SAMWHA Electric’s “VP” series

In consideration of demand by Electric Vehicle market, Samwha Electric successfully developed 135℃ guaranteed Aluminum electrolytic capacitor. This was very first development of such product in Korean market and it led to exclusive approval in Samwha’s domestic EV maket.

“VP” series is developed with low resistance high temperature electrolyte and high efficient raw material. It has high reliability in temperature range of -40℃ to +135℃. Additionally, it has low rate of capacitance change at high voltage and temperature which offers electrical reliability as well as long lifetime. Lower resistance at high temperature provides help to minimization and lifetime extension of circuits and it makes “VP” series ideal for regenerative brake system and power supply of electric vehicles.

Available up to 35V, 10000㎌ and variety of sizes from Φ10×12.5mm to Φ18x40mm, “VP” series satisfies environmental factors such as RoHS and “Halogen Free”.

The series, developed in Samwha Electric’s R&D center in Cheong-ju, was closely directed by Samwha Capacitor Group Chairman and CEO Young Joo Oh. Rapid growth of EV markets worldwide will lead to increase in demand of capacitors. Samwha Electric already provides many related series from on-board applications to EV chargers. Beginning with “VP” series which obtained exclusive approval from Korean EV manufacturer, Samwha Electric will expand their market.
