GENERAL INFORMATION
EUROFARAD manufactures film capacitors using most of the technologies available, especially polyester, polypropylene and polycarbonate films which have good intrinsic properties suited to certain applications where current, temperature, power and high voltage are very important parameters.
Eurofarad film capacitors are obtained by winding two or more layers of dielectric plastic film and metal foil. The metal layers are applied by evaporation under vacuum on the dielectric ( metallized film capacitors ) or consist of separate metal foils (film-foil capacitors). Generally, the coils of each of the metal foils are interconnected by a deposit of several metal alloy layers. The leads are connected by soldering or brazing.
This is due to the properties of the film used : high dielectric constant and high dielectric strength.
They also have excellent self-healing properties.
They may be used in A.C. sinewave or non sinewave applications.
They comply with the requirements of NF C 83151 (CECC 30 400)
standard.
