Intelligent Capacitor Solutions
High quality and long life characterize Aerovox film capacitors
for HID and sign ballast lighting applications. Like all Aerovox
products, our rugged, reliable capacitors are constructed using high
quality materials and Lean Six Sigma manufacturing practices. All
capacitors undergo 100% electrical testing, including: Accelerated
Life Testing (ALT) for 2000 hours at 125% voltage rating and
temperature at 105°C , fault current, and mechanical testing.
Aerovox maintains manufacturing facilities in China and India to
enable quick turn-around for shipping and delivery worldwide. If
you have specialized needs, our flexible manufacturing processes
allow us to quickly provide custom configurations. For emergency
lighting applications, please see our axial wrap and fill capacitor line.
Aerovox provides intelligent capacitor solutions.
Aerovox produces both oil-filled and dry capacitors for the HID and sign
ballast lighting markets. Constructed with film designed to withstand the
rigors of the application, these units are built to operate up to 105°C.
HID lighting capacitors are built with a ±3% tolerance on capacitance,
and are designed to operate for a minimum of 60,000 hours. Sign ballast
capacitors are constructed with film/foil technology and have tolerances
based on application requirements.
