KEMET Safety Capacitor, Metallized PP, 0.47µF, X2, 275VAC

The KEMET R46 Series Safety Capacitor is a high-performance metallized polypropylene (PP) capacitor designed for reliable suppression in AC line applications. Classified as an X2 safety capacitor, it is specifically engineered to provide protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and to suppress voltage transients, ensuring the safety and longevity of connected electronic equipment.

Featuring a robust radial box package with 2-pin through-hole mounting, this capacitor offers stable performance across a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +110°C. Its construction guarantees excellent self-healing properties and high reliability under demanding conditions. The capacitor is rated for 275VAC across its X-suppression class, with a high dv/dt rating of 200V/µs, making it suitable for handling fast voltage changes.

With a precise capacitance of 0.47µF and a tolerance of ±10%, it delivers consistent filtering performance. Its compact dimensions and standard 22.5mm lead spacing facilitate easy integration into circuit board designs, while the humid environment rating (GRADE II, Test Condition A) ensures dependable operation in varied climates.

This component is an essential choice for enhancing the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and safety of power supplies, motor drives, lighting ballasts, and other mains-connected devices. Its durable build and certified safety classification make it a trustworthy solution for both industrial and consumer electronic applications.
