Castor Cap

Castor Cap

Characteristics:

- Compact design for PCB assembly
- Shakeproof 4 pin connectors
- Self-healing polypropylene dielectric
- Customized values ​​upon requestFilm capacitor Castor Cap
Castor Cap is a self-healing polypropylene film capacitor in a compact board mount design. The contact is made via 4 PCB pins. Capacitances from 4.2µF - 32µF and voltages from 600Vdc - 1700Vdc are available. The temperature range is 40°C – 85°C. Other values ​​are available upon request.
The main areas of application are renewable energies, aviation technology, defense technology and lightning applications.

Castor Cap with press-fit contacts

Characteristics:

- Cost-effective PCB assembly without soldering
- Vibration-resistant up to 50g
- Low contact resistance
- Extremely gentle press-in processFilm capacitor Castor Cap with press-fit contacts
The Castor Cap film capacitor with press-in contacts has the same technical properties as the standard Castor Cap, but with EloPin® brand press-in contacts.
The press-in technique is a solderless, electromechanical connection method. A permanent, gas-tight connection is created between the press-in area of ​​the pins and the metallized hole wall.
The EloPin complies with the specifications of DIN EN (IEC) 60352-5 as well as the increased requirements for automotive applications according to DIN (ISO) 60 352-5.
The use of press-fit contacts brings the user significant cost advantages with greater reliability than comparable soldered connections.
