ALH225K161A022 is a 2.2 µF AC filter capacitor rated for 160 Vac, designed for harsh environments and AEC-Q200 qualified. It features a plastic UL94V-0 case measuring 32.0 mm in length, 20.0 mm in height, and 11.0 mm in thickness, with two leads spaced 27.5 mm apart. The capacitor has an ESR of 15.3 mΩ at 10 kHz, a peak dv/dt rating of 32 V/µs, and a maximum rms current of 7 A at 70°C hot spot temperature. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to 105°C, with voltage derating above 85°C. It meets IEC 61071 standards, supports ±10% capacitance tolerance, and offers a life expectancy of 100,000 hours at 70°C under rated voltage. The case is filled with dry resin UL94V-0, and terminals are tin-plated copper. UL recognition E128034 is listed.

Designed for harsh environments, Cornell Dubilier’s new ALH series of AC rated filter capacitors offer 50% greater life than competitive 85/85 THB-rated film capacitors. The Temperature, Humidity at Bias (THB) test exposes parts to the harsh conditions of 85 C at 85% relative humidity with rated voltage applied. CDE’s testing has been validated for 1,500 hours while competitors validate their series for 1,000 hours under the same conditions. This demanding test simulates the extremely harsh operating conditions encountered in many commercial and industrial inverter applications that can cause conventional film capacitors to fail early due to moisture penetration.
The ALH Series is optimized for AC harmonic filtering on the input and output of inverter circuits. Capacitance ranges from 0.22 to 50 uF at 160-450 Vac, 50/60Hz with high rms current ratings for handling higher-ordered harmonics.
The series offers self-healing, metalized polypropylene-film in a robust board-mount package that also meets the rigors of automotive AEC Q200 testing. The solvent-resistant, box-style plastic case and resin-seal are both UL/cUL 94V-0 recognized for construction designs, with tin-plated copper RoHS compliant terminations. Their superior construction makes these capacitors ideally suited for solar, wind, UPS, EV, and other inverters applications that may be subjected to wide-ranging environmental conditions.
