6 FAQs about [Product Standards for Self-Healing Capacitors]

Are metallized film capacitors self-healing?

Abstract: Metallized film capacitors (MFCs) are known for their self-healing (SH) properties, enabling efficient and reliable operation, even under challenging conditions. These SH events have the potential to inflict damage on both the polypropylene (PP) film and the electrode layer.

How reliable are metallized film capacitors?

RP serves as a valuable tool for evaluating the safety of MFCs with an unknown SH history, contributing to the assessment of their reliability. Metallized film capacitors (MFCs) are known for their self-healing (SH) properties, enabling efficient and reliable operation, even under challenging conditions.

Can a self-healing process destroy a capacitor?

Unfortunately, this mechanism can be dificult to control, and in the worst case, a run-away process can result, causing the destruction of the entire capacitor in short order. To avoid this, KYOCERA AVX developed a controlled self-healing process in 1974 based on the segmentation of overall capacitance into elementary cells protected by fuse gates.

What is a shunt power capacitor?

Shunt power capacitors of the self-healing type for a.c. systems having a rated voltage up to and including 1 000 V - Part 2: Ageing test, self-healing test and destruction test IEC 60831-2:2014 applies to capacitors according to IEC 60831-1 and gives the requirements for the ageing test, self-healing test and destruction test for these capacitors.

Why does a metallized polypropylene capacitor have a partial discharge?

Capacitors made of metallized polypropylene films suffer partial discharges, called self-healing, due to weak electrical defects. Those defects are destroyed by an electrical arc that extinguishes when enough metal of the electrodes is vapourized around this point.

Are capacitors safe & reliable?

In high voltage, high energy applications such as electric trains and solar power grids, the safety and reliability of capacitors are paramount. Catastrophic failures and associated explosions or fires are unacceptable. Just as importantly, service lifetime and predictability for optimizing up-time are critical to the product's success.
