MARKING
DESIGN
Marking indicates capacitance value and tolerance in
accordance with “EIA 198” and voltage marks.
The capacitors consist of a ceramic disc both sides of which
are silver-plated. Connection leads are made of tinned
copper having a diameter of 0.6 mm or 0.8 mm.
OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE
-30 °C to +125 °C
The capacitors are supplied with kinked leads and lead
spacings of 5 mm or 7.5 mm and 10 mm. Encapsulation is
made of epoxy-resin, flammable resistant in accordance
with “UL 94 V-0”
TEMPERATURE CHARACTERISTICS
Class 1: S3N
