Polyester Film/Foil (100 V– 1000 V) and Polypropylene Film/Foil (1200 V - 2000 V)
Type PVC
Polyester and Polypropylene Film/Foil Capacitors
The Type PVC is a sturdy film and extended foil con-
struction ideal for bypass and coupling applications.
Extended foil construction is as good as it gets for low
DF and high current applications. The PVC is encap-
sulated in a rugged, flame retardant, epoxy coating with
the leads crimped to provide secure seating on printed
circuit boards.
