Working Principle

The BFC238300245 series is manufactured with polypropylene film as the dielectric material and metallized electrodes as the electrodes. The construction of a film capacitor consists of winding two or more metal plates covered by a thin dielectric film. The metallized electrodes are then sealed in a plasticized potting compound and laser welded together, providing strong encapsulation and mechanical strength.

When a voltage is applied across the capacitor, electrons establish an electric field in the insulating material. The electric field causes the electrons to accumulate at the interface of the two surfaces. These electrons create an electric field inside the dielectric that opposes the applied field, thus increasing the capacitance of the capacitor.

The BFC238300245 range has advantages such as low reactance, high insulation and a wide temperature range. This makes them an ideal choice for a variety of applications in which high performance and reliability are required.
