Types 951C and 953B, Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitors
Protected Metalized Polypropylene Film Capacitors Target UPS Systems and AC Filtering Applications
Design incorporates fuse protection, UL 810 Approved for Fail-Safe Operation
Cornell Dubilier announces the availability of its newest Metalized Polypropylene Film Capacitors for UPS, AC power supplies and general AC filtering applications. The 951C and 953B Series offer strong performance for filtering in applications where high ripple currents are encountered and benign end-of-life failure mode is essential. The 951C has a cylindrical body with axial leads, while the 953B has a rugged radial box form factor.
Both capacitors offer a fused, segmented metallization pattern, providing significant circuit protection. UL 810 approval assures fail-safe operation under fault conditions. The metallization pattern is deposited on a low-loss, high-grade polypropylene dielectric. The built-in fuse-links limit capacitance loss to a small segment within the capacitor. This is in contrast to the larger areas of uncontrolled capacitance loss observed with non-segmented types. This capability is not usually available for board-mounted capacitors.
The axial-leaded 951C Series is offered in values ranging from 0.825 to 40µF, while the 953B spans 2.5 to 50µF. Voltage ratings in both series are available at 160, 250 and 275Vac. Both types offer -40 to +85° C performance and meet the requirements of UL 94V-0 for flammability.
With a 10,000 hour service-life expectancy without derating, series 951C and 953B capacitors will excel at providing reliable filtering and smoothing for today's demanding applications in UPS systems, AC power supplies and more.

Type QAS, Arc Suppressor/Snubber Network
Type QAS will extend the operating life of electronic and electro-mechanical devices by reducing and/or eliminating the electrical arcing, noise, and EMF. These electrical conditions often cause early failures in relays, switch contacts, and solid-state components such as SCRs and TRIACs.

3 CELL DSF & DGH
Three-cell devices offer greater energy potential and power output than single or dual-cell parts in standard PCB layouts
3-cell DSF & DGH capacitors provide very fast power discharge that cannot be matched by conventional capacitors or batteries. That large capacity makes it possible to support brief power interruptions, supplement batteries, or even be used in place of batteries in many applications.

TYPE MXT, X2, EMI/RFI Suppression Capacitors, Harsh Environment
Type MXT Series Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitor, designed to suppress conducted electromagnetic/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) at a circuit’s power input. These capacitors are perfect for use in harsh environments having met the demanding 85/85 THB (Temperature, Humidity, Bias) test requirements. Class X2 capacitors, like the MXT, are typically connected across the AC input to prevent interference from spreading through power lines or other devices on the same circuit.
