Vishay MKT470 Series Film Capacitor, Metallized PET, 3300pF, 400VDC, 200VAC, ±5

The Vishay MKT470 Series capacitor is a radial-leaded, metallized polyester film (PET) capacitor designed for high reliability and stable performance across a wide range of electronic applications. Featuring a 3300pF capacitance with a precise ±5% tolerance, this component is built to deliver consistent electrical characteristics. Its robust construction includes a flame-retardant plastic case and an epoxy resin coating over tinned wire leads, ensuring durability and safety in demanding environments.

This non-polarised capacitor utilises an insulating polyester film as its dielectric, offering excellent self-healing properties and high insulation resistance. It is rated for a DC voltage of 400V and an AC voltage of 200V, making it suitable for both DC and AC filtering, coupling, and blocking circuits. With a standard 5mm lead pitch, it is designed for straightforward through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards (PCBs).
