High-temperature prismatic capacitors released by New Yorker Electronics

12 January 2021

Featuring a high capacitance at high voltages and temperatures, the NHR-Slimpack capacitors released by New Yorker Electronics have a 3,000 hour life at full-rated conditions and withstand up to 80 g vibration. Tested for altitudes up to 80,000 ft, the series meets the most demanding military, aerospace, industrial and down-hole applications.

According to manufacturer Cornell Dubilier Electronics, the long-life film capacitor series is poised to replace Source: New Yorker ElectronicsSource: New Yorker Electronicscostly banks of wet tantalum capacitors with considerable size and cost advantages over series-parallel capacitors. Type NHR is a spin-off of the company’s Flatpack series that has been proven in military and aerospace applications for nearly 30 years. The company claims it has had considerable success in helping customers replace large series-parallel banks of wet tantalum capacitors with fewer components, saving valuable space, weight and cost.

Able to withstand operating temperatures from -55° C to 150° C, NHR aluminum electrolytic capacitors are constructed with rectangular stainless-steel cases and laser-welded covers that prevent dry-out. Components within the NHR series are available from 75 V DC through 300 V DC with capacitance values ranging from 60 µF to 960 µF. There are four case lengths available in 0.5 in increments from 1.5 in to 3.0 in. All cases measure 0.5 in thin by 1.0 in wide.
