MKP1848S57070JP4C

Film capacitors utilize a dielectric material, usually plastic film, for flexible charge storage. The MKP1848S57070JP4C is a series of film capacitors that find common use in motor run and motor start applications. In these designs, capacitors are connected in series with a motor to help it draw more current on startup and help to reduce the potential of the motor burning out due to a momentary power spike.

Film capacitors are also used in power factor correction. This is because they possess a low equivalent series resistance and low dissipation factor. This helps reduce the amount of reactive power to the grid, improving the power factor considerably. Additionally, they are useful in boosting voltage levels. This helps reduce problems that can arise from mismatches in power supplies when subjected to transient voltages.

The MKP1848S57070JP4C film capacitors have a working voltage of 10,000 volts DC and a ripple current of 5.7 A. They have high frequency and surge capability, and are suitable for wide temperature ranges and harsh environments. The construction consists of two layers of metallized polypropylene film, which are secured with a self-healing mechanism that prevents the capacitor from shorting in the event of an electrical failure. In addition, the MKP1848S57070JP4C capacitors have an AC capacitor tolerance of ±10% and a DC capacitor tolerance of ±15%.

The MKP1848S57070JP4C capacitors offer great electrical performance when compared to traditional electrolytic capacitors. They provide high capacitance values in small packages, and have an impedance that is not affected by temperature or frequency. This makes them ideal for use in motor start applications, where high current is required and traditional capacitors cannot be used.

The MKP1848S57070JP4C capacitors are widely used in a variety of applications, such as motor start, power factor correction, boost voltage, UPS systems, and general energy storage. One of the biggest advantages of these capacitors is their ability to provide more capacity in a given space when compared to conventional electrolytic capacitors. In addition, their self-healing feature ensures that the capacitor will not short in the event of an overload.

These capacitors are very reliable and provide excellent performance in a wide range of applications. In the motor start application, their ability to provide high current at start up and to dissipate the current quickly on shut down ensures that the motor has the best protection against voltage spikes and drops. In power factor correction applications, their ability to reduce reactive power helps improve energy efficiency. Overall, the MKP1848S57070JP4C film capacitor is a reliable and cost-effective solution for many applications.
