- Humidity class: C
- Dimensions for designs L1, M1, K1: h (35, 45, 26), b (42, 49, 38), t (44, 55, 35.5)
Important Remarks:
- Safety: ELECTRONICON is not liable for damages due to improper application of capacitors. Capacitors should be used only for their intended application. Misapplication can lead to hazards such as explosions or fires.
- Mounting and Cooling: Excessive heat can significantly reduce capacitor life. Ensure proper cooling and avoid placing capacitors near heat sources. Maintain at least 20mm clearance for ventilation.
- Protection: Capacitors have a self-healing dielectric to handle voltage breakdowns. They are designed to be short-circuit and overvoltage-proof within specified limits.
Failure Rate:
- The failure rate is statistically described by a log-normal distribution and is affected by operating temperature and voltage. The standard reference period is 100,000 hours. Avoid operating capacitors at maximum permissible voltage and temperature simultaneously.
Break Action Mechanism (BAMTM):
- Designed to prevent bursting by separating the connecting wire at a predetermined spot when pressure rises inside the capacitor. This interrupts the current path irreversibly.
Warnings:
- The safety system functions within permitted load limits. Overvoltages, external heat, and heavy current overloads can lead to uncontrollable temperature and pressure increases, potentially causing explosions or fires.
Warranty:
- A 3-year limited warranty covers defects from faulty design, materials, or workmanship. It does not cover improper use, operation beyond rated values, or normal wear and tear.

The special kind of films and coatings used in our E63-capacitors makes them interesting particularly for applications with high rms currents, e.g. as smoothing or supporting capacitors in buffer storage circuits. Filled with liquid resin, these capacitors have a high specific ratio of capacitance to volume. At the same time, they are extremely overvoltage proof. Very good self-healing characteristics and the integrated overpressure protection (break-action mechanism) ensure safe operation and controlled disconnection in the event of overload or failure at the end of operating life.

Failure Rate The failure probability of a component is a statistical value which is described by a log-normal distribution: Ausfallrate Die Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit eines Bauelements ist eine statistische Größe, die mit Hilfe einer Normalverteilung beschrieben wird. Es gilt: N = number of functional components after period t Anzahl der nach der Zeit t intakten Bauelemente No = total number of components at time t = 0 Gesamtzahl der Bauelemente zum Zeitpunkt t = 0 = failure rate Ausfallrate is the failure rate, which alternatively is also stated as the so-called FITrate (FIT = Failures In Time...

Functioning of the BAMTM (Break Action Mechanism) In the event of overvoltage or thermal overload or ageing at the end of the capacitor’s useful service life, an increasing number of selfhealing breakdowns may cause rising pressure inside the capacitor. To prevent it from bursting, the capacitor is fitted with an obligatory „break action mechanism“ (BAMTM). The BAMTM is based on an attenuated spot at one of the connecting wires inside the capacitor. With rising pressure the case begins to expand, mainly by opening the folded crimp and pushing the lid upwards. As a result, the prepared connecting...

Warning: It has to be noted that this safety system can act properly only within the permitted limits of loads and overloads. The simple presence of a safety mechanism does not mean that catastrophic failures are completely impossible. Strong overvoltages, permanent external heat, and heavy current overload, e.g. during harmonic resonances may cause sudden, uncontrollable rise of temperature and pressure inside the can which may not leave sufficient time for the BAMTM to act properly, and result in explosion and fire. For more detailed information, please order our long-version catalogue „Capacitors...
