AC FILTERING Medium Power Film Capacitors FLB (RoHS Compliant) The FLB series uses metallized polypropylene dielectric, alu- minum can, impregnated with soft PU specially treated to have a very high dielectric strength in operating conditions up to 85C. The FLB has been designed with overpressure disconnected device. They are suitable for power factor correction and out- put AC filtering for power converters, UPS systems, solar inverters and motor drives etc. APPLICATIONS The FLB capacitor is particularly designed for AC filtering and power factor correction.

Unlike aluminum electrolytic film capacitors do not have a catastrophic failure mode. Film capacitors simply experience a parametric loss of capacitance of about 5% from initial value, with no risk of short circuit. The capacitor continues to be functional even after this 5% decrease.
