GE CK95BE311J
Product Overview
The GE CK95BE311J is an HVDC (High-Voltage Direct Current) capacitor under the Critical Power series of General Electric (GE). It is specifically designed for power electronic equipment, industrial frequency converters, and new energy power generation systems (such as wind power and photovoltaic inverters). This capacitor adopts metallized film technology, featuring high energy density, low loss, and long service life, making it suitable for key applications including high-frequency filtering, DC support, and energy buffering.
The core values of the CK95BE311J are as follows:
- High Reliability: Self-healing design that automatically restores insulation performance in case of local breakdown.
- Low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance): Reduces heat loss under high-frequency operating conditions.
- Wide Temperature Operation: Adapts to severe temperature fluctuations in industrial environments.

Structure and Composition
The CK95BE311J adopts a wound structure, with main components including:
- Dielectric Layer: Polypropylene film (thickness ≈3μm), providing high dielectric strength and low dielectric loss.
- Electrode Layer: Vacuum-evaporated metal (zinc/aluminum), whose self-healing property can repair local breakdown points.
- Encapsulation Material: Flame-retardant epoxy resin (UL94 V-0), preventing arc diffusion.
- Terminals: Tin-plated copper pins, supporting PCB soldering or bolt fixing.
Key Features and Advantages
-
Excellent High-Frequency Performance:
- Low ESR (≤10mΩ) and low inductance (≤20nH), suitable for DC-Link filtering of IGBT frequency converters (e.g., when used with the GE AF-650 frequency converter).
- High capacitance stability (ΔC/C ≤ ±2% @ -40°C to +85°C).
-
Long Lifetime and Reliability:
- Self-healing property can withstand transient overvoltage (such as IGBT switching surges).
- 100,000-hour lifetime design reduces maintenance costs.
-
Industrial-Grade Durability:
- Passed the 85°C/85% RH double 85 test, adapting to humid environments.
- Complies with the IEC 61071 power capacitor standard.
Application Fields
The CK95BE311J is mainly used in the following scenarios:
- Frequency Converters/Inverters:
- DC bus (DC-Link) filtering to suppress high-frequency ripples.
- MPPT circuits of photovoltaic inverters (e.g., GE Solar LV5).
- Industrial Power Supplies:
- PFC (Power Factor Correction) circuits of switching power supplies (SMPS).
- New Energy:
- Energy buffering in the intermediate circuit of wind power converters.
Typical Application Case
In industrial frequency converters (e.g., GE AF-650), the CK95BE311J acts as a DC-Link capacitor and works with the IGBT module (FF450R12KE3) to smooth the DC voltage ripples after rectification.
Related Products
- CK95BE561J: A 0.56μF/950V capacitor in the same series, an upgraded version in terms of capacitance.
- GE AF-650: General-purpose frequency converter, a typical supporting device.
- FF450R12KE3: Infineon IGBT module, a commonly used switching device.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation Points
- Avoid mechanical stress during PCB layout (pin pitch is strictly designed to 15mm).
- Ensure balanced current distribution when used in parallel (symmetrical wiring is recommended).
Maintenance Recommendations
- Regularly check the capacitor’s appearance (immediately replace if bulging or liquid leakage occurs).
- Use an LCR meter to measure capacitance attenuation (the capacitor is invalid if the capacitance drops by ≥10%).
