For Jensen or Mundorf, you can put 2 or 3 in series, parallel with R, to get double or triple of voltage. Thanks. Hi,

I need some help on this topic. I am currently upgrading my 211 amp. The power caps for the high voltage are a problem. I was looking for the 4 pole Jensen because of the good reputation. But i cannot place them in series (about 950 VDC working voltage). I am planning to place them in series with a resistor connected parallel. Now i am not sure wich cap to use, i ‘ve already seen MUNDORF M-lytic SI 560uF@400VDC on ebay, but i am not sure if this is a solution. The Config is: 10uF 1600V Pio – 10H – 10uF 1600V Pio – 15H > mundorf or Jensen ?? Hope you can help me out on this, Thanks Hello Jimmy!

But beware, too big of capacitance may produce unexpected result, like the reducing of speed and dynamic. It's not easy to find the equilibrium point between the speed and the adequate capacitance. The best way is to try it. Thanks. Hi Jacob,

Nothing special. The 4-pole wiring instruction is available on the Jensen website. You can download and check from there. Basically the + input (from the first choke) goes to + input on the 4-pole. Then the + output from the 4-pole goes to the next choke. The ground could be remain connected together (or separated) depends on your ground design. Thanks. Hi,

Did you connect a choke between the 2 caps within the 4 pole case? Thanks, Dan I bought some Jensen 4 pole caps, but am still unsure how to wire them, so I thought your schematic would help.

Multiple filters are better. Perhaps you can try brand like Hammond or even more expensive one. Thanks. Hi Dan,
