It is mainly used in the fields of industrial frequency converters and inverter welding machines.
SAIFU
Diversified product line: covering square oil immersed capacitors (such as SFMFO series) and cylindrical thin film capacitors (such as CBB16 series), with a withstand voltage of up to 1400VDC, specially designed for inverter welding machines and high-frequency power supplies, with a price range of 14-4200 yuan (fluctuating according to specifications).
Juhua Electric (Langying Electric)
Power quality governance: Focusing on reactive power compensation and harmonic filtering, introducing European equipment technology, products are used in infrastructure such as metallurgy, power grid, tunnels, etc., emphasizing system level energy efficiency optimization.
Guangda Electric
Explosion proof safety design: The filtering capacitor adopts an aluminum alloy shell and a dual protection mechanism (pressure cut-off+secondary protection), with an efficiency loss rate of less than 6% (60000 hours), suitable for high harmonic scenarios such as medium frequency furnaces and submerged arc furnaces.
3、 Market competition pattern and emerging trends
Regional distribution: East and South China are domestic industrial clusters (such as Shenzhen Tianming and Foshan Langying), relying on the advantages of the electronic manufacturing industry chain.
Technical direction:
Green and low-carbon: lead-free, no PCB insulation oil (Eaton Cooper);
High frequency: Thin film capacitors replace traditional electrolytic capacitors (Saifu DCLink series);
Miniaturization: The Borui Kai RN series promotes the lightweighting of consumer electronics.
Market growth: According to Bezos Consulting's prediction, the global market size of filter capacitors will significantly expand by 2030, driven by new energy inverters, electric vehicles, and fast charging equipment.
