Medium Power Film Capacitors
FAI (RoHS Compliant)
TUNING
The FAI series uses metallized polypropylene dielectric
specifically designed for very high reactive power.
The FAI's special design gives to this series a very low level
of stray inductance.
APPLICATIONS
These capacitors have been designed principally for:
low and medium frequency applications
(10 kHz to 500 kHz)
MAXIMUM WORKING TEMPERATURE
(HOT SPOT)
+85°C: Hot spot temperature must be calculated as function
of power dissipation.
HOT SPOT (THERMAL) CALCULATION
See Hot Spot Temperature page 3.
You can calculate the maximum operating (hot spot) tem-
perature of this capacitor in the following manner:
Polypropylene has a constant loss factor (tgδ₀) of 2x10^-4
irrespective of temperature and frequency (up to 1 MHz).
The loss factor of the capacitor is made up of the sum of
two components. The first represents electrical losses
(tgδ₀ = 2.10^-4) and the second represents Joule effect in the
connection and foils: Rs.C.2πF.
For all applications, the temperature in the hot spot capacitor
must be lower than 85°C.
Heating calculation of hot spot capacitor: FAI1 FAI2 FAI3
θ hot spot = θ terminals + (tgδ₀^.Q + R_s^.(I_rms)²).R_th
Heating calculation of hot spot capacitor: FAI6
θ hot spot = θ water + (tgδ₀Q + R_s^.(I_rms)²).R_th
With: tgδ₀ = 2.10^-4
Q in Var
R_s in Ohms
I_rms in Amperes
R_th in °C/W (water flow = 10 dm³/minute)
Note: The life time depends of hot spot temperature, see
following curve.
