INSTALLATION:
Parts should be soldered using a heat sink between the soldering point and the part using a soldering iron rated 18-30 watts.
Remove all traces of flux or other contamination resulting from the soldering operation. An intermittent conducting path
between the leads, at high voltage, could cause breakdown. Soldering temperature should not exceed +300°C.
PART NUMBER AND ORDERING INFORMATION
Ceramic cased capacitors, with a new, unique design concept which eliminates potential problems associated with conven-
tional epoxy cased epoxy potted capacitors.
Major application is high voltage power supplies. High voltage capacitors are also utilized on high voltage meter multiplier and
RF circuits.
