Medium Power Film Capacitors
FM (RoHS Compliant)
FM is non-inductively wound with metallized polypropylene
film as dielectric, encapsulated in plastic case and sealed
with thermosetting resin. They are ideal for high frequency
and high pulse-rise-time circuit, and find wide application in
high voltage power supplies, snubber and electronic lighting
ballasts.
APPLICATIONS
• High reliability at high current stress
• Self-healing properties
• Flame retardant plastic case and epoxy resin
• Low losses, high dv/dt capability
• High moisture resistance
• High stability of capacitance and long life
WORKING TEMPERATURE
Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +105°C
PACKAGING MATERIAL
LIFETIME EXPECTANCY
One unique feature of this technology (as opposed to alu-
minum electrolytics) is how the capacitor reacts at the end of
its lifetime.
• Self-extinguishing plastic case
(V0 = in accordance with UL 94) filled thermosetting resin.
• Self-extinguishing thermosetting resin
(V0 = in accordance with UL 94;
Unlike aluminum electrolytic film capacitors do not have a
catastrophic failure mode. Film capacitors simply experience
a parametric loss of capacitance of about 2% from initial
value, with no risk of short circuit.
I3F2 = in accordance with NF F 16-101).
STANDARDS
IEC 61071-1, IEC 61071-2: Power electronic capacitors
IEC 60384-16: Fixed metallized polypropylene
film dielectric DC capacitors
The capacitor continues to be functional even after this 2%
decrease.
