Type 715P/717P, Orange Drop®, High Voltage, Polypropylene Film/Foil
Type 715P/717P are high AC voltage, film/foil polypropylene
capacitors. Well suited for high AC voltage applications requiring
corona free performacnce. These capacitors are ideal in high
frequency, high pulse current applications and offer excellent stability,
virtually linear temperature coefficient.
Highlights
- Very low dissipation factor
- High dV/dt rating
