Film Capacitors: MKP1846233136V Application Field and Working Principle

Film capacitors for AC applications use very thin plastic films as the dielectric material. The most widely used materials are polypropylene and polyester, as well as a combination of polyester and paper or polypropylene and aluminum foil. Depending on the type of application for which they are intended, the film capacitors are divided into three main categories: motor-run, film-compensated, and mains-coupled.The MKP1846233136V type film capacitor is a motor-run or motor-start capacitor used for starting and running AC motors. The MKP1846233136V capacitor consists of two cylindrical aluminum canisters filled with electrolyte, which is then polarized and filled with a metallized polypropylene film. This type of capacitor is specifically designed to allow motors to run at a higher speed than the supply frequency. The MKP1846233136V is widely used in applications such as fans, pumps, and compressors.The working principle of a film capacitor is based on the fact that when a voltage is applied across the capacitor, a surface charge is generated on the insulating film. This surface charge produces an electrical field between the two electrodes, allowing electrons to flow between them when a current is applied. The charged particles are attracted to one another, forming an electrical condensate.The MKP1846233136V capacitor has a high breakdown voltage, allowing it to operate safely at much higher voltage and frequency than other types of film capacitors. This is especially useful in applications such as hot tubs and swimming pools, where larger motors are used with voltages of up to 440 VAC. The MKP1846233136V can also be used as a starter for single-phase motors.The most important part of a film capacitor is the dielectric layer, which must have a very low self-inductance. The dielectric layer of the MKP1846233136V consists of a metallized polypropylene film that is bonded to a cylindrical aluminum canister, forming a capacitor suitable for use in AC motor-run applications.The MKP1846233136V capacitor also offers an advantage over other types of film capacitors due to its small size. This allows for a more efficient use of the available space in the application, reducing the overall cost. The MKP1846233136V is also known to be reliable and have a greater reliability than other types of film capacitors.In conclusion, the MKP1846233136V capacitor is an ideal choice for AC motor-run applications due to its high breakdown voltage, small size, and excellent reliability. The combination of these attributes makes it a reliable, cost-effective solution for motor start and run applications.
