168102J400A-F

Film capacitors, also known as polymer film capacitors, film dielectric capacitors, or plastic film capacitors, are electrical capacitors with an insulating plastic film as the dielectric, sometimes combined with paper as a conductor layer. The 168102J400A-F is a polyester film capacitor, which are closest to the generic plastic film capacitors, and are a type of film capacitor.

The general principle of operation of film capacitors is to store electrical charge. This charge is stored in the form of an electric field in the dielectric material. When a voltage is applied between two terminals on the capacitor, and an electric field is formed between them, the charges repel each other and accumulates on the dielectric material around them. This causes a polarization effect and the ability to store charge.

The application field of the 168102J400A-F include suppression of AC and RF interference, decoupling of power lines, and snubber applications. It is suitable for switching power supply, UPS, frequency conversion, industrial automation control, medical equipment, power electronics, communications, computer electronics, audiovisual electronics, automobile electronics, and military electronics. It is also used for energy storage, transportation, and other transformer projects. The unique properties of the polyester film capacitor make it suitable for both high frequency and high current applications.

The 168102J400A-F has the characteristics of small size, light weight, low cost, high reliability, stable performance, and excellent ripple current resistance. The insulation resistance is also top-notch and the dielectric loss is extremely low. Meanwhile, the self-healing property of the film capacitor ensures its safety and efficient working.
