Type AFK_V, High Vibration Surface Mount Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
AFK_V Series surface mount capacitors offer high durability for rugged applications and long life, handle 30g
The AFK_V Series offers low impedance and up to 5,000 hours life @ 105 ºC, at rated voltage. Available capacitance values range from 10 μF to 6,800 μF, with voltage ratings of 6.3 Vdc to 100 Vdc.
Packaged in a metal V-chip, SMT case, the new capacitors use a combination of three mechanical enhancements that provide greater vibration resistance as compared with the standard SMT package. A support terminal was added to suppress vibration of the molded support base to the PCB, and therefore reduce contact stress. The support base was extended to create a high retention wall structure to better support the capacitor body. In an effort to reduce internal vibration of the capacitor winding, a larger diameter lead wire is used, which is very effective at eliminating internal lead breakage at critical stress points.

Type QAS, Arc Suppressor/Snubber Network
Type QAS will extend the operating life of electronic and electro-mechanical devices by reducing and/or eliminating the electrical arcing, noise, and EMF. These electrical conditions often cause early failures in relays, switch contacts, and solid-state components such as SCRs and TRIACs.

3 CELL DSF & DGH
Three-cell devices offer greater energy potential and power output than single or dual-cell parts in standard PCB layouts
3-cell DSF & DGH capacitors provide very fast power discharge that cannot be matched by conventional capacitors or batteries. That large capacity makes it possible to support brief power interruptions, supplement batteries, or even be used in place of batteries in many applications.

TYPE MXT, X2, EMI/RFI Suppression Capacitors, Harsh Environment
Type MXT Series Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitor, designed to suppress conducted electromagnetic/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) at a circuit’s power input. These capacitors are perfect for use in harsh environments having met the demanding 85/85 THB (Temperature, Humidity, Bias) test requirements. Class X2 capacitors, like the MXT, are typically connected across the AC input to prevent interference from spreading through power lines or other devices on the same circuit.
