PAPER/MYLAR, HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITORS
ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
APPLICATIONS
Series A Paper/Mylar High Voltage capacitors have
superior electrical properties. They are oil impregnated,
non-polar, wound capacitors. They contain no PCB’s.
Series A Capacitors come in several styles: Oval Wrap
& Fill (AW Style); Round Wrap & Fill (AR Style); Axial
Epoxy Case (AE Style). They are available the Regular
size (3 Size code) and custom sizes to meet specific
customer requirements.
Contact our Engineering Department for special sizes,
configurations, capacitance values and AC applications
with Anti-Corona construction at all frequencies.
Custom metal enclosures are available. Custom
designed Feed Through capacitors (AQ Style) are also
available for filter applications to specific requirements.
OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE
Range: -55°C to +125°C with voltage derating, 100%
of listed voltage rating from -- 55°C to + 85°C, derate
linearly to 60% of the listed voltage rating at + 125°C.
LIFE TEST
Series A capacitors shall be capable of withstanding a
test of 250 hours at 125°C and 140% of the DC
derated voltage. The voltage shall be applied to each
capacitor through its individual current-limiting resistor
as determined from the formula R = 0.025/C, where C
is the nominal capacitance in farads and R is in ohms.
The test procedures shall be in accordance with MIL-C-
25, except as noted herein. Not more than one failure
in twelve shall be permitted. Any one of the following
shall be considered a failure.
a. A change in capacitance of more than 10% from
it’s initial value.
b. An increase in Dissipation Factor to a value
greater than the initial acceptance limit.
c. A decrease in Insulation Resistance to a value
less than 30% of the acceptance limit for 25°C.
d. A permanent short or open.
ENGINEERING DATA SHEET
SERIES
A
VIBRATION
Series A capacitors shall be capable of withstanding a
vibration test in accordance with MIL-STD-202, Method
201. The following details and exceptions shall apply:
a.
Mounting.
The capacitor body shall be rigidly
mounted by the entire body length to the vibration test
fixture. The leads shall be soldered to rigidly supported
terminals and so spaced that the length of each lead
from the capacitor is 1/2
±
1/8 inch from the edge of
the supporting terminal.
b.
Measurement during Vibration.
During the last
cycle in each direction, an electrical measurement shall
be made to detect intermittent contacts or open or
short circuiting.
c.
Examination After Vibration.
Capacitors shall be
visibly examined for evidence of mechanical damage.
MOISTURE RESISTANCE
Series A Styles AE (epoxy encased) and Style AW
(wrap & fill) capacitors are not intended for exposure to
high humidity conditions over extended periods of time.
For stringent environmental conditions, Wrap & Fill and
Epoxy Case capacitors should be used in encapsulated
or hermetically sealed circuitry.
TERMINAL STRENGTH
Series A capacitors utilize tin-plated, copper-clad steel
wire terminals which shall be capable of withstanding
the following test without mechanical damage to the
capacitor or terminals:
a.
Pull Test.
The capacitor shall withstand a steady
pull of 5 pounds axially to the leads for 1 minute.
b.
Bend Test.
The wire lead terminals shall be bent
at a point of 1/4 inch from the body of the capacitor,
first 90 degrees in one direction, then back to the
original position, and then 90 degrees in the opposite
direction.

VOLTAGE RATING
100% of listed voltage rating from -- 55°C to + 85°C, derate linearly to 60% of the listed voltage rating at
+ 125°C.
VOLTAGE TEST
Reference MIL-STD-202, Method 301. Surge current is limited to 1 ampere maximum. Voltage applied for
1 minute (maximum) @ + 25°C. Dielectric strength test is performed terminal to terminal as follows:
≤
10 KV = 200% of the DC voltage rating.
12 KV = 175% of the DC voltage rating.
15 KV = 160% of the DC voltage rating.
≥
15 KV = 150% of the DC voltage rating.
