Pragati Enterprises

• Reliability: customers can easily become victims of poor quality capacitors made with non-capacitor grade-film. ABB strict selection of raw material and its first class capacitor film ensure QCap a high reliability.
• Quality: ABB low losses design decreases capacitor temperature and increases the lifetime. The optimized thermal dissipation will prevent the premature failure which is not uncommon with many low quality capacitors.
• Safety: at the end of its lifetime the capacitor must disconnect itself safely. The ABB designed overpressure disconnection device guarantees a safe disconnection.
• Consistency: a constant quality over the time is most often a challenge for manufacturers. It‘s the reason why ABB is testing 100% of the products with criteria surpassing international standards.

The QCap is the cylindrical power factor correction capacitor
based on ABB‘s latest technologies and developments. This is
the result of more than a century of knowhow on electrical engineering and 70 years expertise on capacitor technologies.

Requirements To Make A Good Capacitor:

To make a good capacitor is not so easy as it seems. ABB, as
one of the pioneers manufacturing the first metalized Power Factor correction (PFC) capacitor, believes in seven requirements
to make a good capacitor.

ABB’s PFC know-how lies in several decades of accumulated
expertise and experiences.

QCap‘s top class performances are not only guaranteed by ABB‘s
technology innovation but also ensured by mastering the manufacturing process

• Best performances of the capacitors thanks to ABB top class polypropylene film
• Stringent and unique tests procedures
• Products 100% tested with criteria surpassing international standards
• Quality controls from raw material inspection to finished products packing.
• Continuous improvement of the manufacturing process.

Top Class Raw Material:

• Polypropylene (PP) film is the primary raw material to make dry capacitors. Its quality is one of determining factors for a dry capacitor reliability and lifetime.
• There are thousands of different PP grades in the market. Even the capacitor grade films vary in properties like impurities, consistent thickness and thermal behavior.
• ABB has vast R&D experience in PP film with more than four decades of dedication in this field.
• The ABB PPMZ (Zinc metalized PP film) guarantees top capacitor quality and long lifespan.
