Axial-lead and soldering star capacitors
Long useful life
up to 150
°C
B41691, B41791
Applications
For automotive applications up to 140
°C
Features
Long useful life, 2000 h at up to 150
°C
Low ESR also at 63 V DC
High ripple current capability
High vibration resistance
Shelf life up to 15 years at storage temperatures up to 40
°C.
To ensure solderability, the capacitors should be built into the
application within one year of delivery. After a total of two
years' storage, the operating voltage must be applied for one
hour to ensure the specified leakage current.
Construction
Charge/discharge-proof, polar
Aluminum case with insulating sleeve
Negative pole connected to case
Terminals
Axial leads, welded to ensure perfect electrical contact
Also available with soldering stars
Taping and packing
Axial-lead capacitors will be delivered in pallet package.
Capacitors with d

30 mm are also available taped
on reel.
Soldering star capacitors are packed in cardboard.
