This family of capacitors is designed for high-current applications, such as
(1) SCR commutation, (2) snubbers for SCRs, GTOs and other power
semiconductors, and (3) for any other circuits where the combination of
frequency and voltage results in high RMS currents. An Application Note is
provided to assist in the proper use of these devices. It is strongly recom-
mended that users refer to GE engineers for assistance if there are any
questions as to the correct selection of capacitors. The A97F8600/
A97F8700 Series have an all-film dielectric and, due to the much lower
dissipation factor, can handle much higher currents than the older film paper
designs.
Advances in capacitor Dielectric technology have made paint
unnecesary, in most cases. This along with GE’s commitment to
environmental programs has led to the elimination of painted cases in
this product line. Removal of the paint has minimal affect on the RMS
current ratings; see the standard ratings charts for proper application.
