  • A comprehensive capacitors portfolio for all applications

    Film capacitors

    Film capacitors are made from coated plastic film and offer several key advantages: high ripple‑current capability, low inductance, excellent temperature resistance up to 105 °C, and a long operational lifetime.
    FTCAP provides a wide range of film capacitors available in multiple designs, sizes, and performance classes. 

    Our portfolio includes numerous housing options, ensuring that you can find the ideal film capacitor for any installation environment or application.

     

    Aluminium electrolytic capacitors

    Aluminium electrolytic capacitors are made from aluminium foil, paper, and a liquid electrolyte that provides high electrical conductivity. This capacitor technology offers several advantages, including high volumetric capacity, a compact design, and a competitive cost, making it ideal for many power‑electronics applications.
    FTCAP supplies aluminium electrolytic capacitors in a wide range of performance classes, designs, and connection options. 

    Our capacitors are built with advanced manufacturing technologies and engineered to withstand harsh environments and demanding operating conditions, ensuring long‑term reliability in industries such as aeronautics, defense, marine and more.

     

    Capacitors Banks

    A capacitor bank is an assembly of multiple capacitors with the same electrical rating. Depending on the required performance, these capacitors can be connected in series or in parallel to achieve the desired voltage or capacitance level.

    Like individual capacitors, capacitor banks store electrical energy and help regulate power flow, improving stability and efficiency in electrical systems. Increasing the number of capacitors in the bank boosts the total amount of energy the system can store within a single unit. 

    Sectors that might be concerned are renewable energies, industrial applications and railway technology.
