97F8000 Series 240 and 370 Volts AC
The 97F8000 series of capacitors
where the voltage waveform is non-sinusoidal. This Application
Note is provided to assist in the correct use of the capacitors
where higher frequency harmonic currents are present. If you
need further assistance please contact RBC’s Capacitors
Operation through your normal sales channel.
Higher frequency currents are commonly encountered in the
filter circuits of Static Power Converters. These frequencies
range from 180 to 1500 Hz for a 60 Hz system in various
combinations of the odd harmonics depending on the type of
above the 25th harmonic.
These capacitors can carry a total current of up to 15 amperes
RMS (fundamental plus harmonics). The Equivalent Series
Resistance (ERS) for each Catalog Number is shown in the ESR
tables on this page. This value may be used to calculate the
expected watts loss for a particular application. The user must
determine the total RMS current (fundamental plus harmonics)
for the application. The watts loss is then calculated using the
equation:
W = I 2 x ESR
Where I = Total RMS current
And ESR= Value from ESR tables.
The calculated watts from this equation must not exceed the
allowable watts loss shown on the curve corresponding to the
particular capacitor. Two sets of curves are shown, one for
natural circulation and one for forced air circulation.
NOTES
(1) In no case should the total RMS current of 15 amperes be
exceeded for any of these capacitors.
(2) Running the capacitors at case temperatures above 70 ºC
will have a significant effect on expected life. (See chart G-1 on
page 8 )
(3) Running the capacitors at voltages above the nominal rated
voltage will also result in significantly reduced life. (See chart G2 on page 8 )
