Miflex
KPCU-01 capacitors.
The
KPCU capacitors from Miflex SA, Poland are new to the
audio market. These beautifully constructed capacitors
feature a paper and polypropylene dielectric in a specially
designed configuration with an electrode of high purity
copper foil. The coils are oil-impregnated utilising
a vacuum-based technology, The housing is an insulated
resin paper tube. The internals are incased in a potting
compound reducing the influence of external vibrations.
Characteristics:
•
Insulated resin tube
• Paper and polypropylene mix dielectric
• High purity copper foil electrode
• Axial leadouts
• Leadouts are twisted copper (2 x 0.8mm diameter
wires)
• 600 VDC rated
• Tolerance: 5%
• Dissipation factor :0.0035 at 1Khz
• RoHS compliant
Application
Notes:
For
best results keep capacitors as cool as possible, use
common sense. Do not place next to or touching hot resistors
or under-chassis signal tubes that get hot etc. This
is good practice to follow with any capacitors, especially
paper capacitors. Generally for every 10 degree C increase,
component life is diminished by half.
The line on the label (at the shorter lead-out end)
indicates the outer foil. This should be connected to
the point of lowest impedance/signal output / AC end.
