VISHAY 159 PUL-SI Electrolytic Capacitor 68µF 450V Snap-In

The VISHAY 159 PUL-SI series is an ultra power, long life, snap-in aluminium electrolytic capacitor, designed for demanding applications that require high reliability and performance. Its cylindrical aluminium case is insulated with a blue sleeve and features very small dimensions for its large capacitance range, making it an excellent choice for space-constrained designs.

This polarized capacitor uses a non-solid electrolyte and delivers a low ESR with a high ripple current capability, ensuring stable operation and efficient energy storage. With a useful life of 5000 hours at 105°C (based on series rating) and a specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 105°C for this model, it provides long-term dependability in high-temperature environments. The snap-in terminals ensure secure mounting on PCBs.

Typical applications include solar PV inverters, general purpose industrial and audio/video systems, smoothing and filtering, standard and switched mode power supplies, and energy storage in pulse systems. The capacitor operates over a temperature range of -25°C to 105°C and features a capacitance of 68µF with a voltage rating of 450V DC, ±20% tolerance. Its 10mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (43mm height, 33mm width, 15mm depth) facilitate straightforward integration into your designs.
