Please replace # with the right character before ordering. Display of ordering codes for EPCOS products The ordering code for one and the same EPCOS product can be represented differently in data sheets, data books, other publications, on the EPCOS website, or in order-related documents such as shipping notes, order confirmations and product labels. 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 Important remark Hereafter mentioned capacitors with the wildcard character “#” are available either with integrated resistors with 2 terminals (B32301*****A*** series) or with pluggable ceramic base discharge resistor with 4 terminals (B32301*****B*** series). The main difference between B32301A****A*** series and B32301A****B*** series is the way of assembling the discharge resistor. The resistor of B32301A****A*** series is assembled inside of capacitor terminal cover, the ceramic resistor of B32301A****B*** is plugged into the terminal pin.

B32301A****B*** May 2016 Page 7 of 9 Film Capacitors – Power Factor Correction DeltaCap Capacitors B32300A*/ B32301A****A***/ B32301A****B*** MKDxxx-I-xx Cautions and Warnings These figures apply to the capacitor alone. Because the fixing and the terminals may influence the vibration properties, it is necessary to check stability when a capacitor is built in and exposed to vibration. Irrespective of this, you are advised not to locate capacitors where vibration amplitude reaches the maximum in strongly vibrating equipment. Mechanical protection The capacitor has to be installed in a way that mechanical damages and dents in the aluminum can are avoided. Grounding The threaded bottom stud of the capacitor has to be used for grounding. In case grounding is done via metal chassis that the capacitor is mounted to, the layer of varnish beneath the washer and nut should be removed. The maximum tightening torque is 10 Nm. Maintenance Check tightness of the connections/terminals periodically. Take current reading twice a year and compare with nominal current. Use a harmonic analyser or true effective RMS-meter. In case of current above the nominal current check your application for modifications. If a significant increase in the amount of non-linear loads has been detected, then a consultant has to be called in for a harmonic study. In case of the presence of harmonics installation of a de-tuned capacitor bank (reactors) must be considered. Check the discharge resistors/reactors and in case of doubt, check their function: (1) Power the capacitor up and down. (2) After ≤ 60 seconds the voltage between the terminals must decline to less than 75 V. Check the temperature of capacitors directly after operation for a longer period, but make sure that the capacitors have been switched off. In case of excessive temperature of individual capacitors, it is recommended to replace these capacitors, as this should be an indication for loss factor increase, which is a sign for reaching end of life. 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.

May 2016 Page 8 of 9 Important notes The following applies to all products named in this publication: 1. Some parts of this publication contain statements about the suitability of our products for certain areas of application. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical requirements that are often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We nevertheless expressly point out that such statements cannot be regarded as binding statements about the suitability of our products for a particular customer application. As a rule, EPCOS is either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar with them than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incumbent on the customer to check and decide whether an EPCOS product with the properties described in the product specification is suitable for use in a particular customer application. 2. We also point out that in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or failure before the end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the current state of the art, even if they are operated as specified. In customer applications requiring a very high level of operational safety and especially in customer applications in which the malfunction or failure of an electronic component could endanger human life or health (e.g. in accident prevention or life-saving systems), it must therefore be ensured by means of suitable design of the customer application or other action taken by the customer (e.g. installation of protective circuitry or redundancy) that no injury or damage is sustained by third parties in the event of malfunction or failure of an electronic component. 3. The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed. 4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements, some of the products described in this publication may contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e.g. because they are classed as hazardous). Useful information on this will be found in our Material Data Sheets on the Internet (www.epcos.com/material). Should you have any more detailed questions, please contact our sales offices. 5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently, the products described in this publication may change from time to time. The same is true of the corresponding product specifications. Please check therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications contained in this publication are still applicable before or when you place an order. We also reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Consequently, we cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available. The aforementioned does not apply in the case of individual agreements deviating from the foregoing for customer-specific products. 6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to the current version of the “General Terms of Delivery for Products and Services in the Electrical Industry” published by the German Electrical and Electronics Industry Association (ZVEI). 7.
