Capacitor abnormal maintenance

An open failure in a capacitor can have undesirable effects on electronic equipment and components on the circuit. For example, if a large capacitor is used in the smoothing circuit of a power supply, a large wave-like voltage*4can be converted to a flat DC voltage, but if the capacitor is open, a large voltage wave is.

6 FAQs about [Capacitor abnormal maintenance]

How to prevent a capacitor failure?

Such failures can be avoided with preventive maintenance action such as replacing the capacitor. For film capacitors, the typical failure mode is capacitance decrease due to self-healing, so it is possible to diagnose the life expectancy by understanding the capacitance change.

What happens if a capacitor fails?

When current repeatedly flows into a defective part due to overvoltage or dielectric degradation, the capacitor continues to self-heal and loses capacitance. Generally, a capacitor is considered to have failed when its capacitance drops by 3% or more compared to its initial value. The probability that a failure will occur is called 'failure rate'.

What type of capacitor is most likely to fail?

Mica and tantalum capacitors are more likely to fail in the early period of use (early failure), while aluminum electrolytic capacitors are more likely to experience wear-out failure due to aging use. In the case of film capacitors, when a local short circuit failure occurs, the shorted area may temporarily self-heal.

What is the failure rate of a capacitor?

The failure rate of capacitors can be divided into three regions by time and is represented by a bathtub curve as shown in Figure 37. (1) Early failures *31 exhibits a shape where the failure rate decreases over time. The vast majority of capacitor's initial defects belong to those built into capacitors during processing.

Why do aluminum electrolytic capacitors fail?

In aluminum electrolytic capacitors, the electrolyte evaporates due to operating temperature and self-heating during use, resulting in failures such as capacitance reduction, increased tan δ and leakage current. Such failures can be avoided with preventive maintenance action such as replacing the capacitor.

How do you know if a capacitor has failed?

Generally, a capacitor is considered to have failed when its capacitance drops by 3% or more compared to its initial value. The probability that a failure will occur is called 'failure rate'. There are two types of failure rates: average failure rate and hazard rate (instantaneous failure rate).
