Industrial Electrical Power Quality Solutions

At Alachine Industrial Company, we understand that power is more than electricity — it’s the backbone of your operation. In industrial environments, even minor electrical disturbances can lead to costly downtime, damaged equipment, and lost production.

Our industrial power quality products are designed to keep your systems stable, efficient, and running at peak performance.

What is Industrial Power Quality

Industrial power quality refers to the reliability and stability of electrical power in industrial facilities. It focuses on maintaining correct voltage, frequency, waveform, phase balance, and power factor so that equipment operates efficiently and without damage. When any of these factors are compromised, it can negatively impact motors, automation systems, PLC’s, drives, and other critical equipment.

Common Power Quality Issues We Address

  • Temporary dips (sags) or increases (swells) in voltage caused by:

    • Large motor starts

    • Utility disturbances

    • Short circuits or faults

    Even brief sags can trip VFDs, PLCs, and sensitive automation systems.

  • Modern equipment such as VFDs, welders, and UPS systems introduce harmonics (electrical noise) into the system.

    Effects include:

    • Transformer overheating

    • Nuisance breaker tripping

    • Excess neutral current

    • Reduced power factor

  • High-frequency voltage spikes caused by:

    • Switching operations

    • Lightning

    • Fault clearing

    These spikes can damage control boards and electronic equipment instantly.

  • UUneven voltage across three-phase systems can cause:

    • Motor overheating

    • Reduced torque

    • Premature motor failure

    Even a 2–3% imbalance can significantly shorten motor life.

  • Low power factor results in:

    • Higher utility penalties

    • Increased current draw

    • Reduced system efficiency

Why Industrial Facilities Choose Alachine Industrial Company

  • Minimized Downtime

  • Extended Equipment Lifespan

  • Lower Maintenance Costs

  • Improved System Efficiency

  • Reduced Energy Waste

  • Increased Operational Liability

SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER UTILITY COSTS!!

The cost of poor power quality often exceeds the cost of prevention. Industrial environments rely heavily on large motors, CNC machinery, automation systems, robotics, welding and fabrication equipment, HVAC systems, etc. Power drives almost an entire industrial facility and power disturbances can halt production, damage equipment, and create costly downtime.

Alachine Industrial Company and the Universal Shunt Efficiency System - USES combines to reduce the effects of poor quality industrial power supply. Let’s schedule your appointment today!
