CBB22 400V 2.2UF 225J Pitch Polypropylene Film Capacitor

CBB22 400V 2.2µF 225J Pitch Polypropylene Film Capacitor typically has the following specifications:

General Specifications:

• Capacitance: 2.2µF (microfarads)
• Rated Voltage: 400V (volts AC/DC)
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP)
• Capacitor Type: Film Capacitor (CBB22)
• Pitch: 22.5mm (commonly referred to as “225J”, representing the distance between the leads or terminals)
• Tolerance: ±5% or ±10% (depending on manufacturer)
• Package Style: Axial leads (usually with long wire leads for through-hole mounting)

Electrical Characteristics:

• Rated Voltage: 400V (maximum DC working voltage)
• Dielectric Strength: Typically rated to withstand voltages higher than the working voltage, such as 1.5 to 2 times the rated voltage (600V to 800V in most cases).
• Leakage Current: Typically very low (picoamperes to nanoamperes), as polypropylene is an excellent insulator.
• Temperature Range: Often rated for use between -40°C to +85°C or -40°C to +105°C, depending on the manufacturer’s exact product.

Mechanical Characteristics:

• Lead Material: Tin-plated copper or brass (or similar)
• Package Size (L x W x H): Varies depending on the manufacturer but generally compact to fit in various circuit applications.
• Weight: Typically light, around 10-15 grams.

Applications:

• Motor Drive Circuits
• Power Supplies
• Filtering in AC/DC circuits
• Signal Processing
• High-Frequency Circuits
• Audio Equipment (for low signal distortion)

Features:

• Low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance): This allows the capacitor to handle higher currents and operate efficiently at high frequencies.
• High Stability: Polypropylene film capacitors have excellent thermal stability, which makes them reliable in both low and high-temperature environments.
• Non-polarized: Suitable for AC applications.
