VISHAY MKT373 Series 0.47µF Film Capacitor, 250V DC, Radial

The VISHAY MKT373 Series is a premium radial, potted DC film capacitor designed for general-purpose electronic applications. It utilises a mono construction with metallised polyester film (PET) dielectric, offering stable performance and reliable capacitance for a variety of circuit functions.

This component is specifically engineered for blocking and coupling, bypass, and energy reservoir duties, making it a versatile choice for power supplies, audio circuits, and signal conditioning. Its robust design features a flame-retardant plastic case and epoxy resin encapsulation, achieving a UL-class 94 V-0 rating for enhanced safety in your projects.

Built for longevity, it boasts a Grade 1 (long life) performance rating and can operate across a wide temperature range from -55°C to +105°C. It meets the demanding Climatic testing class 55/105/56 according to IEC 60068-1, ensuring reliable function in environments with high humidity and temperature cycling. The capacitor is supplied with tinned wire leads for excellent solderability and features a through-hole, radial leaded mounting style with a standard 22.5mm lead spacing for easy board integration.
