Type SCR, Commutating Capacitors Type SCRN Film-Paper/Extended Foil Commutating Capacitor Application Guide How to Choose a Commutating Capacitor 1. From circuit analysis or measurement, determine application values for these six parameters: 3. Check that your application’s rms current is no more than the capacitor’s Max. Amps RMS. You can calculate the current from your Vrms using the Nominal capacitance in µF equations in the following section. Current pulse width in µs Current pulse period in µs 4. Check that your application’s volt-amperes is not more than the Maximum peak voltage capacitor’s VA capability. The VA capability is the max VA rating times Continuous AC voltage in Vrms the Volt-Ampere multiplier from Figure 2 (Current Pulse Width) and that Maximum volt-amps (VA) times the Volt-Ampere Multiplier from Figure 3 (Ambient Temperature). See the following section for more on using volt-ampere multipliers. 2. Choose a capacitor from the ratings table of the desired nominal capacitance with a peak voltage rating no less than your maximum If you need a greater VA capability, repeat these steps for a higher peak peak voltage. voltage capacitor or consider connecting units in parallel to divide the VA required. For up to peak voltage of 600 V, you may also consider polypropylene flm dielectric units, Catalog Numbers SCRN262R through SCRN266R, with higher VA capability. Using Volt-Ampere Ratings Pulse Wave Applications V peak The capacitors maximum VA rating is the maximum product of the Voltage sine wave voltage and current that may be applied at 65 ºC without overheating the capacitor and reducing its expected life. For other ΔV temperatures and pulsed current, use the multipliers of Figures 2 and 3 to derate the Max VA rating. T The Max Amps RMS rating is set by the capability of the capacitor terminals. Exceeding this limit can damage the terminals and cause capacitor failure. Calculate the capacitor’s actual VA load as the product of the rms voltage Current across the capacitor and the rms current through the capacitor. To I peak calculate rms current for an applied sine wave or squarewave voltage, use these equations. Figure 1 For a sinewave voltage the current is: Irms = 2π fCVrmsX10-6 and for a squarewave the current is: Irms = C∆V/[0.64(tT)0.5] = Ipeak(t/T)0.5 where (f ) is repetition frequency in Hz, C is nominal capacitance in µF, ∆V the peak-to-peak squarewave amplitude in volts, (t) is the pulse width in µs and T is the pulse period in µs. The peak current for the square wave voltage is: Ipeak = C∆V/0.64t CDE Cornell Dubilier • 1605 E. Rodney French Blvd. • New Bedford, MA 02744 • Phone: (508)996-8561 • Fax: (508)996-3830
