• Operating Temperature Range: Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C to cover typical audio electronics environments.
• Endurance: Specified for 1000 hours at 85 °C with capacitance change within ±20% after test, supporting reliable long‑term operation under rated conditions.
• Ripple Current (120 Hz): 2.65 A at 120 Hz, suitable for low‑frequency ripple and smoothing duties in audio power supplies.
• Leakage Current Specification: Leakage current limit defined as not more than 3√(C·V) µA after 5 minutes at 20 °C (per series specification).
• Capacitance Tolerance: ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) requirements; marked with gold lettering on a black sleeve.

Typical Applications

• High‑grade Audio Amplifiers: Bulk filtering and power smoothing on supply rails to support stable, low‑noise power delivery for amplifier stages.
• Professional Audio Equipment: Energy storage and decoupling in mixers, preamps, and studio electronics where tonal fidelity is important.
• HD Audio Systems: Support for power supply reservoirs in high‑resolution playback and consumer audio systems requiring refined sound quality.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑centric design: TYPE‑II (Gold Tune) grade and series specifications are focused on delivering the tonal qualities sought in high‑grade audio equipment.
• High capacitance in a compact package: 6800 µF in a φ25 × 40 mm can provides substantial energy storage while minimizing board footprint.
• Snap‑in mounting for robust assembly: Snap‑in terminals enable reliable mechanical retention for through‑hole PCB layouts and easy installation.
• Defined endurance rating: 1000 hours at 85 °C with controlled capacitance and leakage characteristics gives predictable lifetime behavior under rated conditions.
• Low‑frequency ripple handling: 2.65 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports smoothing of mains‑derived power supplies and regulator inputs.
• Measured low‑temperature stability: Series data includes defined impedance ratios at low temperatures (e.g., Z(−25 °C)/Z(+20 °C) and Z(−40 °C)/Z(+20 °C)), supporting performance across the specified temperature range.
