FILM CAPACITORS FOR
MICROWAVE APPLICATIONS
Microwave Capacitors
For the long life required for industrial and commercial microwaves,
choose Aerovox capacitors. Our microwave capacitors are
constructed using high quality materials and Lean Six Sigma
manufacturing practices.
Aerovox capacitors undergo 100% electrical testing, fault current,
and mechanical testing. If you have specialized needs, our flexible
manufacturing processes allow us to quickly provide custom
configurations.
Aerovox provides intelligent capacitor solutions.
Aerovox Microwave capacitors are used in voltage doubler circuits in high
voltage microwave oven transformers.
The robust design makes these units ideal for withstanding an AC voltage
equal to two times the peak voltage of the transformer output voltage in
industrial or commercial microwave applications.
Highlights
• Dual ratings available
• High voltage threshold for corona
• Long service life designed for industrial and commercial applications
