Municipal Services

Services like water supply, wastewater treatment, light rail, rapid transit and others can all benefit from power conditioning. Motors for pumps, fans, compressors, HVAC, etc. overheat and fail unexpectedly when voltage levels are too low, and the controls for these devices can fail in short order when the voltage is too high. The total costs to the community cannot be measured simply in maintenance dollars but in lost commerce and the health and welfare of the citizens.

For example, ultraviolet systems used for drinking water disinfection can be sensitive to voltage levels and to deep, but very short duration, drops in voltage known as voltage sags. The problem with this is that the ultraviolet system may take 5 to 10 minutes to restart. A voltage regulator or voltage sag correction unit can minimize or eliminate this costly problem.

MODERN manufactures power quality devices for ultraviolet disinfection systems and a broad range of other municipal services applications.
