Film Capacitors: MKT1817410066W Application Field and Working Principle

Film capacitors, also known as plastic film capacitors, have been widely used in various fields including power supplies, high performance audio amplifying and filtering for some time. The MKT1817410066W is a popular film capacitor due to its impressive specifications and features. This article outlines what the MKT1817410066W application field is and what its working principle is.

What is a Film Capacitor?

A film capacitor is a type of capacitor that is made mainly of polymer film as the dielectric. It has multiple metal electrodes on the two sides of the film, which are separated by a thin air gap. These types of capacitors have good stability, high insulation resistance, and low inductive resistance, making them ideal for different applications.

What is the MKT1817410066W?

The MKT1817410066W is a high-performance metallized plastic film capacitor. It possesses a wide range of specifications and features, including a rated voltage of 400VAC and capacitance range of 0.0022uF~0.02uF. It is also compliant with the RoHS directive and has a high working temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. The MKT1817410066W is an ideal choice for many applications, such as power supplies, high performance audio amplifying and filtering.

What is the Application Field for the MKT1817410066W?

The application field of theMKT1817410066W can be divided into two categories. The first is AC power connections, which include power supplies, inverters, AC lighting, and motors. The MKT1817410066W can be used in these applications for filtering, decoupling, snubbing, and EMI suppression. The other is in audio or video applications, which include pro audio, Hi-Fi audio, home theater, and other associated systems.

What is the Working Principle of the MKT1817410066W?

The working principle of the MKT1817410066W is based on the concept of electric capacitance. It is formed by reserving electrical energy within the capacitor as an electric charge that is stored in between two adjacent metal electrodes. This electric charge is separated from each other by a thin air gap, or dielectric, that is usually composed of an insulating polymer film such as polystyrene, polyethylene, or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). When an AC signal passes through the MKT1817410066W, the charge that is stored is exchanged between the two electrodes and capacitance builds up, providing a smooth and consistent voltage output.

Conclusion

The MKT1817410066W is a versatile film capacitor that offers a wide range of performance specifications and features. It can be used for both AC power connection and audio/video applications. It is in compliance with the RoHS directive and has a high working temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. The working principle of the MKT1817410066W is based on electric capacitance, where electrical charge is stored between two adjacent metal electrodes and an electrical field forms to provide a smooth and consistent voltage output.
