Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ripple current rating?
Rated ripple current is 12A at 85°C and 120Hz. This is suitable for medium-power industrial drives and motor control applications. At lower temperatures, higher ripple currents can be handled - approximately 15A at 65°C. The ripple current capability is essential for handling the switching currents in inverter applications. Proper thermal management is required to dissipate the heat generated by ripple current. For applications exceeding 12A, consider parallel connection or selecting a larger case size capacitor.
Verify current requirements for your specific application. Consider temperature derating and parallel connection for high current applications.
What is the expected lifetime?
Rated lifetime is 5,000 hours at 85°C. Using the Arrhenius equation, lifetime extends to approximately 20,000 hours at 65°C following the temperature-lifetime relationship. Every 10°C reduction in operating temperature doubles the capacitor lifetime. For applications requiring extended lifetime, consider the STH series with 105°C rating. Proper thermal design including adequate airflow can significantly extend actual operating lifetime beyond the rated value.
Operate at lower temperatures for extended lifetime. Consider 105°C rated capacitors for high-temperature environments.
What applications is this suitable for?
This capacitor is ideal for 180V DC bus applications including servo drives, industrial motor controls, CNC machine power supplies, and automation equipment. The 200V rating provides good safety margin for 180V DC bus systems with voltage transients. The high ripple current capability makes it suitable for inverter input filtering and DC link applications. The screw terminal construction provides reliable high-current connections for industrial environments.
Perfect for 180V DC bus industrial applications including servo drives and motor controls. Ensure proper voltage derating for reliable operation.
What are the mounting requirements?
This capacitor requires base mounting using M8 bolts through the integrated mounting bracket. The mounting bracket provides secure mechanical installation for high-vibration industrial environments. Follow datasheet torque specifications for proper mounting - typically 3-5 Nm for M8 bolts. Ensure proper clearance for the 70mm height and 45mm diameter. The base mounting provides both mechanical stability and heat dissipation path. Use lock washers to prevent loosening from vibration.
Use proper M8 mounting hardware with correct torque specifications. Ensure adequate clearance and use lock washers for vibration protection.
What voltage derating is recommended?
Industry standard recommends 80% voltage derating for aluminum electrolytic capacitors. For this 200V capacitor, maximum operating voltage should be 160V. This provides good safety margin for 180V DC bus applications with voltage transients and switching spikes. The 20% derating significantly improves reliability and extends lifetime compared to operating at full rated voltage. For critical applications, consider 50% derating for maximum reliability.
Design for 80% voltage derating minimum. Use 50% derating for critical applications requiring maximum reliability.
