Cylindrical Type - Industrial PFC Capacitors

  • The Neuron PFC Capacitor is a well proven and reliable MPP (metalized polypropylene) capacitor series for AC current applications.
  • The power range varies from0.5 to 50 kvar and 0.7 to 6.0 kvar per single capacitor can, depending on a three-phase or single-phase capacitor design.
  • The Indcap-C capacitor is especially intended for power factor correction in industrial and semi-industrial applications.
  • The capacitors are manufactured using metalized polypropylene film as dielectric and housed in a cylindrical aluminum case.

Features Electrical

  • Up to 50 kvar per case for three-phase applications
  • Up to 6 kvar per case for single-phase applications
  • Long useful life, 100 000 hours
  • High pulse current with- stand capability (200 * IR)

Mechanical & Maintenance

  • Reduced mounting costs, easy installation and connection
  • Low weight and compact volume
  • Maintenance-free

Safety

  • Self-healing Overpressure disconnector
  • Isolated terminal (IP20)

Environment

  • Non-polluting, environment friendly product
  • PCB-free

Applications

  • Power factor correction (PFC) for Agriculture Pumps
  • Automatic capacitor banks (capacitor banks)
  • Fixed PFC applications,e.g. motor compensation AC power electronics Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)
  • Drive engineering
  • De-tuned PFC systems
