Capacitors are passive devices that are used in almost all electrical circuits for rectification, coupling and tuning. Also known as condensers, a capacitor is simply two electrical conductors separated by an insulating layer called a dielectric. The conductors are usually thin layers of aluminum foil, while the dielectric can be made up of many materials including paper, mylar, polypropylene, ceramic, mica, and even air. Electrolytic capacitors have a dielectric of aluminum oxide which is formed through the application of voltage after the capacitor is assembled.
Characteristics of different capacitors are determined by not only the material used for the conductors and dielectric, but also by the thickness and physical spacing of the components.
Made in Germany. 1" diameter x 2" length. Founded in 1948 by Heinz Fischer and Alfred Tausche, F&T Capacitors has over 60 years of experience in producing some of the finest capacitors available today. F&T Caps are known for their great tone and reliability.
JJ Electronics aluminum electrolytic capacitor. Low impedance, low ESR, wide frequency range. For power supplies, high-end exlectronics, and industrial electronics.
The aluminum case capacitors are supplied with PVC sleeve insulation and a safety vent located on end deck. Load life is 1000 hours (at maximum operating temperature, rated voltage, and AC current load)
CE Manufacturing USA Made Multi Section Can Capacitor. Reproduced to exact Mallory specs using original Mallory machinery.
20/10/10/10uF 450VDC. Used In Dynaco PAM-1 Preamplifiers. This is not a standard design of FP Cap, as the 20 Mfd is B(lank). Standard rolling would be D(iamond) as the high cap section.*
FP / Twist lock style, Solder tabs.
-10%, +50% Tolerance
85°C temperature rating.
1 3/8"D X 2 1/2"H.
*C-EC20-10-10-10 does contain all four values. This note is indicating that the four tabs for each capacitor section are not marked according to the standard method. The three 10 uF section are marked by D, square and triangle. The one 20 uF section is not marked with a symbol (i.e. blank).
