These non-inductive multilayer metalised polyester through-hole film capacitors features a small size, high dV/dt capability, very low ESR at high frequency and a self-healing capability. They are suitable for use in high frequency switching power supplies, noise suppression, EMI reduction and long life applications.
The self-healing capacitors are infused with a microcrystalline polymer sealant and exterior tape wrap that protects the capacitor element from moisture, allowing it meet 85°C / 85% RH requirements for demanding military vehicles and aerospace applications.
Available in capacitance values ranging from 0.1-10.0µF, voltage ratings of 100, 250, 400 and 500VDC, Type RA capacitors are terminated with radial leads to cover a broad range of applications in power electronics where high density capacitors are needed for board-level DC filtering.
