Working Principle

An aluminum electrolytic capacitor is an energy storage device that uses an electrolyte between two electrodes to store energy. The electrodes are typically made of aluminum foil, while the electrolyte is typically aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. When current is applied, an electric field is formed across the layers of aluminum, which draws ions from the electrolyte to form a dielectric layer. The dielectric layer prevents further flow of current, and acts as an insulating layer between the two electrodes.

The 50ZLH120M8X16 uses a rare earth organic electrolyte, which is more stable and reliable than traditional electrolytes. This electrolyte improves the capacitor’s temperature stability, ripple current capability, and lifetime, making it suitable for a wide variety of harsh environment applications.

The 50ZLH120M8X16 is constructed with a special three-layer structure, with a conductive layer (aluminum foil) as the first layer, a separator layer as the middle layer, and a non-conductive layer as the third layer. This three-layer structure helps reduce the leakage current, which increases the capacitor’s overall reliability and lifetime.

Overall, the 50ZLH120M8X16 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is a reliable, long-lasting and versatile capacitor that is well-suited for a wide variety of power electronic applications.
