Great presentation....i have a question....In industrial application of induction furnaces, these capacitors tend to inject excess reactive power into the grid which affects the power factor as a result of over compensation. Most foundry industries are facing low power factor penalties because of this situation. How best can this scenario be solved without affecting the operation of the induction furnace?
What do you have in mind? I got other pulse caps and ofcause i forgot some in this video. Have a 2kJ pulsecap at 15kV sitting on shelf next to the camera :)
@@KaizerPowerElectronicsDk Hahaha that sounds like sheer happiness. Maybe explode some thin wires? Shink some Penneys with magnetic force? It sounds like you are planning to build a tesla coil. The large capacitor bank and charger may be useful if you aren't planning to make a solid-state one. Stay safe! Speaking of photoninduction, I personally loved his channel and he uploaded regularly ----- until he published a video about how he played with high energy electronics with killing himself in mind. I thought I might have got into HV electronics as a hobby for the same reason. Many RUclipsrs just got into messing with plasma arcs in sync with isolation from this pandemic. I wonder why.
The Celem capacitor you presented is a 50 years old design. not really up to date. Look at Celem C-CAP model, this is a game changer in power capacitor for induction
The average amateur is properly more likely to find these old capacitors on ebay, than order a brand new C-CAP from Celem :) It sure does look nice, but I guess some of the "much better" lies in the mandatory water cooling. The old ones rely on cooling in the connected busbar, so just there you have a much lower thermal resistance, and can then push things further.
The first Russian capacitor would probably make a very good plate capacitor for tube transmitters. No more than 10 people in a public group? That's insane!
I did actually buy them many years ago to be used in a VTTC with 16 parallel 6P45S tubes, but due to the insanity in matching those tubes to conduct evenly the project was scrapped.
but the question is what is the bargain price ;)
I thought the ebay auction was still running until all sold, but I guess I stopped it at some point... 40 Euro + shipping (got 4 or 5 of them)
oh that is crazy good i will get one for sure!
should i email you or something? i know shipping is not cheap but still i cant find such things here

Am interested in some capacitors for an induction heater
Love seeing your arsenal!

Active PFC front ends, or switched banks of inductance or capacitance, for real large installations.
I would like to know what you are asking for the huge capacitors ??? Where are these located, as shipping just might kill me. Thanks
Denmark, so shipping prices are high, even within Europe.
@@KaizerPowerElectronicsDk What would shipping be to usa 19464????
@@KaizerPowerElectronicsDk What would water cooled caps cost and shipping to USA 19464???
@@victoryfirst2878 let me get back to you
I remember seeing coaxial film capacitors made by a Spanish company which had internal water cooling.
Maybe use the big capacitors to produce videos photoninduction style.

Thanks for sharing such stuff..else we would never be able to see them in our third world country...we love your videos
Once you find the right places to look, you can find it locally. I used to think the same about Denmark vs USA and all its superior surplus stores.

low value current sharing resistors are usually used on the output of power transistors. Could the same be done with tubes.
@@simontay4851 my experience is that it has to be done by tweaking the feedback to the grid in the class c oscillator used.
