Film Capacitors – Made in Germany

WIMA DC-Link capacitors are especially designed for applications in high power converter technology where due to increasing electrical requirements they are more and more substituting electrolytic capacitors. Manufactured with a low loss polypropylene dielectric they show a higher current carrying capability as well as lower dissipation/self-heating at high frequencies compared to electrolytic capacitors. Further outstanding features are, e.g.:

• Very high capacitance/volume ratio
• High voltage rating per component
• Very low dissipation factor (ESR)
• Very high insulation resistance
• Excellent self-healing properties
• Long life expectancy
• Non-polar construction
• Particularly reliable contact configuration
• High shock and vibration resistance
• Outstanding mechanical stability

WIMA DC-LINK MKP 4 capacitors with rectangular case are available with capacitance values from 1 µF through 400 µF and with rated voltages from 400 VDC through 1700 VDC. For mounting purposes 2-pin, 4-pin or plate connections are possible.

WIMA DC-LINK MKP 6 capacitors have a cylindrical aluminium case. They are available with capacitances from 120 µF through 4920 µF and with rated voltages from 600 VDC through 1500 VDC. For bus bar mounting they are designed with M6 screw terminations and M12 screw bolt.

Customized solutions e.g. can be realized with WIMA DC-LINK HC with variable connecting configurations.
