High voltage capacitors for tesla coil.
Not only does it have to withstand high voltages more than double the supply voltage but it has to cope with extremely high currents at high frequency approx 100khz to 300khz.
High voltage capacitors that can survive the grueling conditions of a tesla coil are hard to find and therefore inevitably expensive if you do manage to locate some.
The radio frequency ac electric currents produced by a tesla coil did not behave like the dc or low frequency ac current scientists of the time were familiar with.
A charismatic showman and self promoter in 1891 1893 tesla used the tesla coil in dramatic public lectures demonstrating the new science of high voltage high frequency electricity.
Refine your search for high voltage capacitors tesla coil for high voltage capacitors tesla coil.
All our core coil tesla coils use special built beefed up capacitors intended for optimum and long term reliable performance.
200ma 15kv 100ns high voltage diode hv rectifier high frequency.
It is used to produce high voltage low current high frequency alternating current electricity tesla experimented with a number of different configurations consisting of two or sometimes three coupled resonant electric circuits.

High voltage 30 kv capacitors array hipotronics 7 x 01uf for tesla coil heavy duty capacitors array.
0 1uf 10kv high voltage capacitor hv tesla coil ham.
A tesla coil is an electrical resonant transformer circuit designed by inventor nikola tesla in 1891.
In lectures at columbia college may 20 1891.
My latest mmc uses cornell dubilier s 942c20p15k f arranged in 5 trays one not shown each tray giving 25nf capacity rated to 36kv.
This eliminates breakdown when used with the proper value external resistors included.
This gives a total of 54 caps per tray for a grand total of 270 caps for the 5 trays.
They also use transformers with special beefed up internal secondary hf chokes wound to block damaging voltage transients.
Tesla used these circuits to conduct innovative experiments.
0 01 uf each was used in 3 mw magnetron modulator hv pulse forming network.
0 04uf 10kv high voltage capacitor hv tesla coil ham.
1a 10kv 100ns high voltage diode hv rectifier high frequency.
Now you have high voltage capacitor for your high voltage experiments.
The capacitor in the tank circuit has a very hard life indeed.
