Würth Elektronik introduces film capacitors for interference suppression

When selecting reliable capacitors for EMI suppression in household appliances, industrial converters or motor control systems, the WCAP-FTY2 film capacitor series from Würth Elektronik offers a robust solution designed for both X1 and Y2 applications. These components are placed either between phase and neutral conductor (X1) or between phase/neutral and protective earth (Y2), depending on the interference suppression requirements of the system.

Self-Healing Construction for High Reliability
As metallized film capacitors, the WCAP-FTY2 series provides inherent self-healing capabilities. This construction significantly enhances operational safety and reduces failure risk, especially in demanding environments where power fluctuations and electrical noise are common.

Efficient EMI Suppression Across Power Applications
The capacitors are tailored for use in mains filters of household devices and in industrial EMC applications such as converters and motor drives. Their design enables stable performance and compliance with safety requirements in systems where consistent suppression of conducted interference is essential.

Support Tools for Fast and Accurate Component Selection
Engineers benefit from Würth Elektronik’s additional service offerings through the REDEXPERT online platform. Individually measured impedance curves simplify the selection process, helping designers choose the most suitable component for their operating conditions. Free samples and an available design kit further support rapid prototyping and development.
