VISHAY Ceramic Disc Capacitor 2200pF 6kV ±20% Z5U 9.53mm

The VISHAY 564R60GAD22 is a robust, radial-leaded, single-layer ceramic disc capacitor engineered for demanding DC and high-voltage pulse applications. Its core is a precision ceramic disc, with both sides silver-plated for optimal conductivity. The connection leads are crafted from tinned copper wire with a diameter of 0.032 inches, offering excellent solderability and corrosion resistance. This component can be supplied with either radial kinked or straight leads, maintaining a standard lead spacing of 0.375 inches (9.53mm) for versatile PCB mounting.

Constructed with a choice of durable resin coating or flame-retardant epoxy resin compliant with the UL94V-0 safety standard, this capacitor ensures reliability and safety in circuit design. It is characterised by low losses and high stability, delivering consistent performance where it matters most. Its Z5U dielectric provides a high capacitance value within a compact form factor, making it an ideal solution for space-constrained designs that require significant energy storage.
