Type BVX capacitors are convenient for smoothing the
spikes generated by SCR's. All have low inductance and use
low-loss dielectric film. All oil seal locations are soldered,
assuring trouble free operation. The type BVX
capacitors are designed for demanding usage in the electrical
industry, to take the "Peak" off of an SCR's pulse, especially
for large horsepower motor controls. Al items in this series
are low inductance, use polypropylene film dielectric. Liquid
impregnant has a flash point greater than 200șC.
Capacitance Tolerance is ±10% of nominal value;
closer tolerance available on special order. Standard 10% value is not marked on
capacitors.
Temperature Range is -55șC to +75șC with
nameplate voltage applied. Storage temperature range is -55șC
to +90șC.
Test Voltage: A DC test voltage range equal to 200%
of the rated peak AC voltage for 1 minute, at 25șC.
Design Life of type BVX capacitors, is 40,000
hours at +65șC. A suitable life test is the application of
a DC voltage equal to 140% of the peak AC voltage for 1,000
hours at +65șC ambient temperature. Compliance is indicated
with less than 2 failures in a sample lot of 12.
Power Factor will not exceed .03% over the
operating temperatures range, measured at 1KHz. Mounting:
Capacitors are designed to be mounted in any position. Case
Construction: Cases are drawn oval cans, made of terneplated steel. The
cover is double-roll seamed and soldered. Soldering avoids the problems
encountered with sealant-gasket techniques. The case is painted with grey
lacquer. Terminals: Are glazed steatite, with all sealing
points metallized and solder sealed. No gaskets are used, avoiding potential
leakage problems. Studs are electrotinned brass, 1/4-20
threads. Torque: On terminals should not exceed 20
pound-inches. Brackets: Footed mounting brackets are
available at extra charge.
