Volcano EFCON-DH TCQ-0606-6 Capacitor (2021)

Volcano EFCON-DH Capacitor TCQ-0606-6 (2021 Model)

The Volcano EFCON-DH TCQ-0606-6 is not just a part; it is a very important backup. This series came out in 2021 and was designed to deal with the thermal expansion and high-frequency ripples that are common in modern power conversion units.

The EFCON-DH series uses a reinforced dielectric structure, which keeps your automated systems stable even in heavy seas or engine rooms with high ambient temperatures. This is different from regular capacitors, which break down when they are constantly vibrating.

Technical Specifications

Features and Advantages

1. Advanced Thermal Dissipation: The TCQ-0606-6 has a new case that is designed to get rid of heat faster than older models from 2019 and 2020.
2. Low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance): This greatly increases the lifespan of nearby semiconductor parts by reducing energy loss as heat.
3. Vibration Resistant: It is internally potted to protect it from the constant harmonic frequencies that are present in heavy industrial and maritime machinery.
4. 2021 Dielectric Standard: Uses the newest chemical electrolyte formulas to make things last longer and reduce leakage current.
5. High Ripple Current Handling: This is a feature that was designed to reduce the dirty power that variable frequency drives (VFDs) make.

Our Engineers’ Pro Tips:

Always make sure the TCQ-0606-6 is installed with the right polarity, and if it will be in salt air, put a thin layer of dielectric grease on the terminals. These units are in their prime chemical state because they were made in 2021. However, if the unit has been in cold storage for more than 24 months, I suggest a short reforming period before putting it under full load.
