DESIGN
The capacitors consist of a ceramic disc both sides of which
are silver-plated. Connection leads are made of tinned
copper having a diameter of 0.6 mm or 0.8 mm.
The capacitors may be supplied with kinked or straight
leads with a lead spacing of 7.5 mm (0.30") or 10 mm (0.40")
and a lead length from 4 mm to 30 mm. The standard
tolerance on capacitance is ± 5 % or ± 10 % for class 1
capacitors. Encapsulation is made of gold-colored
epoxy-resin, flammable resistant in accordance with
“UL 94 V-0”
