Tourmax capacitor Made in Japan High quality, spare parts in original quality. Form and function correspond to the original part. Condenser units are used over ignition coils from another ignition system of Batteriez??ndanlagen. They have been specially developed for high performance engines that need a strong spark. This ensures that the fuel mixture is always ignited in the cylinder at the right time. Capacitors are best suited for this operation as ignition coils. The ignition coil acts only as a transformer, as the primary circuit capacitor with a high voltage supply (400 V). A so-called SCR (semiconductor device) takes over in a “process” such as the charging and discharging of the capacitor’s energy accumulator. Current can only flow when the positive pole is towards the anode and the negative pole is at the cathode. The passage of electricity is made possible by the & quotcancello & quot. The necessary & quotpulse gate & quot can be provided for example by an NC contact. Once the thyristor is turned on, the voltage stored in the capacitor is discharged through the primary side of the ignition coil the current drops and the current flow is blocked by the semiconductor. Meanwhile, it induces the ignition coil winding which is traversed by the current, a high voltage pulse in the secondary winding. This then jumps to the spark plug electrodes like an ignition spark. Advantages: – Strong and consistent spark – High Z??ndspannungsreserven – Better combustion – More power
