    22uF / 400V ESR value ?

    Everyone,

    I got ESR 1.1 Ohm for 22uF /400V electrolytic capacitor,
    Is it bad ?

    Cheers

    make & series would help.

      It's written Ltec and 105 degree....

        Have you searched for any of the data sheets for any of the Ltec caps ?
        The first three results are all Ltec data sheets.

          look for a 2 or 3 letter code.

            It's TY....from datasheet...I can not see ESR value ?

              they arent listed as low impedance, so it's common that the value is not given.
              how is the capacitance?

                it was 26 uF and when I measure with analog metre....it stopped on 10K on 10K scale...can not be completely discharge...

                  it may be o.k.
                  but if it's over the rated level it would be good to see the leakage level because sometimes a cap goes leaky and the uF rises at the same time.

                    How can I know the leakage level ? from analog meter ? Does it say a leakage on it and needs to be replaced ?

                      you cant, only some digital component testers give you that data.

                        I'd better replace it then...

                          that is simplest.

                            Replace electrolytic cap with bipolar one
                            by Adenitz
                            Hello,
                            can I use this cap:
                            https://www.tme.eu/en/details/ues1h4...tors/nichicon/

                            Capacitor: electrolytic; bipolar; THT; 47uF; 50V

                            to replace this capacitor: Electrolytic Radial E 47uF/50V 6.3x11 RM2.5 105°C Jamicon

                            What exactly I can expect to install bipolar electrolytic cap instead a regular one?

                            Thanks.

                            Replacing electrolytic caps by solid caps on old motherboards
                            by madscientist750
                            I do have several old pc motherboards which i recapped 10 year ago and some of those caps are bulged now.
                            I would like to upgrade them using solid capacitors. I do use them for testing and helping some alternative operating systems.
                            I would like to ask if such an upgrade can be done, what should i have in mind when replacing electrolytic by solid caps and if such thing exist, if there are caps list for old motherboards. I would have to figure out what caps needs each motherboard and then prepare a list to try to ask for them on some electronics stores.

                            Electrolytic cap endurance
                            by Perry Babin
                            From what I've found, the endurance of a liquid electrolytic cap is determined by the loss of electrolyte. If a cap is rated for 1000 hours. That's typically for a straight run test. How would the life vary if the cap is intermittently heated to its rated temperature (105C). Maybe for an hour at a time then cooled back to 30-40C (just a random number). Would the life still be 1000 hours?

                            Does it make a difference in the life expectancy if the cap is heating from ripple current (internal heating) instead of from the external ambient temperature?

                            Why do polymer capacitors...

                            How do organic polymer caps compare to liquid electrolytic for reliability
                            by Perry Babin
                            I have a situation where a power supply is commonly abused and the 12v supply caps take a beating. They don't commonly fail but they run hot. I was thinking about going from a liquid electrolytic (Panasonic FC and Nichicon HE) to an organic polymer. The values have been 330uF. I typically use a higher-than-needed voltage to get a lower ESR. The supply is operated from 12v.

                            If not organic polymer, what would be the caps that could take the most abuse?
