Vishay HDMKP Power Electronics Capacitors
Vishay HDMKP Power Electronics Capacitors (PECs) are designed for energy transmission and distribution across high, medium, and low voltage networks, enhancing network quality. These capacitors promote CO₂ reduction and minimize losses in long-distance HVDC transmissions, making them an eco-friendly choice. The HDMKP power electronics capacitors serve as RFI filters and voltage and frequency converters in traction and industrial drives. Typical applications include DC links in wind turbine converters and impulse discharge capacitors for magnetizing and welding.
