Long Life, 85/85 THB-Rated AC Filter Capacitors for Harsh Environments
Designed for harsh environments, the ALH series of AC-rated filter capacitors offer 50% greater life than competitive 85/85 THB-rated film capacitors.
Designed for harsh environments, the ALH series of AC-rated filter capacitors offer 50% greater life than competitive 85/85 THB-rated film capacitors. The Temperature, Humidity at Bias (THB) test exposes parts to the harsh conditions of 85 °C at 85% relative humidity with rated voltage applied. Testing has been validated for 1,500 hours while competitors validate their series for 1,000 hours under the same conditions. This demanding test simulates the extremely harsh operating conditions encountered in many commercial and industrial inverter applications that can cause conventional film capacitors to fail early due to moisture penetration.
The ALH Series is optimized for AC harmonic filtering on the input and output of inverter circuits. With high rms current ratings for handling higher-ordered harmonics.
• Optimized AC Voltage performance
• THB 85 °C / 85 % RH, 1500h at rated voltage
• Harmonic filtering on the input and output of inverter circuits
• Self-healing and low loss
• Suitable for high-frequency applications
• UL Listed, AEC-Q200 Qualified
Applications Include:
Solar, EV, and other inverters that are subjected to the harshest natural environmental conditions, Backup, UPS, portable power systems, Motor drives, Traction and other transportation systems, AC-tuned harmonic reduction filters

Type QAS, Arc Suppressor/Snubber Network
Type QAS will extend the operating life of electronic and electro-mechanical devices by reducing and/or eliminating the electrical arcing, noise, and EMF. These electrical conditions often cause early failures in relays, switch contacts, and solid-state components such as SCRs and TRIACs.

3 CELL DSF & DGH
Three-cell devices offer greater energy potential and power output than single or dual-cell parts in standard PCB layouts
3-cell DSF & DGH capacitors provide very fast power discharge that cannot be matched by conventional capacitors or batteries. That large capacity makes it possible to support brief power interruptions, supplement batteries, or even be used in place of batteries in many applications.

TYPE MXT, X2, EMI/RFI Suppression Capacitors, Harsh Environment
Type MXT Series Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitor, designed to suppress conducted electromagnetic/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) at a circuit’s power input. These capacitors are perfect for use in harsh environments having met the demanding 85/85 THB (Temperature, Humidity, Bias) test requirements. Class X2 capacitors, like the MXT, are typically connected across the AC input to prevent interference from spreading through power lines or other devices on the same circuit.
