High-voltage snap-in capacitors for demanding applications

With the new ALV70 series by KEMET, a YAGEO brand, Rutronik is expanding its portfolio of aluminium electrolytic capacitors for high-voltage applications. The snap-in capacitors are designed for voltages up to 750VDC, offering a capacitance of up to 270μF and can withstand currents of up to 1.66A at 105C/100Hz. This means they can be reliably loaded even at high temperatures and can efficiently cope with the alternating currents caused by ripple – a decisive advantage for applications with strong pulse currents, such as in inverters or motor controls. A service life of 2,000 hours at +85C under nominal voltage and current also ensures maximum reliability in energy- and industry-critical applications.

Thanks to various housing sizes and pin configurations, the capacitors can be flexibly integrated into designs. They are characterised by exceptional heat dissipation, high ripple current capability and a robust design. This makes them the perfect choice for developers who demand reliable and durable solutions.

Additional safety is provided by a PET sleeve and a Lexan disc, which are recognised as flame-retardant and standard-compliant materials according to UL QMTR2 (UL No. E358957).
