Exxelia présente officiellement ses deux nouvelles séries de condensateurs Film haute température

La série 253P, le Condensateur Film à la stabilité inégalée jusqu’à 200°C La série 253P est le condensateur film PTFE haute température le plus stable du marché (<2,5%), avec des valeurs de  capacités de 0,22 μF à 1 μF sous 250VDC à 800VDC. Il offre la plus faible valeur de perte (T) de toutes les technologies film avec moins de 0,1%  sous 200°C et une excellente durée de vie. La gamme est extrêmement résistante aux vibrations, aux chocs et aux surtensions, ce qui la rend idéale pour les applications pétrolières ainsi que pour la défense et l’aviation.      CARACTERISTIQUES TECHNIQUES: Tension de 250VDC à 800VDC Capacité de 0,22 μF à 1 μF Tolérances standard ±10%, ±5%* Température de fonctionnement -55°C à +200°C   La série 560P, le Condensateur Film Polymer poussé à 180°C La série 560P délivre des performances électriques situées entre celle du BOPP et du PET tout en fonctionnant à une température plus élevée, jusqu’à 180°C et avec une durée de vie plus longue. Le 560P supplante les technologies céramiques et tantales haute température car il ne subit aucune perte de capacité jusqu’à 150°C, et grâce à son TCC très stable <2,5% et sa grande résistance aux vibrations, aux chocs et aux surtensions. La série 560P se présente comme une solution rentable et de haute fiabilité qui en fait le choix idéal pour de nombreuses applications (DC Link, AC Filtering…) en environnements sévères   CARACTERISTIQUES TECHNIQUES: Tension de 320VDC à 800VDC Capacité de 0.022μF à 10μF Tolérances standard ±10%, ±5%* Température de fonctionnement -55°C to +180°C Les deux séries sont disponibles avec un haut degré de personnalisation (*tolérances plus strictes disponibles sur demande). Des échantillons sont disponibles pour évaluation. Pour plus d’informations, contactez sales.france@exxelia.com ou visitez www.exxelia.com
