Our company, KMB systems, s.r.o is since 1991 developing electronic equipment for industrial automation and energetics. Recently we offer complete line of power factor controllers NOVAR, broad range of portable or panel/DIN bar mountable meters SM and SIMON and other special devices. Our portfolio is broadened continuously to provide solutions to our customers. 

NOVAR: Power Factor Correction

NOVAR represents a family of power factor controllers and its accessories. It is designed to be reliable, precise and easy to operate in all possible power factor control situations. For classical PFC applications the NOVAR 1000 line for regular response times can be chosen. The NOVAR 1312 with fast control responses times supports thyristor switched capacitors for fast operation. We have developed fast thyristor switches (SSR) KATKA. We also deliver regular switches, compensation capacitors, chokes and other switchgear equipment. With remote communication option (RS485, Ethernet) the NOVAR PFC supports data colection and processing with the ENVIS software.

Power quality analyzers and energy efficiency monitors

Our line of power analyzers covers all the typical needs for energy management systems from bottom to top. We provide a broad range of meters from simple meters without memory and automation {error "no unique content found"} to fully equipped analysers  for continuous power quality evaluation. Our meters optionaly provide capabilities for remote data acquisition and evaluation in ENVIS  application. Their input-output capabilities allow them to perform several automated control functions such as simple load management etc. The SIMON product line complements the offering with a range of portable analysers for temporary measurements anywhere in the grid.

ENVIS: Recording and Analysis of Measurement Archives   

ENVIS application represents a solution for a flexible and transparent energy management system. It can also evaluate collected data in respect to power quality compliance. It supports data colection from ouyr instruments (SM, SIMON, NOVAR) as well as some thirdparty energy meters with ModBus or M-Bus interfaces. Data acquisition can be performed over various communication interfaces such as RS485, Ethernet, GPRS or wireles. For data storage the SQL Server databases can be used  and mined later for post-event analysis. System can also automaticaly detect noncomliant situations and distribute alarms to the responsible stakeholder in form of email, SMS or over SNMP protocol. Standard version of ENVIS is provided free of charge with all our supported instruments and allows the configuration, manual data acquisition and basic data processing. Data from ENVIS can be exported to vcarious files such as CEA, PQDIF, XLS, CSV or PDF.

Other Instruments and Services

Besides the main lines of products we also develop other solutions for automation and power industry. In cooperation with Technical University in Liberec we are developing and manufacturing  transformer electronics solution for reliable and fluent operation of transformers like the patented TrafoSTART soft starter, communication converters ES 101 and KMGPRS modem. INKA line of instruments detects and helps to find the location of failures on voltage (such as ground connection and line conections) in overhead distribution lines.

With our expertise, apliances and experiences we are also able to help our customers detect, analyse and improve their power quality on a per project basis, consult the design of certain power factor correction gear etc. Fur such inquiries, do not hesitate to contact our technical support.
