Why Should Be Careful of Cheap Film Capacitors

Electronic products are composed of different electronic components, and the electronic components that make up electronic products include transistors, diodes, capacitors, resistors, potentiometers, radiators, etc. These electronic components form the majority of electronic product categories. Different brands and different models have different functions and prices, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for, and the quality of electronic products with high prices is usually better than those with low prices. The same is true for electronic components. If low-priced electronic components want to make a profit, they can only reduce the cost of materials. If the cost is low, the quality will be poor.

Film capacitors in electronic components have high insulation resistance, wide frequency response, non-polarity, wide temperature range, high withstand voltage, etc. They are widely used in the electronic field, such as household appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, etc. Almost every family will buy it, and the market space is huge. In order to make money, many unscrupulous businesses reduce costs and produce low-quality film capacitors for sale.

Inferior film capacitors have low production cost, poor quality, low insulation resistance, large dielectric loss, and are not resistant to high temperature and high voltage. When the temperature is high, the use time of inferior film capacitors will be shortened greatly, and they will be easily damaged. When used in electronic products, problems will easily occur, and the life time of electronic appliances may also be shortened. In severe cases, electronic products will explode and cause fires.

Therefore, when purchasing film capacitors, you should shop around to choose suitable and high-quality film capacitors.
