Kemet – Auto-grade film capacitors for harsh environmental conditions (F862)

Kemet's F862 X2 series metallized polypropylene film F2 capacitors are specifically designed for safety applications in harsh environmental conditions, such as high humidity. The F862 series has a capacitance of up to 4.7 microfarads and a rated voltage of up to 310VAC. It has a fully approved RFI X2 capacitor, which can be used for noise filtering and peak voltage protection when connected in parallel with the mains or in series (such as in a smart meter). . New design enhancements protect against traditional capacitive loss mechanisms for long-term high stability. In addition, the F862 series also meets the stringent requirements of the Automotive Electronics Council's AEC-Q200 qualification. It passed the 1000-hour life test 240VAC at a rated voltage of 85 ° C and a relative humidity of 85%. The company said that typical uses include In series connection with a power supply, a capacitive power supply and an electric meter, these electric meters need to take into consideration harsh conditions such as high humidity.
