Film safety capacitors
NIC Components Europe has introduced a new range of radial leaded interference suppression film capacitors. The NPX series has safety agency approvals from numerous bodies including UL and CSA. All parts from the range are lead (Pb) free and fully RoHS compliant.
In addition to UL and CSA certification, the range has VDE, SEV, SEMKO, NEMKO, DEMKO, FIMKO and CE approval.
The devices have a metallized polypropylene moulded box construction and a specification that includes ‘X2’ across-the-line (250VAC / 275VAC) rating. A capacitance range of 1000pF to 1.0µF and an operating temperature range of –40°C to +100°C helps designers find a suitable part for most applications.
With its non-inductive self-healing construction the NPX series offers improved safety compared to ceramic alternatives. Metallized polypropylene film capacitors also typically provide a more economical solution to EMI noise suppression than ceramic devices.
Applications for NPX series capacitors exist in products such as power supplies, power management circuits, power invertors, voltage doublers and AC/DC converters. Parts can be supplied on tape for high-speed insertion to help reduce PCB assembly costs.
