Medium Power Film Capacitors
FLB (RoHS Compliant)
The FLB series uses metallized polypropylene dielectric, aluminum can, impregnated with soft PU specially treated to
have a very high dielectric strength in operating conditions up
to 85°C.
The FLB has been designed with overpressure disconnected
device. They are suitable for power factor correction and output AC filtering for power converters, UPS systems, solar
inverters and motor drives etc.
APPLICATIONS
AC FILTERING
• The FLB capacitor is particularly designed for AC filtering
and power factor correction.
HOT SPOT CALCULATION
PACKAGING MATERIAL
See Hot Spot Temperature, page 75.
• Aluminum can with soft PU
STANDARDS
IEC 61071-1, IEC 61071-2: Power electronic capacitors
IEC 60831: Shunt power capacitors of selfhealing type for
ac systems having a rated voltage up to and
including 1kv
θhot spot = θambient + (Pd + Pt) x Rth
with Pd (Dielectric losses) = Q x tgδ0
Q x tgδ0 ⇒ [ 1⁄2 x Cn x (Vpeak to peak)2 x f ] x tgδ0
tgδ0 (tan delta)
For polypropylene, tgδ0 = 2 x 10-4 for frequencies
up to 1MHz and is independent of temperatures.
Pt (Thermal losses) = Rs x (Irms)2
where
Cn in Farad
Irms in Ampere
f in Hertz
θ in °C
V in Volt
Rs in Ohm
Rth in °C/W
WORKING TEMPERATURE
According to the power to be dissipated –
-40°C to +85°C
LIFETIME EXPECTANCY
One unique feature of this technology (as opposed to aluminum electrolytic) is how the capacitor reacts at the end of
its lifetime.
Unlike aluminum electrolytic film capacitors do not have a
catastrophic failure mode. Film capacitors simply experience
a parametric loss of capacitance of about 5% from initial
value, with no risk of short circuit.
The capacitor continues to be functional even after this 5%
decrease.
