TDK Corporation has recently introduced a new series of EPCOS lug-type aluminum electrolytic capacitors, designed to meet the growing demands of modern industrial applications. These capacitors are an enhanced version of the previous EPCOS series, offering up to a 25% improvement in ripple current capability, making them ideal for high-performance power systems.

The new compact series features a range of sizes, with diameters ranging from 22 mm to 35 mm and heights from 25 mm to 55 mm. This makes them highly suitable for space-constrained designs without compromising on performance or reliability.

Available in voltage ranges from 200 V DC to 450 V DC, these capacitors offer capacitance values from 82 μF to 3300 μF. They are rated for continuous operation up to 3000 hours at 105 °C, ensuring long-term stability and durability in demanding environments.

These capacitors are particularly well-suited for use in industrial inverters and power supplies, where high efficiency, low noise, and thermal stability are essential. Their improved design helps reduce system size while maintaining excellent electrical performance, making them a preferred choice for engineers working on next-generation power electronics solutions.
