New company APQ will provide a host of power quality products and solutions, designed to improve harmonics and efficiency.

New company APQ will provide a host of power quality products and solutions, designed to improve harmonics and efficiency.

Industry veteran Gary Anderson, former President of Arteche PQ, has launched APQ, LLC to provide a range of electrical power products and services that save users money. APQ’s power quality products will mitigate harmonics and improve the quality and efficiency of power operations. The company will serve North America, building on the quality line of Arteche products, services, and technology.

Anderson has extensive experience in the engineering, application, and system integration of motor drives, power quality, harmonic mitigation, and electrical energy conservation. Anderson’s experience includes serving as president of Drive Source International (Dynamatic), VP of Sales and Marketing for TCI (Trans-Coil, Inc), and President of Perigon Systems (a motor drive system integrator).

Gary Anderson recently stated the new company’s goals: “APQ is committed to improving the electrical power quality of commercial, industrial, and utility systems, while saving energy and increasing the productive life of electrical systems and motors. Quality electrical power is a basic input for industrial production that lowers cost, reduces downtime, and increase equipment life.”

Although the company is in itself a new business, the entire Arteche PQ team joined Anderson to work for APQ. This team of veterans has over 100 years of combined experience in the industry, as well as an established group of sales representatives throughout the United States and Canada. APQ has a full line of proven low-voltage power quality products and services to assist in the analysis, development, and deployment of cost-effective solutions for power factor correction, harmonic mitigation, and other common power quality challenges.

APQ helps industries meet goals to achieve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse emissions caused by wasteful harmonic energy and low-power factor. APQ assists in safeguarding essential equipment, therefore extending its productive life. In addition, APQ also provides seminars on power quality (power factor and harmonics), power factor, harmonics, VFD power quality, simplified harmonic analysis, and power quality investment analysis.

Companies that improve their electrical power quality will increase their profits and competitiveness by lowering operating costs, reducing downtime, and increasing asset life. APQ guides customers step-by-step to improve power quality, protect equipment, and save money.
