MP DC Capacitors
Smoothing, Supporting, Discharge
High peak-current capability
Wide capacitance and voltage range
Construction
● Self-healing
● Paper dielectric
● Oil and hard-wax-impregnated tubular
windings (no PCB)
● Metal-sprayed end faces ensure
reliable contacting
● Tubular aluminum case
● 1-pole and 2-pole versions
● Ceramic or plastic lead-throughs
● With mounting bolt
(325 mm high capacitors without mounting bolt)
Terminals
● Screw terminals M12
● Screw-clamping terminals
● Tab connectors 6,3 mm
Mounting parts
● If the vibration stress is ≤ 5
in diameter and ≤ 160 mm in height, the bolt is used for mounting.
● For capacitors without mounting bolt and in case of a vibration
stress > 5g as well as for larger-sized capacitors refer to chapter
“Mounting parts”.
g
and the capacitors are ≤ 60 mm
B 25 355
Grounding
● Mounting bolt or grounding strap
for grounding in accordance with VDE 0100
● Grounding identification in accordance with DIN 40 011
Overpressure disconnector (mechanical)
When the overpressure disconnector responds,
the capacitor extends by up to 8 mm.
So leave sufficient space above the terminals when mounting the capacitor.
Individual data sheets
Individual capacitors of this series are specified in detail
(incl. thermal data) on pages 78 … 93.
Upon request, these data sheets are available for each capacitor type.
