Film Capacitors

Film capacitors are amongst the most widely used types of capacitors in commercial applications due to their reliability, long life, and high capacitance-to-volume ratio. They are often preferred to other types of capacitors for their ability to withstand large AC voltages and high ripple current ratings. The MKP386M515085JT8 is a film capacitor specifically designed for use in low current applications.

Application Field

The MKP386M515085JT8 is a film capacitor which can be used in a variety of professional and commercial applications such as:

• Power strips and power supplies, with the capacitor helping to provide protection against inrush current.
• Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPS).
• Battery chargers.
• DC to DC converters.
• LED lighting.
• Audio circuits, such as amplifiers and pre-amplifiers.

This particular capacitor is also well-suited for use in medical and aerospace equipment due to its ability to withstand large AC voltages and high ripple current ratings.

Working Principle

A film capacitor works on the same principle as any other type of capacitor. It consists of two electrical conductors, known as plates, separated by an insulating dielectric material, usually thin plastic or paper. When a voltage is applied to the plates, electrons are attracted to one side and repelled from the other, creating an electrical field. This electric field stores energy, which can later be released when the voltage is removed.

The MKP386M515085JT8 film capacitor has a non-polarized construction, which means that it can be used in either AC or DC circuits. It also features a high performance insulation system, providing superior dielectric strength and excellent moisture, heat, and chemical resistance, making it a very reliable and robust capacitance choice.

The MKP386M515085JT8 also features an extremely low dissipation factor (DF) of less than 0.1, which is excellent for energy savings and overall efficiency. The low DF also means that very little power is lost as heat when the capacitor is in use.

Overall, the MKP386M515085JT8 is an excellent choice for low current applications due to its reliability, long life, high capacitance-to-volume ratio, and ability to withstand large AC voltages and high ripple current ratings.
