MKP 336 2 X2

Vishay BCcomponents

Interference Suppression Film Capacitors

MKP Radial Potted Type

Insulation resistance

APPLICATION NOTES

• For X2 electromagnetic interference suppression in standard across the line applications (50/60 Hz) with a maximum mains

voltage of 310 Vac

• For series impedance applications we refer to the application note www.vishay.com/docs/28153/anaccaps.pdf

• These capacitors are not intended for continuous pulse applications. For these situations, capacitors of the AC and pulse

programs must be used.

• The maximum ambient temperature must not exceed 110 °C (125 °C for less than 1000 h) for C ≤ 470 nF and 110 °C for

C > 470 nF

• Rated voltage pulse slope:

If the pulse voltage is lower than the rated voltage, the values of the specific reference data can be multiplied by 435 Vdc and

divided by the applied voltage
