Type 160 Metallized Polyester Radial Lead Capacitorsꢀ
Radial Box Metallized Polyester Capacitors ꢀ
TheꢀTypeꢀ160ꢀseriesꢀradialꢀleadꢀmetallizedꢀpolyesterꢀbox
capacitors are constructed in rugged rectangular plastic
casesꢀwithꢀleadꢀspacingsꢀthatꢀareꢀstandardꢀinꢀtheꢀelectron-
ics industry. All Type 160 capacitors are available in
bulk with a .217” ±.039” lead length, and they are good
for general purpose applications such as bypass, decou-
pling, energy storage/discharge and arc suppression.

If the working voltage (V) is less than the nominal voltage
(Vn), the capacitor can work at higher dv/dt. In this case, the
maximum value allowed is obtained by multiplying the above
value with the ratio Vn/V.
