SERIES CE
Applications: Mainly for indoor applications, to reduce the reactive power component of an AC circuit in order to improve its efficiency, reduce extra, current, load and losses. The capacitors are especially suited for environments having consistently high ambient temperatures and high harmonic levels.
Container: Enclosed in Cylindrical Aluminum Containers with mounting stud at the bottom.
Encapsulation: Dry type filling resin.
Conforming to: IEC 60831-1 & 2 (2014-03) “Shunt Power Capacitors of the self-healing type for AC Systems having a rated voltage up to and including 1000 V”, ISO 9001:2015.
Rated Volts: 220~660 VAC, For other voltages, please inquire.
Rated kVAr: 1~50kVAr, For other voltages, please inquire.
Rated Frequency: 50/60 Hz.
No. of Phases: Available in Single as well as Three Phase.
Connection: For Three Phase: Delta
DESIGN/CONSTRUCTION: AMBER series ‘CE’ Low Voltage Power Capacitors in “Dry & Protected” design are manufactured out of Low Loss Self-Healing Metallized Polypropylene Film, impregnated in dry epoxy resin. The capacitors incorporate internal pressure disconnection system which fully protects the capacitors against bursting in case of fault.
DISCHARGE RESISTORS: Fitted to reduce the voltage to a level below 75V within 3 minutes of switch-off.
TERMINATION: Single phase (2- way), and three phase (3-way) Terminal Block.
HOUSING: Cylindrical Aluminum Can with mounting stud, and steel cover.

WARNING: Capacitor replacement may be hazardous since residual voltage may be present across the capacitor terminals. Always discharge capacitors by short-circuiting the terminals with an insulated wire, even though discharge resistors may have been provided.
ATTENTION: Capacitors covered by this catalogue comply with international standards such as IEC, VDE, BS, EN, UL etc. It is the user’s responsibility to take utmost care both in the selection of capacitors for a particular usage, and their correct installation. AMBER shall not be liable for any consequential damages occurring for any reasons what-so-ever.
