The new B43305 and B43508 series from EPCOS are snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitors that offer converter solutions along with significant space savings. They feature the same electrical properties as earlier versions, but are smaller by up to two case sizes–corresponding to a height reduction of up to 5 and 10 mm, respectively. The B43305 series covers the capacitance range from 68 °F to 3300 °F and is available for voltages between 200 and 450 V. It has an operating life of 2000 hours at a temperature of 85 degrees C. The B43508 series covers the capacitance range from 82 °F to 2700 °F at voltages between 200 and 450 V. The product is designed for use at temperatures of 105 degrees C and then attains an operating life of 3000 hours. Find more product information on the EPCOS website.
