Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF rated capacitance at 400 V for high-voltage polarized energy storage and filtering.
• Package & Mounting — Radial can with snap-in terminals for secure chassis or PCB mounting where snap-in installation is preferred.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Rated for operation from −25°C to +85°C with proven endurance: withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated for 750 mA at 120 Hz and 1.073 A at 50 kHz, supporting applications with continuous ripple loading.
• Electrical Reliability — Capacitance tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C) and leakage current defined as I ≤ 3√CV (μA) after 5 minutes at 20°C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) for 400 V specified at 0.20 max.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General Purpose – High‑Voltage Filtering — Polarized 400 V, 68 µF rating makes this capacitor suitable for smoothing and bulk energy storage in general-purpose high-voltage circuits.
• General Purpose – Power Supply Ripple Management — Specified ripple current ratings (750 mA at 120 Hz, 1.073 A at 50 kHz) support sustained ripple handling in power supplies and converters.
• General Purpose – Durable Operating Environments — Designed for continuous operation up to 85°C with a 3000‑hour ripple endurance specification for reliable long-term use.

Unique Advantages

• Long Endurance: 3000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple current provides predictable lifetime behavior for sustained thermal and electrical stress.
• High-Voltage Capability: 400 V rating allows use in higher-voltage DC circuits where polarized electrolytic capacitance is required.
• Clear Performance Limits: Specified ripple current, leakage current formula, and tan δ value (0.20 max at 400 V) enable straightforward design margining and verification.
• RoHS Compliance: Meets RoHS requirements (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), supporting regulatory conformity in finished products.
• Snap-In Mounting: Radial can with snap-in terminals provides robust mechanical retention for chassis or PCB-mounted power assemblies.
