Medium Power Film Capacitors
FFV3 General Description
DC FILTERING
DC FILTERING
The series uses a non-impregnated metallized polypropylene
or polyester dielectric, with the controlled self-healing process,
specially treated to have a very high dielectric strength in operating conditions up to 105°C.
The FFV3 has been designed for printed circuit board mounting.
General tolerance: ±0.5 (±0.020)
Dimensions: millimeters (inches)

LIFETIME EXPECTANCY
STANDARDS
One unique feature of this technology (as opposed to electrolytics) is how the capacitor reacts at the end of its lifetime.
Whereas, with an electrolytic, there is a strong risk of explosion of the case. However, with our line of film capacitors, the
capacitor will simply experience at the end of life a loss of
capacitance of about 2%, with no risk of explosion.
Please note that this is theoretical, however, as the capacitor
continues to be functional even after this 2% decrease.
