How to choose a metallized film capacitor?
struction. Here’s how to choose. For a metallized film capacitor, the capacitor plates are aluminum sprayed onto the dielectric fi m by thin-film vacu-um deposition. Compared to making the capacitor with sep-arate foil and film sheets, met-allizing enables smaller size, lighter weight, lower cost per microfarad and self-healing, but it also
What is the dissipation factor of film/foil capacitors?
The dissipation factor for film/foil capacitors is lower than for metallized film capacitors, due to lower contact resistance to the foil electrode compared to the metallized film electrode. The dissipation factor of film capacitors is frequency-, temperature- and time-dependent.
How do you calculate the life of a film capacitor?
For the life of a film capacitor, the Mean Time To Failure(MTTF), which is calculated by the inverse of the failure rate, is used as the basis for the life calculation. If a capacitor is used at high temperatures, its service life will be shortened due to thermal deterioration.
What is the capacitance of a plastic film capacitor?
The film/foil variants of plastic film capacitors are especially capable of handling high and very high current surges. Typical capacitance values of smaller film capacitors used in electronics start around 100 picofarads and extend upwards to microfarads.
How to test a film capacitor?
For lowest production costs some film capacitors can be used “naked”, without further coating of the winding. Electrical final test — All capacitors (100%) should be tested for the most important electrical parameters, capacitance (C), dissipation factor (tan δ) and impedance (Z).
How many radial taped film capacitors can be taped?
The taping information is based on the international standard IEC 60286-2. Remark valid for all taped film capacitors, axial and radial, ammo and reel: for all taped film capacitors a maximum of 3 slices per 1000 pieces is permitted. 1.1. RADIAL POTTED FILM CAPACITORS (Dimensions in mm) 1.1.1.
