Power capacitor production

Vacuum drying and impregnation are crucial processes in the production of power capacitor.

Vacuum technology for Power Capacitor Production

Power capacitors are important components to improve the power factor, reduce losses and enhance voltage stability of electrical systems. They often contain metallized paper layers insulated by polymer films. Vacuum drying and impregnation are crucial processes in the production of power capacitor to reduce humidity down to a few ppm to prevent short circuits and to increase the capacitors dielectric properties and lifetime.

What we recommend

The right choice of vacuum systems can make processes easier. There is always the risk that insulating oil vapors could enter and condense inside the vacuum system. This creates a challenge for traditional rotary vane pumps which then require frequent maintenance with regular oil exchanges. Our dry compressing pumps of the DRYVAC family in combination with Roots blowers of the RUVAC WH and WSU families can handle oil and organic vapors well and bring you the possibility of lower power consumption.
