Its tight tolerance helps ensure consistent performance no matter what the conditions. It provides reliable performance, even under the most extreme environmental conditions.

Working Principle of EKMH250VSN472MP25T

The working principle of aluminum electrolytic capacitors is based on the principle of electrolysis. An aluminum foil is used as an electrolyte, and a dielectric material, typically paper or an oxide layer, is placed between the two electrodes. A voltage is applied between the two electrodes, and an electrical field is created. This electrical field causes an electric current to flow through the electrolyte, which in turn causes electric charges to be exchanged between the electrodes, resulting in the buildup of electric potential across the capacitor. This electric potential is known as the “dielectric breakdown voltage”, which is the maximum voltage that can be applied across the capacitor.
