Thanks to their compact design with diameters of only 116 and 136 mm at insertion heights of 164 and 200 mm, these capacitors are particularly useful for designing space-saving PFC systems for industrial networks. Based on the proven MKK technology these capacitors can withstand inrush currents of up to 400 times their rated current.

The components are PCB-free and self-healing. An integrated overpressure disconnector ensures additional safety. The capacitors are designed for a case temperature of 65 °C (hot spot temperature up to 85 °C) and a service life of up to 200,000 hours.
