Capacitor Life Curve
The DC bus inside the inverter uses a large capacitor as shown in the diagram below.
The capacitor handles high voltage and current as it smooths the power for use by the
inverter. So, any degradation of the capacitor will affect the performance of the inverter.
Capacitor life is reduced in higher ambient temperatures, as the graph below demon-
strates. Be sure to keep the ambient temperature at acceptable levels, and perform
maintenance inspections on the fan, heat sink, and other components. If the inverter is
installed on a cabinet, the ambient temperature is the temperature inside the cabinet.
