CONDIS MEDIUM VOLTAGE CAPACITORS AND VOLTAGE DIVIDERS

OVERVIEW
Maxwell is a leading capacitor manufacturer with first-in-class products quality and reliability, excellent electrical & mechanical strength, long lifetime and the ability to respond to individual customer requirements. Maxwells MV capacitors and voltage dividers are based on a dry capacitor technology. The resin moulded capacitors are based on CDAS technology, the companys latest technological development based on capacitor windings made of metalized polypropylene dielectric and impregnation with gas. Within MV capacitors and voltage dividers tens of flat windings are connected in series. For optimal performance and longevity these elements must be as identical as possible. Key element of Maxwells proprietary CDAS technology is the automated stacking and series connection of the flat windings through laser welded connections. Maxwell is the only supplier of MV components in the world to completely automate its winding and assembly process. Further advantage of the automated process is to perform a quality check on each individual element as it is wound, resulting in a perfect precision of the final product.
