Overpressure disconnector

To ensure full functionality of an overpressure disconnector, the following must be observed:

1. The elastic elements must not be hindered, i.e.

– connecting lines must be flexible leads (cables).

– there must be sufficient space for expansion above the connections.

– folding crimps must not be retained by clamps.

2. Stress parameters of the capacitor must be within the IEC61071 specification.

Service life expectancy

Electrical components do not have an unlimited service life expectancy; this applies to self-healing

capacitors, too. The maximum service life expectancy may vary depending on the application the

capacitor is used in.
