Capacitors Accessories

Capacitors are vital passive components in electronic circuits, storing and releasing electrical energy. However, to optimise their performance and integrate them effectively, various accessories are utilised. Capacitor accessories are essential supplementary components that enhance the performance, functionality, installation, and reliability of capacitors in various electronic circuits. These accessories ensure the capacitors are securely installed and protected from environmental factors. Capacitor accessories include multiple types of mounting brackets, washers, mounting clips, insulating boots, and terminal covers.

What is the Significance of Capacitor Accessories?

Capacitor accessories are a cost-effective solution for maintaining capacitors' integrity and performance. They not only help with proper mounting and protection but also extend the capacitor's lifespan by safeguarding it from physical and electrical hazards. Additionally, these accessories can enhance the installation's aesthetic appearance, ensuring a neat and organised setup.

Types of Capacitor Accessories Available at Enrgtech:

Our range of capacitor accessories includes a broad range of capacitor components ideal for use with cylindrical, oval, round, and rectangular capacitors. Some accessories for capacitors and their functions include:

• Mounting Brackets – A mounting bracket is used to securely mount capacitors to a surface, preventing movement and minimising vibration. They come in various types, including a footed bracket and a wrap-around bracket. 
• Capacitor End Caps – Capacitor end caps are small, cylindrical components designed to cover the ends of capacitors, typically cylindrical ones. They protect, insulate, and provide mechanical support to capacitors within a circuit.
• Insulating Boots – Made from high-grade insulation materials, these boots cover the terminals of capacitors, protecting against short circuits. Examples of insulating boots include a protective boot and a terminal boot.
• Capacitor Mount Pad – A capacitor mount pad provides a stable and secure base for capacitors, ensuring they remain in place during operation. It also helps reduce the vibration and noise, thus extending the capacitor's lifespan.
• Mounting Clamps – Mounting clamps are capacitor clips designed to hold capacitors securely within their grip, ensuring a tight fit and preventing movement. These clamps are versatile and can be adjusted to accommodate capacitors of different sizes.
• Capacitor Washer – A capacitor washer is typically used in conjunction with mounting hardware for capacitors to distribute the load evenly. They prevent damage to the capacitor and mounting surface and help maintain electrical insulation where needed.
