Overview

TheR79Seriesisconstructedofmetallizedpolypropylenefilm

with radial leads of tinned wire. The radial leads are electrically

welded to the metal layer on the ends of the capacitor winding.

The capacitor is encapsulated with a self-extinguishing

thermosetting resin in a box material meeting the UL 94V–0

requirements.

Applications

Typical applications include timing, oscillator circuits, high

frequency coupling and decoupling applications. Not suitable for

across-the-line application (see Suppressor Capacitors).
