EN 61071:2007

Capacitors for power electronics

This International Standard applies to capacitors for power electronics applications. The operating frequency of the systems in which these capacitors are used is usually up to 15kHz, while the pulse frequencies may be up to 5 to 10 times the operating frequency. The standard distinguishes between a.c. and d.c. capacitors which are considered as components when mounted in enclosures. This standard covers an extremely wide range of capacitor technologies for numerous applications, e.g. overvoltage protection, d.c. and a.c. filtering, switching circuits, d.c. energy storage, auxiliary inverters, etc.

Kondensatoren der Leistungselektronik

Condensateurs pour électronique de puissance

La présente Norme internationale s'applique aux condensateurs pour les applications de l'électronique de puissance. La fréquence de fonctionnement des systèmes utilisant ces condensateurs atteint généralement 15 kHz, mais les fréquences d'impulsions peuvent atteindre 5 à 10 fois la fréquence de fonctionnement. Une distinction est faite dans la présente norme entre les condensateurs à courants alternatifs et les condensateurs à courants continus qui sont considérés comme des composants lorsqu'ils sont montés dans un boîtier fermé. Cette norme couvre une très grande variété de technologies de condensateurs pour répondre à de nombreuses applications, par exemple protection contre les surtensions, filtrage à courant continu et à courant alternatif, circuits de commutation, stockage d'énergie à courant continu, convertisseurs auxiliaires, etc.
