State-of-the-Art K Factor Transformer Manufacturer Offering Top Quality at Wholesale Prices

K Factor

A K factor is a rating or value that is used to determine just how much harmonic electrical current any transformer is capable of handling without going over a maximum temperature rise.  Many of the new solid state devices that have appeared in the industry today have created major problems for engineers due to harmonics.  K factor transformers have been designed to deal with these harmonics loads.  TEMCo carries a full line of K factor transformers from some of the top manufacturers.  You can always count on TEMCo to provide and deliver the best K factor transformers that are available at the most competitive prices.

What is K Factor?

When we speak of K factor, we are speaking about the rating the transformer is given by the ANSI/IEEEE C57.  This is a system that is derived of weighing just how much harmonic load electrical currents on a transformer can handle.  It should never exceed it's maximum temperature rise level.  We have found that harmonics will generate additional heat in the transformer, which could create possible overheating and maybe even start a fire.  Using a transformer that has a K factor will prevent this from happening and also increase the life of the transformer.  A transformer with a K factor works by using a double sized neutral conductor.  This conductor will either change the geometry of the conductor or multiple conductors for the coils.  You will see K factor used anywhere in which non-linear loads are present.  The values of K factor will range anywhere from 1 to 50.  Linear loads will use the K factor of 1 only and the range of K factor 50 is used for the most harshest harmonic environments.  The most typical K factor used is 13.  To be able to find the K factor that is needed, you will need to calculate your load and then find a K factor of equal or a higher value.  The K factor is more or less a way to deal with heat.  It does not deal with things like voltage distortion and efficiency. 

Common K Factor Ratings

K factor 1 - The applications for this type of K factor are, incandescent lighting, motors, motor generators that don’t have solid state drives and resistance heating. Not necessarily designed to handle any increased heating of harmonics in load current.
K factor 4 - Can accommodate four times the eddy current losses of a K 1 transformer. Used in HID lighting, welders, UPS with input filtering, PLC, solid state controls and induction heaters. Designed to handle such loads up to 100% of the normal 60Hz without overheating.
K factor 9 - This type of K factor will accommodate 163 percent of the harmonic loading that a K factor 4 transformer will.
➬ K factor 13 - The applications that use this K factor are, assembly line equipment, schools, UPS without input filtering and multiple receptacle circuits that are found in health care facilities. The K factor 13 can accommodate up to 200 percent harmonic loading of a K factor 4 transformer.
K factor 20, 30 and 40 - These transformers with this type of K factor are used generally in hospital operating rooms and critical care facilities. High tech data processing equipment will use a K factor of this type and sometimes they are seen being used in SCR variable speed drives. A K factor of this caliber can handle any excessive amounts of harmonic load current without overheating at all.
K factor 50 - This one is used in the most harshest environments to stop any overheating.

Benefits of K Factor

Designed to handle non-linear loads which are found in equipment in business environments
Reduce or eliminate heating problems with equipment and the power distribution systems
Preserve the life span of the transformer being used
Takes care of any high current in the neutral wire in the transformer
Stops blown fuses or breakers
UL 1561 standards are met
Minimize electrical noise along with double grounded electrostatic shielding
Low flux density wound core will reduce any saturation
Copper wiring which increase efficiency
