Capacitance pF/µF	Pulse rise time V/µsec max. operation
1000 ...4700 6800...0.022 0.033...0.15 0.22	2500 1750 750 500

Approvals:

Country	Authority	Specification	Symbol	Approval-No.
Germany USA/Canada	VDE UL	IEC 60384-14/3 UL 60384-14 CAN/CSA-E60384-14		101355 (440/500VAC) 89748 (300VAC) E 100438 (300VAC)

* If safety-approved EMI suppression capacitors are operated with a DC voltage being above the specified AC voltage rating the given approvals are no longer valid (IEC 60384-14).
Furthermore the permissible pulse rise time du/dt (F_max.) will be subject to a reduction according to
F_max. = F_r x √2 x U_AC / U_DC
if the DC operating voltage U_DC is higher than √2 x U_AC

Mounting recommendation

To minimize or avoid shock and/or vibration stresses to terminating wires and solder connections we recommend to fix voluminous resin-potted MP capacitors as from e.g. PCM 22.5mm in an appropriate way since for constructional reasons they do not sit tight on the board.

Packing

Available taped and reeled up to and including PCM 22.5mm
