ECH-U1H393JB5 Capacitors

Film capacitors are passive electronic components, made of a thin dielectric film and electrodes, which are used for storing energy in electrical circuits. The ECH-U1H393JB5 is a film capacitor specifically designed for general-purpose use. It is 10mm in diameter and 8mm long, and can withstand up to 16 kilovolts. This makes it a great choice for use in high-voltage circuits, such as those found in motor drives and power supplies.

Application Field

Film capacitors such as the ECH-U1H393JB5 are used in many applications, ranging from consumer electronics to industrial machinery. In consumer electronics, they are used to store energy in a circuit and reduce AC ripple, providing a power buffer for sensitive electronic components. In industrial and commercial settings, film capacitors are used for power factor correction and energy storage, helping to ensure consistent power quality.

Film capacitors are also used in various commercial and industrial applications such as motor drives, UPS systems, inverters, and surge protectors. Additionally, film capacitors are commonly used for energy management for low-power applications, providing improved energy efficiency and reduced energy consumption.

Working Principle

The ECH-U1H393JB5 is a film capacitor that relies on the electrostatic principle of capacitance. It consists of two metal electrodes that are separated by a dielectric material. When voltage is applied to the electrodes, the dielectric material stores electrical energy. This charge is then released when the voltage is removed.

Film capacitors are designed with two types of electrodes: metallized and foil. Metallized electrodes are made with a thin metal layer that is applied to the surface of the dielectric material. Foil electrodes are made using two metal layers that are separated by a thin dielectric film. Both types of electrodes are designed to create an electrostatic field in order to store energy.

Film capacitors are also designed to have high surge currents, low losses, and excellent long-term reliability. The ECH-U1H393JB5 capacitor can handle high currents up to 130mA, making it suitable for high-power applications such as motor drives. Additionally, its metallized electrodes contribute to its low loss performance, allowing it to achieve excellent power performance as well.

Conclusion

The ECH-U1H393JB5 film capacitor is a general-purpose type capacitor that is well-suited for a wide range of applications. Its construction features make it an ideal choice for high-voltage circuits, such as those encountered in motor drives and power supplies. Additionally, its high surge current capability make it a great choice for power factor correction and energy management in both commercial and industrial settings.
