PRESENTATION
Power capacitors were developed
for use in any type of installation where
it is necessary to correct the power factor.
Polypropylene film is used in its manufacture.
self-regenerating, which significantly increases the lifespan
of the product. Externally, the assembly is done with
aluminum mug without any seams or
joint in a way that prevents oil leakage
internal. If there is any technical problem that
can increase the internal pressure of the product, a
the automatic disconnection device is activated
before the mug explosion happens.
