DISSIPATION FACTOR
IEC 60384-9
Class 1 0.1 % max. when C 30 pF
(at 1 MHz; 1 V where C 1000 pF, and at
DESIGN
1 kHz; 1 V where C > 1000 pF)
The capacitors consist of a general purpose MLCC
For C < 30 pF: DF = 100/(400 + 20 x C)
The lead wires are 0.5 mm and are made of 100 % tinned DF = Dissipation factor in %;
copper clad steel wire C = Capacitance value in pF
The capacitors may be supplied with straight or kinked Class 2 2.5 % max. (at 1 kHz; 1 V)
leads having a lead spacing of 2.5 mm and 5.0 mm
Class 3 5 % max. (at 1 kHz; 1 V)
Coating is made of yellow colored flame retardant epoxy
resin in accordance with UL 94 V-0
