ICAR, established in 1946, is a company focused on the research, development, and production of capacitors and capacitor components. They manufacture various types of capacitors, including those for power electronics applications and power factor correction.
The ICAR MKV series consists of self-healing bi-metallized paper capacitors specifically engineered for heavy-duty AC applications. These capacitors are certified under UNI EN 29001 (ISO 9001) and are suitable for use in DC link input filters for industrial and traction inverters, as well as AC filters for inverters and UPS systems. They also serve as snubber capacitors for semiconductors.
