Film capacitors are mainly used in electronics, home appliances, communications, electric power, electrified railways, hybrid vehicles, wind power, solar power and other industries. The stable development of these industries has promoted the growth of the film capacitor market. This article will talk about the failure modes of film capacitors.
Film capacitors have high insulation resistance, good heat resistance, self-healing and non-inductive properties. It has excellent high-frequency insulation performance. The capacitance and loss have nothing to do with frequency in a large frequency range, and change little with temperature, while the dielectric strength increases with the increase of temperature, which is difficult for other dielectric materials. Film capacitors have high temperature resistance, small absorption coefficient and are generally used for high-frequency filtering, high-frequency bypass, first-order or second-order filter circuits.
The main failure modes of film capacitors:
1) For small-capacity film capacitors (signal level) open circuit, the open circuit point is generally on the welding point between the pin and the gold-sprayed end of the capacitor core. The main reason is that the manufacturer's welding process is poor.
2) For large-capacity (power-level applications) film capacitors, most of them are burnt due to excessive current. At this time, the capacitor shell is deformed and bursts.
From the above failure modes, we clearly know that the failure of film capacitors lies in the manufacturer's welding process. Selecting quality film capacitors produced by reliable manufacturers can reduce unnecessary troubles. In addition, we must select film capacitors according to the actual situation of the circuit.
