Fig. 1 shows the film/foil arrangements in a crosssectional view for common PCC designs: the diagram shows the most common standard version with the metallization on one side. The winding technology This developed winding technology can be used to implement absolutely flat and wrinkle-free stacked windings in “power cap dimensions” for PCC1) using metallized polymer films, starting with PP down to 2.5 μm and PET of 1.8 μm, Fig. 2, 3. The PCC process flowchart describes the main production steps. The flexibility and extremely high process quality of the production line and the polygon winder (PW) are important for this application. A special “wavy-smooth” cut combination produces a maximum effective contact surface via a defined small offset and precisely wound master capacitors allowing a specially optimized metal-spraying and contacting process. The result is an outstandingly high pulse-current handling capability far beyond the minimum requirements laid down in IEC and EN standards and © EPCOS AG - Edition August 2014 1) Winding of capacitor element 5) Testing of active winding with metallized film 6) Wiring, e.g. with busbar and 2) Metal-end spray encapsulation 3) Thermal treatment 7) 100% final inspection 4) Sawing of active winding Fig. 2: Main working steps without the contact edge problem, a well-known and dangerous constriction effect at the film edges of low-cost MKP windings. Process flow The process flow for PCC with power cap formatted stacked windings is shown in Fig. 2. Contacting of windings The end faces of the windings are contacted by metal spraying (Schooping) to ensure a reliable and low-inductance connection between the metallized film layers and to the connection system. After this working step the capacitor windings will be connected with leads e. g. busbars which are welded onto the metal-end spray layer, Fig. 3. Impregnation and sealing The active winding elements are heated and dried for a defined period in vacuum. In this way, air and moisture are extracted from the inner capacitor to avoid any oxidation effects at the electrodes or any partial discharges. This process step ensures excellent +capacitance stability and a long useful life. The Low Power designs are boxed (resin-filled) or unpackaged (naked). 1) PCCs can naturally also be designed with flat windings.

The varying representations of the ordering codes are due to different processes employed and do not affect the specifications of the respective products. Detailed information can be found on the Internet under www.epcos.com/orderingcodes © EPCOS AG - Edition August 2014 Cautions and Warnings PRELIMINARY Cautions & warnings In case of dents of more than 1 mm depth or any other mechanical damage, capacitors must not be used at all. Check tightness of the connections/terminals periodically. The energy stored in capacitors may be lethal. To prevent any chance of shock, discharge and short-circuit the capacitor before handling. Failure to follow cautions may result, worst case, in premature failures, bursting and fire. Safety Electrical or mechanical misapplication of capacitors may be hazardous. Personal injury or property damage may result from bursting of the capacitor or from expulsion of melted material due to mechanical disruption of the capacitor. Ensure good, effective grounding for capacitor enclosures. Observe appropriate safety precautions during operation (self recharging phenomena and the high energy stored in capacitors). Handle capacitors carefully, because they may still be charged even after disconnection. The terminals of capacitors, connected bus bars and cables as well as the devices may also be energized. Follow good engineering practice. Thermal load After installation of the capacitor it is necessary to verify that maximum hot-spot temperature is not exceeded at extreme service conditions. Mechanical protection The capacitor has to be installed in a way that mechanical damages and dents in the case are avoided. Storage and operating conditions Do not use or store capacitors in corrosive atmosphere, especially where chloride gas, sulfide gas, acid, alkali, salt or the like are present. In dusty environments regular maintenance and cleaning especially of the terminals is required to avoid conductive path between phases and/or phases and ground. Useful life expectancy Electrical components do not have an unlimited service life expectancy; this applies to self-healing capacitors too. The maximum service life expectancy may vary depending on the application the capacitor is used in.
