A question about capacitor type and temperature limits

Higher formation voltages permit higher operating temperatures but reduce the capacitance. The low-temperature limit of an electrolytic capacitor is set largely by the cold resistivity of the electrolyte. The higher cold resistivity increases the capacitor''s ESR 10 to 100 fold and reduces the available capacitance.

Aluminium Electrolytic Capacitors'' Performance in Very High

Up to 28A ripple current, continuous load, is possible to specify, at a capacitor case temperature of 125oC (∅20x 43mm- case). To achieve this performance the capacitor body needs to be heat- sinked. As a comparison, the ripple current for some of the best capacitors on the market today is 14-15 A (heat- sinked, 125oC, same case-size).

6 FAQs about [Capacitor case temperature regulations]

How does temperature affect the life of a capacitor?

Every 10° C increase in internal temperature halves the component lifetime. The structure and materials used in the capacitor make heat dissipation more difficult. To operate properly, the case must be electrically isolated from the core where heat is generated. The voltage breakdown of the insulation materials is often in excess of 350 volts DC.

Why is capacitor temperature so high in industrial environments?

Capacitor temperature is surprisingly high in industrial environments when we consider elevated enclosure temperatures as well as self-heating due to ripple current. The rule of 10 is a simplistic model for determining the longevity of electronics. Each 10°C increase in temperature reduces the life by a factor of 2.

What determines a high-temperature limit of an electrolytic capacitor?

Largely the formation voltage sets the high-temperature limit. Higher formation voltages permit higher operating temperatures but reduce the capacitance. The low-temperature limit of an electrolytic capacitor is set largely by the cold resistivity of the electrolyte.

What temperature should a capacitor be stored?

For long periods of storage keep capacitors at cool room temperatures and in an atmosphere free of halogen gases like chlorine and fluorine that can corrode aluminum. Storage temperature ranges are from –55 ºC to the upper limit of the operating-temperature ranges. Sources: Capacitor Selection Guide - KEMET (.PDF)

What factors should be considered when choosing a capacitor?

Also it is recommended to consider the temperature distribution in equipment and seasonal temperature variable factor. When the capacitor is used at a temperature above the upper category temperature, insulation resistance of the capacitor may deteriorate and cause rapid current increase and a short circuit.

Do capacitors have a maximum temperature rating?

They and most capacitors DO have a maximum temperature rating. Most are rated to 85 C but for SMPS and other power devices you may need to buy 105 C rated versions. An 85 C capacitor exposed to 100 C will have a short life. It may dry up and do nothing, or pressure build-up may make it go BANG.
