Capacitors for HID Lighting Applications
Metallized film capacit ors are unsurpassed in terms of size, weight, performance, and reliability for
AC applications. Regal-Beloit brings over 60 year of capacitor manufacturing experience to the
product lines described i n this publication. These capacito rs represent the best in product design
for long-term reliability and safe operation. Regal-Beloit’s materials, product, and process
development work continue to provide capacitor users with outstanding total value.
The GEM III HID Lighting Capaci tors are designed specifically for HID Lighting applications
where the capacit ors are used as part of the ballast circuit for mercury vapor, metal halide,
and high-pressure sodium lamps. The units are designed to operate at temperatures up to
90oC, which is the normal requirement for HID ballast capacitors. Due to advances in material
technology and breakthroughs in proprietary capacitor manufacturing processes, selected
ratings are now available for operation up to 100oC for 60,000 hours.
GEM III Construction
Regal-Beloit’s GEM III c a pacitors are manufactured with
high-grade metallized polypropylene film. This film is in the
range of 5 to 10 microns thick, depending on the
application, voltage, and conditions. The metallized
electrode is several hundred angstroms thick.
The film is wound into capacitor rolls on high-speed, high-
precision machines. The winding is extremely tight so that
there is not enough space between the layers for corona
(localized partial electrical discharges) to occur. The rolls
are sprayed on both ends with metal to make the
connection to the extremely thin edges of the metallized
electrodes. This process is critical to the quality and
performance of t h e capacitors.
The rolls are assembled in metal cases, Regal-Beloit’s
proprietary Dielektrol VI liquid is introduced under
vacuum, and the capacitors are sealed. They are then
subjected to 100% electrical testing for capacitance,
dissipation factor, and high potential electrical withstand,
both terminal-to-t erminal and terminal-to-case.

Product Safety
The PSI carries U.L.* recognition for applications where the specified fault currents are not
exceeded. The fault current is the maximum current that is available from the circuit to flow
through the capacitor if the capacitor were to become a short circuit with zero impedance. It
is the responsibility of the capacitor user to determine what the available fault current is for a
particular application.
All the capacitors listed in this publication contain Regal-Beloit’s Pressure Sensitive Interrupter
(PSI). This device, developed by GE, is designed to sense the build-up of pressure within the
capacitor if a fault occurs and to interrupt the internal electrical connections before the case
can rupture.
In the Catalog Number listings a four character U.L. Code, Pxxx, is given. This number is part of
the listing for Regal-Beloit in U.L. File No. E322597. When applying to U.L. for approvals or
recognition of equipment using these capacitors refer to the Pxxx number and not the Catalog
Number of the capacitor in question.
Proper operation of the PSI requires that the cover be able to expand without restriction. The
following mounting considerations should be noted in mounting the these capacitors.

Product Safety
There must be sufficient clearance between
the tops of the terminals (and/or the
assembled wire connectors) and a plane
perpendicular to the capacitor termi n als.
This clearance must be at least 0.5 inches plus
the electrical spacing requirements of the
end application.
In certain instances, capacitors are
mounted with the top of the capacitors
case resting against the chassis and the
terminals protruding through the chassis.
Care must be taken to see that the cutout in
the chassis is large enough. The following
dimensions are recommended.
