POLYPROPYLENE FILM CAPACITORS

Polypropylene film capacitors have superior electrical characteristics compared to polyester film capacitors.

The main features of Polypropylene film capacitors are as follows:

  • very low dissipation factor over a wide frequency range
  • excellent insulation resistance
  • excellent dielectric strength
  • good resistance to humidity
  • outstanding stability with regard to operating temperature and frequency
  • excellent long-term stability
  • outstanding self-healing properties



Polypropylene film capacitors are generally used in AC and pulse applications at high frequencies. They are also used as DC-Link capacitors, in switched mode power supplies (SMPS), electronic ballasts and snubber applications, frequency discrimination and filter circuits as well as in energy storage, and sample and hold applications.

POWER CAPACITORS

Polypropylene film is widely used for power capacitors, providing high performance, efficiency and reliability in a wide range of applications. Typical power capacitor applications range from industrial drives and green energy systems (wind, solar, etc.) to uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and lasers for medical engineering.
