Farnell’s power film capacitors are designed for demanding power electronics and high-frequency applications. Featuring a durable film dielectric, these capacitors offer high reliability, stable capacitance, and excellent current-handling capabilities, making them ideal for long-lasting performance.
With low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) and low self-inductance (ESL), power film capacitors minimize power loss and ensure efficient energy storage. They can handle high voltage and surge currents, making them perfect for applications that require minimal aging and extended service life.
Applications of Power Film Capacitors:
- Power Electronics and Renewable Energy Systems:** Ideal for smoothing and filtering inverters in solar, wind, and fuel cell systems, thanks to their high capacitance and ripple current tolerance.
- Motor Drives and Power Supplies: Their stability and high-current capability make them a preferred choice for motor drives and power supplies.
- Safety and EMI Suppression: These capacitors are effective in electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression, and serve as safety and snubber capacitors in electronic circuits.
- Medical and Industrial Applications: Used in high pulse current systems like X-ray machines and pulsed lasers, providing reliable energy storage.
Farnell’s power film capacitors come in various capacitance, voltage ratings, and terminal styles, including screw-type terminals for high-current applications. They offer an efficient, reliable alternative to traditional electrolytic capacitors in high-power applications.
