Film Capacitors

Film capacitors are used to provide stable electrostatic energy storage across a variety of AC and DC applications. They are also referred to as foil capacitors and plastic film capacitors, due to the type of dielectric used in the construction of the capacitor. The 16ST155MA23216 film capacitor is a high-performance AC capacitor well suited for a wide range of applications.

Applications

The 16ST155MA23216 capacitors can be used in a variety of applications. These include motors, rectifiers, power supplies, UPS systems, audio equipment, HVAC systems and lighting control systems. The capacitors can also be used for filtering, motor run/start, power factor correction and power supply hold-up.

The main benefit of using film capacitors is their extremely low ESR (equivalent series resistance). This reduces the amount of power dissipation and heat generation in the capacitor making it suitable for applications where space or energy efficiency is important. It also has superior tolerance to high temperatures and rapid temperature changes, making it suitable for high reliability applications.

Features

The 16ST155MA23216 capacitor is designed to offer excellent temperature stability and high performance. It has a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, a capacitance range of 1,500µF to 8,400µF and a breakdown voltage of up to 315VAC. It is also very reliable, with a Mtbf (mean time between failure) of at least 100,000 hours.

The capacitor also offers excellent ripple current handling capability, with a maximum ripple current of up to 250mA across the entire temperature range. It also has polarization free construction and a self-healing dielectric for robust performance in demanding applications.

Working Principle

The basic operating principle of the 16ST155MA23216 is the same as any other type of capacitor. It is composed of two plates or electrodes separated by an insulating material or dielectric. The dielectric is usually a plastic film, such as polypropylene or polyester. A voltage is applied across the plates causing an electric field to form, which causes electrons to flow between the plates and create a small electric charge.

The amount of charge stored in the capacitor is determined by the size of the plates, the material used for the dielectric and the type of voltage applied. The 16ST155MA23216 is designed for AC applications, meaning it is able to handle high frequency AC voltages. This allows it to be used for a wide range of AC applications, from motor control to power factor correction.

Conclusion

The 16ST155MA23216 film capacitor is a high performance AC capacitor well suited for a wide range of applications. It offers excellent temperature stability and high performance, with a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and a capacitance range of 1,500µF to 8,400µF. It also has superior ESR, excellent ripple current handling capability and self-healing dielectric for robust performance in demanding applications.
