• 400 V Rated Voltage: Suitable for high-voltage DC bus applications with a 400 V rating.
• High Ripple-Current Capability: 42.9 A at 120 Hz and 60.06 A at 100 kHz to support heavy AC ripple and fast charge–discharge cycles.
• Long Load Life: 5,000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple current, with specified limits for capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current after test.
• Wide Operating Temperature: Specified for operation from −40°C to +85°C to cover a broad range of industrial environments.
• Screw-Terminal Radial Can: Screw terminal mounting for secure electrical and mechanical connections in panel- or chassis-mounted power assemblies.
• Endurance and Charge–Discharge Robustness: Meets series endurance for 50 million charge–discharge cycles (ΔV = rated × 0.3, 3 Hz) at room temperature with defined limits on capacitance, tan δ and leakage current.
• Polarized with ±20% Tolerance: Polarized device with capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% (±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Compact Mechanical Footprint: Radial can package with screw terminals; size approximately L: 18.5 cm × D: 9 cm and a seated height up to 7.283 inch for integration planning.
