Alternative Replacement Cross Reference for High Voltage Doorknob Capacitor from Vishay,TDK,AVX,Murata,HVCA

High Voltage Ceramic Capacitor Screw Terminal Type, also called “High Voltage Doorknob Capacitor”, is an industry grade electronic component.The well known brands are American company Vishay, AVX, HVCA and Japanese player Murata and TDK. These type of ceramic capacitors wildly use in X-ray generator, digital radiography, non destructive testing, laser and plasma equipment, Tesla Coil, Marx generator and many more. Since the entire high voltage machine market is decline. Major player gradually quit this market and leading doorknob capacitor “hard to find” item. End customer seeking for replacement solution for continue their existing running project and need technical support for new product development.

Murata is first company to release EOL notice for HV doorknob capacitor (DHS series, white color)In mid 2018.AVX also announce will not any more in position of production of doorknob capacitor (HP/HW/HD/HE series, use red color epoxy resin) in October 2018. Vishay and TDK is the only two major brand still in production, but lead time always keeping up to 18 weeks and more, and seldom to accept custom specification production order.Due to high cost they are not economic option for mass production especially in BRICS countries like Brazil, Russia, India, which in need of economic and reliable doorknob capacitor to produce various model high power Medical X-ray machine and airport inspection machine. HVCA brand also call Dean Technology CKE from U.S.A, this brand seems just OEM item. Their product can be found from their own HV distribution channel.


HVC Capacitor from Southern China, is professional manufacturer of high voltage doorknob capacitor, with nearlly 10 years experience as alternative and replacement solution to above mention American and Japanese brand capacitor. HVC already earning good fame by close cooperation with lots Fortune 500 company like GE, PHILIPS, NIKON, KONICA Minolta and many more. 


 HVC brand High voltage doorknob capacitor also have following unique advantage：

1).HVC Capacitor is only manufacturer in mass production of 100kv and 150kv doorknob capacitor. While “well known” brand only present up to 50kv.

2).HVC Capacitor control with whole production process, from powder making, ceramic disc, to soldering assembly, and finally epoxy encapsulation. The “well known” brand always announce they are hardly to purchase the raw material, which is rare-earth element and strictly controlled by major develop country. Outsource raw material cause well known brand in higher product cost and result in long production lead time.

3).HVC Capacitor open to custom production, available wide range spec from 10kv to 150kv, capacitance from 100pf to 15000pf. low custom production MOQ, which is essential for new project development.

Following listing full spec for HVC Capacitor as alternative replacement and cross reference to Vishay, TDK, Murata, AVX, HVCA:
