Aluminum Electrolytic Press-Fit Capacitors

KEMET's aluminum electrolytic Press-Fit capacitors eliminate the soldering process while still providing reliable electrical connections and the same vibration performance as soldered snap-in terminations. They are the solution for multiple production and quality issues.

  • Eliminate the manufacturing problems of soldering onto thick PCB copper tracks which act as heat-sinks
  • Eliminate fractured solder joints/cold-solder
  • Skipping the solder operation allows for easy insertion after the production washing process
  • Quick exchange of components in the field

The evolution from snap-in terminals, the Press-Fit capacitor series combine the strong electrical and long life performance of the KEMET snap-in capacitor with the solution providing Press-Fit connection.

In addition to solving users' solder issues, the Press-Fit series offers:

  • Compact size
  • Long life: up to 18,000 hours at +85°C or up to 9,000 hours at +105°C (VR, IR applied)
  • High ripple current
  • High voltage: up to 550 V
  • Excellent surge voltage capability
  • 35 mm, 40 mm, 45 mm, and 50 mm diameters with 4- or 5-pin configuration
  • Optimized designs available upon request
