General Purpose, Pulse and DC Transient Suppression
A50 Series Metallized Polyester Film, Axial, 50 – 1,000 VDC
Overview
The A50 Series is constructed of metallized wound polyester
film and encapsulated in self-extinguishing material meeting the
requirements of UL 94 V–0. Protection consists of polyester tape
wrapping and thermosetting resin end fill.
Applications
Typical applications include blocking, coupling, decoupling,
bypassing and interference suppression in low voltage
applications such as automotive. Not for use with the mains.
