Kemet’s family of aluminium electrolytic capacitors which now includes the ALC10 Series of snap-in capacitors up to 550VDC. The parts are ideal for high ripple current applications and offer a high surge voltage capability and long-life performance, says the company.

 

The extended temperature range of -40C to +85C allows increased ripple currents at lower temperatures and an operational life, of up to 18,000 hours at +85C (VR, IR applied).

 

The ALC10 Series also reduces ESR by up to 30% and its robust nature makes it suitable for industrial and commercial applications requiring high reliability, including frequency converters, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems and switch mode power supplies (SMPS).
