Capacitor


Our CBB80 PFC capacitors are designed for gas discharge/HID/MH/HPS lamps, with 12-50μF options, 250V AC, CE certification, long lifespan, ideal for street and industrial lighting.

Product Overview

Optimize the performance of your gas discharge lighting system with our CBB80 MKP Power Factor Correction (PFC) Capacitors, engineered specifically for HID (High-Intensity Discharge), metal halide (MH), high pressure sodium (HPS), mercury vapor, and fluorescent lamps. These capacitors effectively improve the power factor of lighting circuits, reduce reactive power loss, lower energy consumption, and extend the lifespan of ballasts and lamps, making them an essential component for street lighting, industrial high-bay, and commercial lighting systems.
Manufactured with premium MKP (Metallized Polypropylene Film) dielectric, these CBB80 capacitors deliver exceptional electrical stability, low self-heating, and a long service life of over 30,000 hours. Fully CE certified and compliant with EN 61048 / EN 61049 international safety standards, they operate reliably at a rated voltage of 250V AC (50/60Hz) across a wide temperature range of -40℃ to +85℃, suitable for harsh outdoor and industrial environments. Available in multiple capacitance options (12μF, 20μF, 25μF, 32μF, 40μF, 50μF) with ±10% tolerance, and flexible termination styles (lead wire, fast-on terminal, plug-in connector), they are compatible with all standard gas discharge lamp ballasts.

Key Features & Advantages

  1. Universal Compatibility for Gas Discharge Lamps
    Specifically designed for HID, MH, HPS, mercury vapor, and fluorescent lamps, serving as a direct replacement for most standard lighting compensation capacitors, compatible with all major brands of ballasts.
  2. High-Efficiency Power Factor Correction
    Effectively improves the power factor of lighting circuits from ~0.5 to >0.9, reducing reactive power, lowering electricity bills, and minimizing strain on the power grid, making it ideal for large-scale street and industrial lighting projects.
  3. Premium MKP Dielectric for Longevity
    Constructed with high-quality metallized polypropylene film (MKP) dielectric, featuring self-healing properties, low dielectric loss, and excellent thermal stability, ensuring a long service life of over 30,000 hours and reliable performance in continuous operation.
  4. Wide Operating Range & Environmental Resistance
    Operates reliably at 250V AC 50/60Hz across a temperature range of -40℃ to +85℃, with excellent resistance to humidity, vibration, and electrical surges, suitable for outdoor street lighting, cold storage, and industrial environments.
  5. Multiple Capacitance & Termination Options
    Available in a full range of capacitance values (12μF to 50μF) with ±10% tolerance, and multiple termination styles (lead wire, plug-in connector, fast-on terminal) to meet different installation requirements, simplifying inventory management for bulk orders.
  6. CE Certified Safety & Quality
    Fully tested and certified to CE safety standards, compliant with EN 61048 / EN 61049 and DIN specifications, guaranteeing compliance with international electrical safety regulations and reliable performance in all lighting applications.
  7. Robust Housing Design
    Choose between durable aluminum casing (for excellent heat dissipation and corrosion resistance) or high-strength plastic casing (for lightweight and cost-effective solutions), both with IP20 protection for safe indoor and outdoor use.
