<strong>Power</strong> <strong>capacitors</strong>, LV<strong>Power</strong> <strong>capacitors</strong>, LVPrismatic <strong>capacitors</strong>Dielectric:PolypropyleneThe CS dry-type prismatic capacitorrange covers all power and voltage requirements,from 50 to 60 Hz.The design, manufacturing and testingprocesses of <strong>capacitors</strong> with prismatictechnology guarantee the production oftop quality and long lasting <strong>capacitors</strong>.TechnologyConnectioncableCasing:Powdered zincHardened resincoverMetallisedpolypropylenefilmR.2Prismatic <strong>capacitors</strong> are equipped withdifferent basic capacities. These capacitiesare configured to obtain the voltageand power required••Basic capacitiesBasic capacities are produced with metallisedpolypropylene and are encapsulatedin thermo-hardened polyurethaneresin. This system provides a high electricand mechanical rigidity to basic capacities.••CapacitorThe set of basic capacities is introducedin a metallic casing and filled in withVermiculite. This component provides ahigh safety to the set of basic capacities,given its dielectric properties and as anon-flammable inert material.ThermostableresinSilver wirefuseAdvantages of CS prismatic <strong>capacitors</strong>This technology offers the following advantages:••Continuity of the serviceIn case of the fault of a basic capacity,it is disconnected and it does not affectthe rest, continuing with the unit's normaloperation.••Greater protectionEach basic capacity is equipped withprotections, whereby the Vermiculitecarries out the global protection tasks.This system lengthens the unit's workinglife.Level 1. Self-regeneration Level 2. Internal fuseLevel 3. Overpressure coverProtection levelsDe-metallized zoneZinc layerIn case of a fault:}}Level 1. The zinc layer evaporateswhen it reaches the "fault" point (demetallizedzone), so that the arc disappearsDe-metallized bandFault}}Level 2. In the case of high currents(high voltage, harmonics), the internalfuse disconnects the basic capacityLevel 4. Vermiculite}}Level 3. If the fault is not limited bythe fuse, gases are generated inside thefaulty capacitor, so that lifting the overpressurecover disconnects the basiccapacitor}}Level 4. For a greater security, theVERMICULITE (inert and fireproof) preventsany form of deflagrationR2-3
