CPD 512- 03 / 07 www.regalbeloitcapacitors.com 2 Descriptive Information GEM III Construction GEM III Series Construction RBC 's Gem III capacitors are manufactured with high-grade metallized polypropylene film. This film is in the range of 6 to 10 microns thick, depending on the application voltage and conditions. The metallized electrode is several hundred angstroms thick. RBC 's Gem III capacitors are manufactured with high-grade metallized polypropylene film. This film is in the range of 6 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 highspeed, 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 connection to the extremely thin edges of the metalized electrodes. 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 connection to the extremely thin edges of the metalized electrodes. This process is critical to the quality and performance of the capacitors. The rolls are assembled in metal cases, RBC'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-terminal and terminal-to-case. CPD 512 - 03 / 07 The rolls are assembled in metal cases, RBC'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-terminal and terminal-to-case. www.regalbeloitcapacitors.com Product Safety Mounting Considerations Pressure Sensitive Interrupter Vertical Clearance All the capacitors listed in this publication contain RBC's Pressure Sensitive Interrupter (PSI). This device, developed by RBC, 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. There must be sufficient clearance between the tops of the terminals (and/or the assembled wire connectors) and a plane perpendicular to the capacitor terminals. This clearance must be at least 0.5 inches plus the electrical spacing requirements of the end application. 3 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. In the Catalog Number listings a four character U.L. Code, Pxxx, is given. This number is part of the listing for RBC in U.L. File No. E7793. 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 these capacitors. *Underwriter's Laboratories CPD 512 - 03 / 07 www.regalbeloitcapacitors.com Cut-Out Clearance In certain instances capacitors are mounted with the top of the capacitor 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.

CPD 512 - 03 / 07 www.regalbeloitcapacitors.com Case Style A Application Note 97F8000 Series 240 and 370 Volts AC The 97F8000 series of capacitors may be used in AC applications where the voltage waveform is non-sinusoidal. This Application Note is provided to assist in the correct use of the capacitors where higher frequency harmonic currents are present. If you need further assistance please contact RBC's Capacitors Operation through your normal sales channel. Higher frequency currents are commonly encountered in the filter circuits of Static Power Converters. These frequencies range from 180 to 1500 Hz for a 60 Hz system in various combinations of the odd harmonics depending on the type of converter. Generally, there are not significant harmonic currents above the 25th harmonic. These capacitors can carry a total current of up to 15 amperes RMS (fundamental plus harmonics). The Equivalent Series Resistance (ERS) for each Catalog Number is shown in the ESR tables on this page. This value may be used to calculate the expected watts loss for a particular application. The user must determine the total RMS current (fundamental plus harmonics) for the application. The watts loss is then calculated using the equation: W = I 2 x ESR Where I = Total RMS current And ESR= Value from ESR tables. The calculated watts from this equation must not exceed the allowable watts loss shown on the curve corresponding to the particular capacitor. Two sets of curves are shown, one for natural circulation and one for forced air circulation. NOTES (1) In no case should the total RMS current of 15 amperes be exceeded for any of these capacitors. (2) Running the capacitors at case temperatures above 70 C will have a significant effect on expected life. (See chart G-1 on page 8 ) (3) Running the capacitors at voltages above the nominal rated voltage will also result in significantly reduced life.

The user must determine the total RMS current (fundamental plus harmonics) for the application. The watts loss is then calculated using the equation: W = I 2 x ESR I = Total RMS current Where And ESR= Value from ESR tables. The calculated watts from this equation must not exceed the allowable watts loss shown on the curve corresponding to the particular capacitor. Two sets of curves are shown, one for natural circulation and one for forced air circulation. NOTES (1) In no case should the total RMS current of 15 amperes be exceeded for any of these capacitor (2) Running the capacitors at case temperatures above 70 C will have a significant effect on expected life. (See chart G-1 on page 20) (3) Running the capacitors at voltages above the nominal rated voltage will also result in significantly reduced life.
