C4D

MKP Series

LOW INDUCTANCE CAPACITORS

GTO APPLICATIONS

The capacitors of C4D Series are designed with reinforced

metallized polypropylene dielectric film.

These capacitors are suitable to withstand the heavy current

pulses usually met in GTO protection.

The axial connections allow to reduce series inductance

and provide strong mechanical mounting reliable electrical

contact and good thermal dissipation of heat produced during

service.

Applications:

- Protection of GTO

- High ripple current D.C. filtering

- Medium frequency tuning

- Pulsed lasers

Presentation:

- Cylindrical plastic case

- Mechanical fixing by means of brass connections,

- Hole M8 threaded ( M6 on request )
