Based on common aluminum electrolyticA polarized capacitor exhibiting a very high capacitanceThat property of a system of conductors and dielectrics which permits the storage of electricity when potential difference exists between the conductors. Its value is expressed as the ratio of a quantity of electricity to a potential difference. A capacitance value is always positive./volume ratio that consists of two electrodes immersed in an electrolyte, with a chemical film that acts as a dielectricThe insulating material between the plates of the capacitor. The material is chosen for its ability to permit electrostatic attraction and repulsion to take place across it. The material will have the property that energy required to establish an electric field is recoverable in whole or in part, as electric energy. In other words, a good dielectric material is a poor conductor of electricity while being an effective supporter of electrostatic fields. on one or both electrodes. Electrolytic capacitors are made by winding either plain or etched foils on which an oxide has been formed on the surface of one (either anodeAn electrodeA solid electric conductor through which an electric current enters or leaves in a medium through which current enters any nonmetallic conductor. or cathodeThe negative electrodeA solid electric conductor through which an electric current enters or leaves in a medium of a capacitor.) film. The etching of the foil increases the surface area and a considerable increase in capacitanceThat property of a system of conductors and dielectrics which permits the storage of electricity when potential difference exists between the conductors. Its value is expressed as the ratio of a quantity of electricity to a potential difference. A capacitance value is always positive. can thus be obtained. capacitor technology SP Cap uses solid polymer electrolyte instead of liquid electrolyte.

Relative to other electrolytic capacitors, tantalum capacitors have low resistance, low leakage, and can operate in higher temperature environments, but non-electrolytics are even better in these regards.. Also in terms of safetyClass X capacitors are used in “across-the-line” applications where their failure would not lead to electric shock. Class X safety caps are used between the “live” wires carrying the incoming AC current. In this position, a capacitor failure should not cause any electrical shock hazards, rather, a capacitor failure “between-the-lines” would usually cause a fuse or circuit breaker to open. the Panasonic SP Cap is a very good choice. The SP-Cap does not easily ignite or “smoke” at over-voltage conditions or in the case of a short circuit. If a defect occurs, the polymer will become self-insulating and shuts off the current flow.
