EPR Vishay ESTA High Voltage DC Capacitors RIPPLE % RIPPLE The sum of the peak ripple voltage and the DC voltage should not exceed the rated voltage. Refer to graph fig. 1 for permissible peak-to-peak ripple voltage as a percentage of rated voltage for various frequencies. 30 20 10 TYPE EPR The EPR range of capacitors are manufactured using a mixed dielectric material that consists of polyester /polypropylene film and capacitor tissue. They are impregnated and filled with a mineral oil. The container is a robust rectangular polypropylene case. The internal construction is designed to prevent movement when the capacitor is subjected to mechanical shock or vibration. An inert welding process ensures hermetic sealing. Standard terminations are M10 threaded inserts which eliminates the necessity for large voltage terminals. The case has an extremely low affinity for moisture and is resistant to virtually all electrical environments. Brackets can be welded on as required. Note • The impregnant used is a non toxic highly purifiedand inhibited mineral oil. APPLICATIONS The EPR range is designed specifically for DC applications such as filters: • Coupling • Rapid discharge 100 1000 10 000 FREQUENCY Hz Fig. 1 POWER FACTOR The power factor is variable, and is a function of temperature and frequency see fig. 2.

The insulance (MΩ x μF) is nominally 10 000 s at + 20 °C. (Measurements taken after 1 minute with an applied voltage of 500 V) MΩ x MF • By-pass 0 10 • Pulse forming networks 105 104 103 • Radar 102 • Laser Insulance vs. Temperature Typical Values - 40 0 40 80 Fig. 3 • X-ray equipment LIFE EXPECTANCY Temperature range is - 40 °C to + 85 °C. Derating is required for operation at higher temperatures. TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT Capacitance will increase by 2 % per 100 °C temperature rise. EPR type capacitors are designed for a life exceptancy of 50 000 h at 65 °C. To achieve the same life expectancy at 85 °C derate to 60 % of rated voltage fig. 4. Hours TEMPERATURE RANGE 105 104 103 CAPACITANCE RANGE 0.002 μF to 2 μF. The tolerance is ± 10 %. Other tolerance are available on request.
