3 FARAD DIGITAL CAPACITOR WITH BLUE DISPLAY
Capacitance .................................……............. 3,000,000 micro farad
Working Voltage ...............................…….….. 21DC
Surge Voltage .......................................……… 24DC
E. S. R. (Equivalent Series Resistance) ..…….. 0.0012 ohm @ 120hz/25
Capacitance Tolerance …………………..…… ±10%
We recommend at least 1 Farad of capacitance per 500 watts of amplifier output. This is a
general rule of thumb and may be adjusted up or down depending on the efficiency and design of
the amplifiers being used. There is no harm in having more than enough capacitance.
DETAILED FEATURES:
a) 3 digital 8 blue display voltage meter that can measure 0.01 DCV range.
b) 3 digits hi-end blue light display DC amperage meter that can measure 1 DCA range.
c) Over voltage limit and low battery voltage limit warning. When the system voltage peeks over
17.5 DCV or LESS than 10 DCV. The buzzer on the PCB will issue an audible noise warning.
d) Reverse pole connecting PCB buzz warning function. If the capacitor is connected incorrectly
by reversing the positive and negative wires during the installation process the PCB will issue
a 45 second noise to warn you.
e) Lowest E. S. R. 24 DCV foil with maximum moment discharge power in lowest E.S.R..
f) Hi-end chrome/black chrome/satin nickel plated finish solid capacitor casing.
To Charge the capacitor:
1. Make your connections from the Capacitor positive and negative output terminals to the
amplifier(s) positive and negative terminals. Do not over-tighten the bolts on the Capacitor!
Caution:
Stripped terminals are not covered under the capacitor’s warranty.
2. Connect the battery ground cable directly to the capacitor, then refer to the attached
drawing.
3. Place the supplied charging bulb or resistor between the positive terminal of the capacitor
and the battery’s positive terminal. Do this for 30 seconds or until the charging bulb goes
out. Caution:
The charging bulb will get hot!
4. Immediately after the charging process, take out the charging bulb from the connecting
wire. And connect the positive cable of the battery directly to the positive terminal on the
capacitor.
5. Follow the attached wiring drawing to connect all wire and parts.
Below is an illustration showing correct wiring for the capacitor.
DISCHARGING THE CAPACITOR:
WHEN YOU WANT TO MOVE THE CAPACITOR FROM THE ORIGINAL INSTALLED
CAR AUDIO SYSTEM. YOU MUST FIRST DISCHARGE THE CAPACITOR USING THIS
PROCESS BEFORE REMOVING THE CAPACITOR FROM THE CAR AUDIO SYSTEM.
To Discharge the capacitor: With the battery power disconnected, place the light bulb or resistor
across the capacitor’s positive and negative terminals until the light goes out or for three minutes
if using a resistor.
