Need an easy-to-install electrolytic capacitor? This one from RS PRO is a radial type, which means both leads come out of the same side. To mount it, simply run the leads through the holes in a printed circuit board (PCB).


The capacitor stores energy by using electrolytes to create electrostatic fields. It's safe to use thanks to the safety vent, which protects against explosions if the maximum voltage is exceeded.


As it complies with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) standards, this product contains only minimal amounts of any harmful materials. Electrolytic capacitors like this one are commonly used to prevent voltage fluctuations in filtering devices, as well as to store power in flash lamps and reduce high-frequency noise in power supply signals.
