Vishay Intertechnology introduces a new series of metallized polypropylene AC filtering film capacitors optimized for high humidity environments.
Vishay Roederstein MKP1847C AC Filtering devices withstand demanding temperature humidity bias (THB) testing —40C, 93 % relative humidity for 56 days at rated voltage —without altering their electrical characteristics.
- Designed to ensure extremely stable capacitance and ESR values over a long service life under harsh environmental conditions during operation
- Compared to previous-generation devices, the MKP1847C AC Filtering series offers higher humidity robustness at a lower cost, while maintaining the same footprint
Product Benefits:
- Withstand THB testing —40C, 93 % relative humidity for 56 days at rated voltage
- Wide capacitance range from 1 μF up to 70 μF, with tolerance down to +/-10 %
- Rated voltages of 230 VAC, 250 VAC, 275 VAC, 310 VAC, and 350 VAC
- Low self-inductance of < 1 nH per mm of lead spacing
- High peak current capabilities up to 750 A
- High RMS current up to 26 A
- Offered in a flame-retardant plastic case with a resin seal
- High operating temperature to +105C
Market Applications:
- Input and output filtering in UPS systems, renewable energy inverter grid interfaces, and welding equipment
Availability:
Samples and production quantities of the MKP1847C AC Filtering series are available now, with lead times of 12 weeks.
