Type 225P capacitors are wound from the most reliable polyester film and alum- inum foil available and are protected by a rugged conformal coating of orange epoxy. They may be operated up to +125 C with proper derating. The combination of proven dependability and extensive availability through CDE distribution make the 225P an ideal choice for many commercial and industrial electronic applications, from power supplies and instrumentation to audio amplifiers and test equipment. Operating Temperature Range: Humidity Testing: The standard operating temperature range for Units subjected to 95% relative humidity for 72 polyester film is -55C to +85C. The 225P hours with no voltage applied at +75C. After 4 may be operated at full voltage within this hours of drying minimum product of insulation temperature range. resistance and capacitance shall be 5,000 M -F. The 225P may be operated up to +105C DC Voltage Life Test: provided the DC working voltage is reduced to 70% of the +85Crating (full rating), and 500 hours at +85C at 150% of rated voltage. After up to +125C with a 50% reduction from the test capacitance shall not have changed by more +85C rating (full rating). than 5% of initial value, insulationresistance shall For more specific details regarding operation not have decreased by more than 50% ofinitial value above +85C please contact our design and dissipation factor shall not have increased to engineering department. more than 1.0%. In addition, there should be no The maximum operating temperature for the open or short circuits, and no sign of visibledamage. 225P polyester film capacitors is +125C. Typical Temperature Characteristics: Dielectric Withstanding Voltage: Units shall withstand a DC potential of 250% of rated voltage applied between terminals for not more than 5 seconds. AC Voltage Applications: The A-C component of the 225P s voltage rating has been specified to assure that corona will not be encountered when the capacitor is operated within the noted specifications. We encourage you to contact us if you have any concerns about operating voltage, temperature limits, etc. Lead Bend Test: After 3 consecutive 180 bends. No damage. CDE Cornell Dubilier 1605 E.
