Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are a type of capacitors which use an aluminum oxide layer as a dielectric material in order to increase the capacitance of a given value. These capacitors can store a large amount of energy as this oxide layer can be extremely thin. This allows for more current to be stored and makes them ideal for use in applications where space is tight. The most common type of aluminum electrolytic capacitor is known as the axial leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitor. This type is made of two plates of aluminum, one with a layer of aluminum oxide across it, and the other with a thin insulation layer around it. The two plates are then connected by a cylindrical lead wire which passes through the insulation layer so that the capacitor can be connected to the circuit.

The most common application of aluminum electrolytic capacitors is in power supplies. These capacitors are used to store energy and then discharge it as needed in order to provide power to the system. They are also used for filtering of power and to reduce noise in signals. In addition, these capacitors are also used in motor control and power factor correction systems.

MAL214699813E3 Application Field and Working Principle

The MAL214699813E3 is a general-purpose aluminum electrolytic capacitor, specifically developed for power factor correction and power supply applications. The capacitor is rated at 440 V and has a capacitance of 1000 µF. It has a standard cylindrical shape with thin lead-wire connections. The capacitor can be used in a wide range of applications such as snubber circuits, input and output filters, and noise reduction.

The working principle of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is that the aluminum oxide layer provides a thin dielectric material between the two plates. This layer allows for an increase in capacitance and permits more current to be stored within a given volume. As the capacitor is charged, electrons build up between the two plates, and as they reach an equilibrium, they are drawn back to the plates and the energy is stored. When the capacitor is discharged, the electrons move from the plates to the circuit and the energy is released.
