Vishay Intertechnology’s New Screw-Terminal Aluminum Capacitors Offer High Capacitance / Voltage Combinations in Smaller Case Sizes
November 30 2022 - 11:00AM
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced a new
series of screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitors that
allow designers to pack more energy storage into less space.
Available in 11 case sizes ranging from 35 mm by 60 mm to 90 mm by
220 mm, the Vishay BCcomponents 202 PML-ST series offers high
capacitance / voltage (CV) values in smaller case sizes than
previous-generation solutions while providing increased ripple
current to 49.6 A, lower ESR down to 2 mΩ, and a long useful life
of 10 000 h at +85 °C.
Featuring a cylindrical aluminum case insulated with a blue
sleeve and pressure relief in their sealing disc, the electrolytic
capacitors released today provide high CV combinations from
56 000 µF at 200 V to 15 000 µF at 450 V. For
example, a CV rating of 2200 µF / 400 V — previously available
in the 65 mm by 105 mm case size — is now available in the smaller
50 mm by 105 mm case size. For CV ratings with a similar case size
to previous-generation solutions, the capacitors offer improved
ripple current and ESR. For example, a CV rating of 4700 µF / 400 V
offers 12 % higher ripple current and 16 % lower ESR.
As polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitors with a non-solid
electrolyte, the RoHS-compliant devices are ideally suited for
filtering, buffering, and energy storage in pulsed power
applications with a required lifetime of 10 to 15 years. Typical
end products include industrial motor drives; rail traction for
trains and subways; welding equipment, HVAC, and UPS; wind turbines
and solar power inverters; and medical X-ray equipment.
