ASC Capacitors

ASC Capacitors ASC is a Capacitor manufacturing (plastic film capacitors). Markets include HID lighting, power supplies, inverters, snubbers, power factor correction, filtering, motor run, instrumentation and custom design applications. ASC is known for producing quality products at a competitive price. All of ASC's products are designed, manufactured, and tested using lean manufacturing processes and state-of-the-art automated equipment. ASC's robust design method produces capacitors that are meant to last-typical designs have a life rating of 100,000 hours-and ASC's use of vertical integration means ASC can offer a quality product at a competitive price. ASC is the leading manufacturer of custom film and foil capacitors. In addition, ASC is fully equipped to perform testing to most Mil standards.
ASC custom products include capacitors enhanced with AC and DC metallization techniques; very high-voltage and low-ESL capacitors; specialized formats and sealing methods; high-temperature dielectric capacitors for aerospace, military and hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) applications; custom connectors, specialized mounting brackets, unique termination configurations; and more. American Shizuki Corporation ( ASC ) is a wholly owned subsidiary of ShiZuki Electric Group, Nishinomiya, Japan.

IBS Electronics is an authorized ASC Capacitors distributor, offering a wide selection of electronic components and supporting hundreds of reference designs. As an ISO 9001:2008 certified distributor of electronic components, you can trust IBS Electronics to offer you low prices on ASC Capacitors and the highest level of quality assurance in the industry.

ASC - Passive Components

ASC capacitorsAmerican Shizuki Corporation (ASC capacitors), located in Ogallala Nebraska, has been designing and manufacturing film capacitors for over 60 years.

The facilities are ISO 9000/2001 certified and utilize lean Robot Armmanufacturing process along with state of the art, fully automated manufacturing and test equipment.

Design Engineering is forte allowing to meet a myriad of specifications in both AC and DC film capacitors.

ASC Polypropylene and Oil CapacitorsASC polyproplylene and oil capacitors feature sealed metal 'oil can' construction and hefty four-way solder lugs on the bottom. The capacitor itself is metalized polypropylene film suspended in a bath of vegetable oil: some claim that this oil provides a damping effect in audio circuits. These capacitors are E-Z to mount to your chassis; just bore the appropriate size round hole and install with the mounting clamps described below. Some folks mount the clamp under the chassis and some mount'em on top. For a DYN-O-MITE appearance, polish the smooth aluminum case or get an industrial painter to coat 'em with black textured Sherwin-Willams Polane-T epoxy paint.
