Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The DC-link induction heating capacitor features a maximum rated voltage of 3500VDC and a maximum capacitance of 10000μF, with custom options ranging up to 20000μF and 8000VDC.
Its primary functions include providing robust DC-link support, filtering low and high-frequency ripple waves, and bypassing series resonance current.
It utilizes a metal shell encapsulation, dry epoxy resin potting, pure copper electrodes (for vertical or horizontal installation), a compacted design, and a self-healing metalized dielectric that withstands high voltage, high ripple current, and high dv/dt.
Dry-type capacitors employ natural cooling, eliminating the need for cooling water. This design saves on cooling system costs and maintenance. However, its working frequency and over-current limits are generally lower than those of water-cooled capacitors.
A coreless induction melting furnace ensures nearly balanced line currents on the supply side, keeps flicker contribution below standard limits, maintains relatively low reactive power demand without drastic changes in active power, and eliminates voltage sags and swells arising from furnace operation.
These capacitors have an operating temperature range of -40℃ to +70℃ and a life expectancy of 100,000 hours under rated voltage (Un) when the hot spot temperature remains ≤70°C.
