6 FAQs about [Key parameter indicators of capacitors]

How to determine the health status of a capacitor?

Utilizing the least mean square (LMS) algorithm to estimate the ESR and the capacitance of the capacitor and by comparing this with the initial capacitor values at the current operating temperature, the health status of the system can be deduced.

What is the error range for determining capacitance of a capacitor?

When using Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) as a primary indicator for condition monitoring the error varies with a minimum error of 1.2 % and a maximum error of 10 % in literature. On the other hand, the error range for determining the capacitance of a capacitor is between 0.18 % and 7.2 %.

How do you determine the capacitance of a capacitor?

The basic principle is to determine the capacitance or ESR by using the capacitor voltage and ripple current information at a low frequency and a specific medium frequency, respectively as shown in Fig. 3 b. One method in this technology is the use of current injection.

How can a capacitor be detected?

Therefore, it can be detected by ordinary voltage sensors and processing devices. The state observer is used to estimate the voltage of the capacitor. The ESR and C are obtained and adjusted them according to the difference between the estimated voltage and the actual voltage value.

How to detect changes in capacitor ESR and capacitance?

A simplified method for detecting changes in capacitor ESR and capacitance is proposed in . The voltage and current of the capacitor are measured and pass through the BPF in the frequency range of the dominant region of ESR or capacitance. The output of BPF is continuously multiplied by the root mean square (rms) calculation.

What is the nominal value of a capacitor?

The nominal value of the Capacitance, C of a capacitor is the most important of all capacitor characteristics. This value measured in pico-Farads (pF), nano-Farads (nF) or micro-Farads (μF) and is marked onto the body of the capacitor as numbers, letters or coloured bands.
