FILM& MICA Capacitors Catalog

Product catalog summary

General Information
Exxelia Technologies specializes in the development and manufacturing of capacitors for professional and industrial applications, with over 50 years of experience. Their products comply with French, European, and international standards and are produced in France. The catalog includes capacitors made from materials such as polycarbonate, P.P.S., polyester, polypropylene, polystyrene, Teflon®, and mica.

Metallized Film and Film-Foil Capacitors
These capacitors are constructed by winding dielectric films and electrodes. Metallized film capacitors have electrodes applied by evaporation under vacuum, while film-foil capacitors use separate metal foils. They are designed to withstand climatic, thermal, and mechanical stress.

Dielectric Film Properties

Polycarbonate: High stability and low dielectric losses, suitable for A.C. voltage filtering in aeronautics.
Polyphenylene Sulphide (P.P.S.): Low dielectric losses and high capacitance stability, ideal for high-temperature applications.
Polyester (P.E.T. and P.E.N.): High dielectric constant and self-healing properties, suitable for miniaturized capacitors.
Polypropylene (P.P.): Low dielectric losses and high insulating strength, ideal for power electronics.

New Dielectric Technology
Exxelia introduces a new capacitor technology using metallized plastic film with excellent self-healing properties, exemplified by the PHM 912 series, offering high miniaturization and a wide temperature range.

Specifications and Procedures
The document details the construction of capacitors using dielectric films and electrodes, either metallized or made of independent metal foils. Encapsulation methods ensure resistance to climatic, thermal, and mechanical stresses. Procedures for connecting output terminals through welding or brazing are also discussed.

Capacitor Performance
Performance is influenced by the dielectric material, affecting temperature and frequency response. Graphs illustrate the variation of capacitance, loss angle, and insulation resistance with temperature.

Metallized Film Capacitors
These capacitors feature a thin layer of zinc or aluminum deposited on the dielectric, offering self-healing properties. They are smaller than film-foil capacitors and suitable for applications with permissible peak or effective current requirements.

Film-Foil Capacitors
Recommended for high current and power applications, these capacitors have thicker metal foils to reduce series resistance, though they lack self-healing properties.

Tables and Graphs
Tables summarize the properties of different dielectric films, and graphs show the performance of capacitors across temperature and frequency ranges.

Applications and Recommendations
P.C. capacitors are used in precision applications, high-performance filters, and RC circuits. P.P.S. capacitors are recommended as alternatives due to their similar or superior performance. The document provides guidelines for ordering, specifying model numbers, capacitance, tolerance, and rated voltage.

Standards and Norms
The document adheres to standards such as EN 60384-19 and EN 130 000 for measurement and test conditions. It also mentions compliance with RoHS and flame retardant standards.

Conclusion
P.P.S. capacitors are presented as a viable alternative to P.C. capacitors, with comparable or better electrical characteristics, suitable for demanding applications.
