Many of the loads in the port terminal are repetitive short-time working system (frequent starting/braking, positive/reverse rotation, rising/falling), and the load current, power and power factor change rapidly and greatly. Therefore, the reactive compensation device must be able to switch quickly, closely follow the reactive demand of the load, and achieve the role of improving the power factor and stabilizing the grid voltage. At the same time, with the development of power electronics technology, in recent years, the equipment used in domestic ports generally adopts thyristor powered DC system or AC-AC frequency conversion speed regulation system, and the number is increasing year by year. These electric energy conversion devices and their electrical equipment belong to nonlinear electrical equipment and are typical harmonic sources. When this kind of equipment works, it not only absorbs a large amount of impulsive reactive power to the power system, but also affects the voltage stability of the power grid. Moreover, a large number of harmonics are injected into the power grid, which seriously affects the power quality of the power grid. Therefore, in the power grid system of the port area, effective measures must be taken to improve the power quality. The use of reactive power compensation and harmonic treatment devices can effectively improve the power factor and reduce harmonics, eliminate the pollution of the power grid, improve the power supply capacity of the power grid, and provide high-quality power for equipment.

The SFR-APF series active power filter cabinet is a new type of power electronic device used for dynamic harmonic filtering. It can filter out harmonics (both in size and frequency) in real time, overcome the shortcomings of traditional filters in harmonic suppression and reactive power compensation, and achieve the harmonic filtering function and reactive power compensation function of the system. It is particularly suitable for situations with high harmonic content, low power factor, and large load fluctuations, and is widely used in ports, metallurgy, petroleum, chemical, and industrial and mining enterprises.
