    Iris Power Epoxy Mica Capacitors (80 PF) : Partial Discharge Sensors For Testing Motors and Generators

    Uploaded by

    mani_208ee
    Iris Power Epoxy Mica Capacitors (EMCs) are designed to detect Partial Discharge (PD) activity in motors and generators without interfering with their operation. The EMCs use an epoxy-impregnated mica splitting dielectric to block power frequencies and detect high frequency PD signals. Independent testing showed the 16kV EMC can withstand over 1,000 hours of exposure to 30kV, translating to an expected lifetime of 60,000 years, significantly exceeding typical motor coil lifetimes. Iris Power EMCs are safe for permanent installation in operating equipment worldwide.
