Product Brief Film Capacitors PCC Power Capacitors for HybridPACK™ IGBT Modules

Product catalog summary
Introduction
This document provides a technical overview of EPCOS film capacitors, specifically PCC power capacitors designed for HybridPACKTM IGBT modules. It includes details on technology, specifications, and product configurations.

Technology
Metallized film capacitors feature a self-healing property that prevents short circuits by insulating breakdown spots with Al2O3. This process, known as "clearing," ensures capacitor functionality post-breakdown. Capacitors are segmented to limit energy dissipation during clearing.

Winding Technologies
EPCOS employs two winding technologies: stacked technology for high fill factor and low ESR, and flat pressed winding for cost efficiency.

Specifications
Rated voltages for IGBT modules range from 450V to 900V, with maximum voltages slightly higher for short operations. Lifetime calculations are available upon request.

Product Configurations
The document lists various PCC capacitors for different platforms (HP1, HP1-DC6, HP2, HP Drive) with specifications such as capacitance, rated voltage, maximum current, and dimensions.

Mechanical Configurations
Capacitors are available with different mechanical configurations, including side mounting terminals and DC connectors.

Cautions and Warnings
Specifications include capacitance tolerance, test data, climatic category, and construction details. The document emphasizes the need for customer verification of product suitability for specific applications.

Conclusion
This brief serves as an overview and directs users to detailed data sheets for comprehensive product information. It highlights the importance of observing product-specific cautions and warnings.

Film assembly Fig. 1 : Cross section of a metalized film capacitor Fig. 2: Self-healing property of a metalized film capacitor Metallized film capacitors (fig.1) have the advantage that for certain failures in the dielectric the capacitor will not go into short thanks to the ultrathin metallized electrode (thickness typical 10 to 100 nm) and the use of aluminium as material for the electrodes. If a breakdown occurs, the aluminium will evaporate around the breakdown spot and immediately oxidize to Al2 O3, which is an excellent insulator. So the breakdown spot becomes high-impedance and is insulated...

1) To be confirmed; depending on the application Display of ordering codes for EPCOS products The ordering code for one and the same product can be represented differently in data sheets, data books, other publications and the website of EPCOS, or in order-related documents such as shipping notes, order confirmations and product labels. The varying representations of the ordering codes are due to different processes employed and do not affect the specifications of the respective products. Detailed information can be found on the Internet under www.epcos.com/orderingcodes HybridPack is a trademark...
