Hi, I'm building a parallel resonant tank. I need a capacitor bank capable of 500Vrms and 500Arms at about 5uF. The bank will be operating at frequencies between 30-80kHz. I have found some polyester metallised film capacitors on ebay; B81130 X2 MKP/SH 40/100/21/C 0.22uf 20% 275V
by epcos. What can each one take in terms of current.
I can create a bank rated at 550Vac at 5.5uF - my question is could this bank handle it and how much power would it dissipate. Also if it can handle 500Arms - what is the maximum it could handle.
thanks
Note: last week I asked a question about a coupling transformer - I have sorted it now, impedance on primary was too high.
