105K400CS6G

Capacitor networks and arrays are used for a wide range of applications, from AC power transmission, to electric motor control and pulse-width modulation of DC power. The 105K400CS6G is a nickel-based capacitor array designed for use in heavily-loaded industrial AC power transmission systems. This article explains the application field and working principle of the 105K400CS6G capacitor array.

Application Field

The 105K400CS6G capacitor array is designed for the harsh environment of industrial AC power transmission systems. It is particularly suitable for applications involving heavily loaded transformers, rectifiers, induction motors, air compressors, and other power distribution systems. The array can handle up to 400 volts of AC power, making it suitable for applications in areas with high voltage or current power levels. Additionally, the 105K400CS6G capacitor array is UL/CSA certified, so it is suitable for use in applications that require safety certification.

Design

The 105K400CS6G capacitor array consists of six substantial nickel case Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors, arranged in a cuboidal structure. The capacitor cases are hermetically sealed, ensuring maximum reliability and resistance to shock and vibration. The interface between the six capacitor cells is a robust, high-heat tolerant brass terminal block, designed for quick, safe connection to the main power line. The terminal block is protected by a rugged, corrosion-resistant nickel-plated steel cover, designed to ensure compliance with UL and CSA certification requirements.

Working Principle

The 105K400CS6G capacitor array is designed to operate in parallel with the main power line. As AC current is fed through the capacitor array, the array absorbs energy. This energy is stored in the capacitor cells and released back into the main power line when the current is reversed. This allows the capacitor array to balance out high-current spikes, resulting in a more uniform power delivery throughout the system. Additionally, the capacitance of the array can be used to filter out noise, thus ensuring clean power delivery.

Conclusion

The 105K400CS6G capacitor array is designed for use in heavily-loaded AC power transmission systems. The array is UL/CSA certified, and is capable of handling up to 400 volts of AC power. The capacitor cells are arranged in a cuboidal structure and hermetically sealed for maximum protection from shock and vibration. When connected in parallel with the main power line, the capacitor array can absorb energy, and filter out noise, resulting in a more efficient and reliable power delivery.
