here is a source of oil capacitors that they say are good for 600-800 VDC:
http://angela.com/angelaascpolypropyleneandoilcapacitors.aspxhas anybody tried these caps?
This was originally posted here on an AM FONE thread that was eliminated (went Poof!) because we turned into AOM (angry old men) when the topic was whether to replace caps or not to...
Actually, that was my thread which went "poof".
Anyway, if you look at pictures in the Angela web page, you will see that those caps are ASC products and the only voltage rating on the cans is 370vac.
Allied carries ASC caps and has the ones on the Angela site as well as similar caps rated at 440vac.
This is what prompted me to post this thread since if the 370vac units will handle 600-800 then the 440vac units should be even safer at those voltages.
Allied seems a bit cheaper for the same caps vs. Angela.
Datasheets accessible from the Allied site also show 660vac versions, but Allied doesn't carry most of those.
I guess I check Newark or Mouser.
660 would be better if they aren't too much more money.
