A week ago I emailed BHC Aerovox, Nichicon and several other
manufacturers, who advertise high quality power capacitors, but they
have not responded. Several others responded saying they don't carry
this cap. value. Where can I go to obtain high quality power caps.?
I need a pair of replacement power capacitors to replace the one's
originally manufactured by Nichicon and marked as follows
CE W
Nichicon 85°C
22,000 uf
80WV
60322
Application: One cap. is used on the power supply +60VDC rail and
another on the -60VDC rail.
Insulation color: black
Dia.=63.5 mm (desired to maintain this value for mtg. reasons)
Height approx. 120 mm (approx. max. ht.)
Spacing betwn screw terms = 28.6 mm
I'd like to upgrade to a higher voltage and temp. e.g. 105°C, if feasible.
Increasing cap. value is worth considering if the associated circuitry
can deal with the extended inrush current, etc.
What value of ESR (meas. freq.?) is desirable for these caps used in a
120W (8 ohm) audio power amplifier?
Thanks for your help and recommendations. Jim
