Function Reduce the harmonic components overlapped to the fundamental frequency.

Rated Voltages • 525 – 640+ Vac - Input • 330+ Vac - Output (Star Connection) • 440+ Vac - Output (Delta Connection) • > 690 Vac - Wind Generators

Demanded Life Expectancy • >10 years (100K Hours) – Currently at 60k (C4AF)

© 2019 KEMET Corporation Life Expectancy

• Two derating equations exist:

1. Life Expectancy vs. Voltage:

8 LE = LN x (VN / V)

LE = Life expectancy at operating voltage (hours) LN = Life expectancy at nominal voltage (hours) VN = Nominal voltage Un (V) V = Operating voltage (V) Note: The above formula is valid within ± 20% of the nominal voltage.

2. Life Expectancy vs. Temperature:

LE = LTo x 2 (To – Ths ) / 7 LE = Life expectancy at operating temperature (hours) LTo = Life expectancy at 70°C (hours) To = Reference temperature (70°C) Ths = Hot spot case temperature (≤ 70°C)

Note: These equations can be used together
