Screw Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor 1500uF 250V
This screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 1,500 µF and 250 V is designed for high-current, high-voltage applications where solid bulk energy storage is required. With its robust construction, large capacitance and elevated voltage rating, it is well suited to smoothing, bulk filtering and energy storage duties in heavy-duty power systems. The screw-terminal design allows secure mechanical and electrical connection via heavy gauge leads or busbars; no flimsy leads, but ready for serious installations.
In operation this capacitor acts as a reservoir and buffer in a power system: it absorbs ripple, handles surge demands and stabilizes voltage rails under transient load conditions. Because of its large size (typical screw-terminal devices in this range are physically substantial) and higher voltage rating, it is deployed where regular radial capacitors would not suffice either for raw supply filtering, DC-link duties, or energy-pulse storage. Its construction emphasises longevity, durability and reliable electrical performance over many cycles and elevated temperature operation.
Mechanically and electrically, the screw-terminal format simplifies service and replacement; the terminal design facilitates clamping and heavy wiring, making it suited for industrial, power-conversion or large scale electronics environments. Though not as small and fast as surface-mount parts, this type of capacitor brings sheer energy capacity and rugged mounting to systems that need stable hold-up time, filtering of heavy ripple currents, or where space and service access permit. It delivers dependable performance in demanding contexts.
Features:
- Large capacitance: 1,500 µF for substantial energy storage.
- High rated voltage: 250 V to accommodate elevated DC rails.
- Screw‐terminal connection for heavy duty wiring, busbars or mechanical robustness.
- Aluminum electrolytic construction: cost-effective for high capacity compared to film or super caps.
- Suitable for industrial and power applications where durability and ripple-current capacity matter.
