For better performance in HID Lighting and HV Ballasts,
Type SF oval and round oil filled metallized polypropylene
lighting capacitors are built for operating in the high tem-
perature environments for high intensity discharge (HID) light-
ing and other high voltage ballast applications. Each HID
catalog capacitor includes an external resistor that discharges
the capacitor to less than 50V in one minute, and the oil
filled process assures better reliability than dry capacitors.
