Terms and characteristics
The following definitions apply to power capacitors according to IEC 61071.
Rated capacitance CN
Nominal value of the capacitance at 20 °C and measuring frequency range of 50 to 120 Hz.
Rated DC voltage VRDC
Maximum operating peak voltage of either polarity but of a non-reversing type wave form, for which the capacitor
has been designed, for continuous operation.
Ripple voltage Vr
Peak-to-peak alternating component of the unidirectional voltage.
Maximum surge voltage Vs
Peak voltage induced by a switching or any other disturbance of the system which is allowed for a limited
number of times and duration.
- Maximum duration: 50 ms / pulse
- Maximum number of occurrences: 1000 (during load)
Insulation voltage Vi
Rms rated value of the insulation voltage of capacitive elements and terminals to case or earth. When it is not
specified in the product data sheet, the insulation voltage is at least:
Vi = 2
R
V
Maximum rate of voltage rise (dV/dt)max
Maximum permissible repetitive rate of voltage rise of the operational voltage.
Maximum current Imax
Maximum rms current for continuous operation.
Maximum peak current Î
Maximum permissible repetitive current amplitude during continuous operation.
Maximum peak current (Î) and maximum rate of voltage rise (dV/dt)max on a capacitor are related as follows:
Î = C · (dV/dt)max
Maximum surge current Î s
Admissible peak current induced by a switching or any other disturbance of the system which is allowed for a
limited number of times (1000 times) and duration (50 ms / pulse).
Îs = C · (dV/dt)s
Ambient temperature ΘA
Temperature of the surrounding air, measured at 10 cm distance and 2/3 of the case height of the capacitor.
Lowest operating temperature Θmin
Lowest permitted ambient temperature at which a capacitor may be energized.

Cautions and warnings
In case of dents of more than 1 mm depth or any other mechanical damage, capacitors must not be used at
all.
Check tightness of the connections/terminals periodically.
The energy stored in capacitors may be lethal. To prevent any chance of shock, discharge and short-circuit
the capacitor before handling.
Failure to follow cautions may result, worst case, in premature failures, bursting and fire.
EPCOS AG is not responsible for any kind of possible damages to persons or things due to improper
installation and application of capacitors for power electronics.
Safety
Electrical or mechanical misapplication of capacitors may be hazardous. Personal injury or property damage
may result from bursting of the capacitor or from expulsion of oil or melted material due to mechanical
disruption of the capacitor.
Ensure good, effective grounding for capacitor enclosures.
Observe appropriate safety precautions during operation (self-recharging phenomena and the high energy
contained in capacitors).
Handle capacitors carefully, because they may still be charged even after disconnection.
The terminals of capacitors, connected bus bars and cables as well as other devices may also be energized.
Follow good engineering practice.
Thermal load
After installation of the capacitor it is necessary to verify that maximum hot-spot temperature is not exceeded at
extreme service conditions.
Mechanical protection
The capacitor has to be installed in a way that mechanical damages and dents in the aluminum can are avoided.
Storage and operating conditions
Do not use or store capacitors in corrosive atmosphere, especially where chloride gas, sulfide gas, acid, alkali,
salt or the like are present. In dusty environments regular maintenance and cleaning especially of the terminals
is required to avoid conductive path between phases and/or phases and ground.
The maximum storage temperature is 85 °C.
Service life expectancy
Electrical components do not have an unlimited service life expectancy; this applies to self-healing capacitors,
too. The maximum service life expectancy may vary depending on the application the capacitor is used in.
Important notes
Page 20 of 20
The following applies to all products named in this publication:
1. Some parts of this publication contain statements about the suitability of our products for
certain areas of application. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical
requirements that are often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We
nevertheless expressly point out that such statements cannot be regarded as binding
statements about the suitability of our products for a particular customer application. As a
rule, EPCOS is either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar with them
than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incumbent on the
customer to check and decide whether an EPCOS product with the properties described in the
product specification is suitable for use in a particular customer application.
2. We also point out that in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or failure
before the end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the current state
of the art, even if they are operated as specified. In customer applications requiring a very high
level of operational safety and especially in customer applications in which the malfunction or
failure of an electronic component could endanger human life or health (e.g. in accident
prevention or life-saving systems), it must therefore be ensured by means of suitable design of the
customer application or other action taken by the customer (e.g. installation of protective circuitry
or redundancy) that no injury or damage is sustained by third parties in the event of malfunction or
failure of an electronic component.
3. The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed.
4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements, some of the products described in this
publication may contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e.g.
because they are classed as hazardous). Useful information on this will be found in our Material
Data Sheets on the Internet (www.epcos.com/material). Should you have any more detailed
questions, please contact our sales offices.
5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently, the products described in this
publication may change from time to time. The same is true of the corresponding product
specifications. Please check therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications
contained in this publication are still applicable before or when you place an order.
We also reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Consequently,
we cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available.
The aforementioned does not apply in the case of individual agreements deviating from the
foregoing for customer-specific products.
6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to the current version of
the “General Terms of Delivery for Products and Services in the Electrical Industry”
published by the German Electrical and Electronics Industry Association (ZVEI).
