KEMET R79 MKP Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitors

KEMET R79 MKP Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitors are non-inductive type wound devices with a rated voltage of 160VDC, 250VDC, 400VDC, and 630VDC and an operating temperature range of -55°C to +105°C.  The leads of the R79 series are tinned wires with low thermal conductivity. These capacitors are encapsulated with a self-extinguishing thermosetting resin in a box material that meets UL 94V–0 requirements. KEMET R79 MKP Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitors are suitable for timing, oscillator circuits, and high-frequency coupling and decoupling applications.
