Induction heater caps wanted

Jorrit, Tue Feb 24 2015, 04:30PM

Hello,

I'm looking for some big induction heater caps. I already found the Eurofarad capacitors on ebay but those wont ship to the Netherlands.

If anybody has some laying around please let me know smile

Thanks in advance

Ebay.de
e.g.

AVX TPC FPX66-9177-B 3µF 800V DC

3µF 800V DC LCC 1D8FPG66-9177--A

Later edit.
I have bought two items recently, they were both AVX FPG86X0155J / 1.5uF /2000Vdc
from here:

they are out of stocks and requires some time to fill up. shades

Those wont work, terminals are way too tiny for the kinda currents u have in a ih tank.

Well, that’s my idea is to use four AVX FPG86X0155J 1.5uF capacitors in parallel. In theory each capacitor is rated for I = 56 Arms, that’s a 224 Arms in total, but in practice I want to push this up to 300-350 Arms. cheesey
