Re: Interesting High Voltage capacitors

Those are DC link Capacitors. I have used them for years now in amplifiers. Not that brand though.? I used the 944U. They make them up to 1.4KV at 70UF.? Or 1.2KV at 100 UF.? That is full working voltage and you are allowed 50% more at less current. They are rated in AMPs. So in HV B plus service you would never pull any serious current. They look like a hockey puck and are easy to mount. I will look into this new brand.?

Can't? remember? if? they? stated? ESR at? ?100/120? hz? (and? also? 10? khz) ?? ?Some? of? their? biggest? caps? were? huge? monsters...? like? 150mm? /? 6"? diam !? ?

I? believe? you? are? onto? something? here !? ? ?My? 10,000uf? @? 450? vdc? lytics? work? fine,? but? I? need? a lot? of? em? in? series? for? my? 5700/7700? vdc? supply.?
