy savings reach up to 40% reduction in power consumption.
How does Power Factor Correction work?
- PFC stage — a Power Factor Correction stage reduces wasted energy carrying currents through conductors, reduces the mains capability needs, increases the overall system efficiency and reduces the amplifier power performance’s dependency on mains variability and sizing.
- Regulatory compliance — meets global harmonic current standards.
Key facts
- Brings the power factor closer to 1 by aligning current flow closely with voltage.
- Energy savings: up to 40% reduction in power consumption.
- Meets global harmonic current standards.
What are the advantages of PFC?
- Energy savings — up to 40% reduction in power consumption.
- Infrastructure efficiency — smaller generators and cabling requirements lower operational complexity and costs.
- Cleaner power usage — enhances overall system stability, benefiting connected audio and electronic equipment.
