Engineered Film Capacitors Built for Your Application
When standard capacitors can’t meet your performance requirements, Electronic Concepts delivers precision-engineered solutions tailored to your exact specifications.
Built Different. Built Better.
Extreme operating conditions require enhanced thermal or voltage performance
Volume requirements justify a tailored design for cost and performance optimisation
Space constraints demand optimised packaging and mounting configurations
Critical reliability requires application-specific validation and testing
The PowerPath Process: From Concept to Confidence
- Operating environment and conditions (temperature, voltage, current)
- Physical and mounting requirements
- Performance specifications and tolerances
- Regulatory and certification needs
- Production volumes and timelines
- Budget parameters
- Dielectric material selection
- Electrical specification optimisation
- Thermal management design
- Mechanical configuration and termination
- Manufacturing process planning
- Functional prototypes for electrical validation
- Form-fit prototypes for mechanical integration
- Environmental testing samples
- Rapid iteration based on test results
- Electrical performance testing (capacitance, ESR, dissipation factor)
- Environmental stress testing (temperature cycling, humidity, vibration)
- Life testing and accelerated ageing
- Compliance testing (RoHS, REACH, UL)
- Production process qualification
- Quality system integration (AS9100 certified)
- Supply chain management
- Ongoing technical support and design optimisation
Engineered Solutions in Action
Challenge: A German automotive OEM required DC-link capacitors for an 800V EV platform that would endure extreme temperature cycling and have a 15-year lifespan.
Solution: Engineered high-ripple polypropylene film capacitors with enhanced thermal management and accelerated life testing validation.
Result: Capacitors have exceeded 10,000-hour equivalent life testing and are now in production across multiple vehicle platforms.
Challenge: A medical device manufacturer required high-voltage filter capacitors for MRI systems that met stringent EMI and safety requirements.
Solution: Designed specialised polypropylene capacitors with enhanced insulation systems and medical-grade certifications.
Result: UL60601 certified solution delivering reliable performance in installations across Europe.
Challenge: A renewable energy company required DC-link capacitors for 1500V solar string inverters operating in harsh outdoor environments.
Solution: Engineered metallised film capacitors with IP65-rated enclosures and extended temperature ratings.
Result: Five-year field deployment with zero failures in installations from Spain to Finland.
