They represent a special type of capacitor used in AC applications to filter out unwanted interference or noise from the electrical grid: AC filter film capacitors.
These capacitors play a crucial role in improving the quality of the power used in electronic devices and systems.
The filter capacitors consist of specially developed foils that are designed to effectively filter out interference from the AC signal. They are designed to have low impedance at higher frequencies in order to dissipate them, while exhibiting high resistance at the mains frequency in order to allow the desired AC power to pass through.

Our available designs include:
- Screw Terminal or Lug Type: Provides particularly secure and vibration-resistant connections, ideal for high-current applications and industrial environments. This design ensures reliable contact even under demanding conditions.
- Radial Pin Type: Enables flexible and easy wiring, especially in applications where direct PCB mounting is not required or desired. The cable terminals facilitate integration into complex systems.
In addition to these types, we work closely with our partners to realize custom solutions for specific filtering requirements.
High-Quality Materials for Reliable Filtering Performance:
In manufacturing our filter capacitors, we place great emphasis on using high-quality materials that ensure high reliability and long service life.
The dielectric materials used, typically plastic films, exhibit low losses and offer high dielectric strength. The precise metallization of the films ensures optimal electrical contact and contributes to high current carrying capacity.
Technical Parameters for Precise Filter Design:
Our filter capacitors cover a wide range of technical parameters to ensure optimal filtering performance in your applications:
- Rated Voltages: Available in a wide range from 160 V, 250 V, 330 V, 500 V, 540 V, 600 V, 690 V, 760 V up to 850 V. This voltage range allows use in various power electronic circuits and AC capacitor applications.
- Capacitance Values: Our offering includes capacitance values from 0.010 µF to 600 µF. This wide range allows precise selection of the required capacitance for the desired filter characteristics.
- Operating Temperature Range: Our filter capacitors are specified for a wide operating temperature range from -55 to 110°C, ensuring reliable operation under various environmental conditions.
- Current Carrying Capacity: Our power capacitors are characterized by high current carrying capacity, making them ideal for demanding filtering applications in power electronics.
- Dissipation Factor (tan δ): A low dissipation factor of our film capacitors minimizes power loss in the filter and contributes to the overall system efficiency.
