The present invention refers to a
system for streamlining energy efficiency, for application in cooling equipment compressors. Said
system has at least a main circuit of the frequency
inverter (10) and an
electric energy power source (FAC) electrically associated to each other. The main circuit of the frequency
inverter (10) comprises at least a wave
rectifier (4). In addition, the main circuit of the frequency
inverter (10) comprises at least a
bus capacitor (CB), electrically associated in parallel to the wave
rectifier (4) and to the compressor, electrically chargeable by a
charge current. Additionally, the main circuit of the frequency inverter (10) comprises at least a passive component (P), electrically associated to the wave
rectifier (4), capable of reducing a
charge current of the
bus capacitor (CB) and / or attenuating the
harmonic content of an input current coming from the
electric energy power source (FAC). Said
system comprises at least a means of obtaining power in an input of the main circuit of the frequency inverter (10). Further, said system comprises at least a
control unit (3) operatively associated to the means for obtaining power. Said main circuit of the frequency inverter (10) is provided with an
active switch (K) electrically associable in parallel to the passive component (P), and the
control unit (3) is arranged so as to permit the drive of the
active switch (K) based on the power at the input of the main circuit of the frequency inverter (10). The present invention also refers to a method of streamlining energy efficiency, for application in cooling equipment compressors.
