Aluminum Capacitors

Radial Very Low Impedance

FEATURES

• Polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitors,

non-solid electrolyte

• Radial leads, cylindrical aluminum case with

pressure relief, insulated with a blue vinyl sleeve

• Charge and discharge proof

• Very long useful life:

4000 to 10 000 hours at 105

°C, very high reliability

• Very low impedance or ESR respectively,

• Excellent ripple current capability

• Lead (Pb)-free versions are RoHS compliant

APPLICATIONS

• Power supplies (SMPS, DC/DC converters) for general

industrial, EDP, audio-video,

automotive and telecommunications

• Smoothing, filtering, buffering

MARKING

The capacitors are marked (where possible)

with the following information:

• Rated capacitance value (in µF)

• Tolerance on rated capacitance, code letter in accordance

with IEC 60062 (M for ± 20 %)

• Rated voltage (in V)

• Date code, in accordance with IEC 60062

• Code indicating factory of origin

• Name of manufacturer

• Upper category temperature (105 °C)

• Negative terminal identification

• Series number (136)
